A new study, quoted by the Daily Mail, shows that 84 percent of vegetarians eat meat again, with 53 percent returning to the local menu after 1 year of vegetarianism.
More than half of vegetarians are tempted by local delicacies a year after eating their substitutes, and a third of vegetarians return to meat consumption after only 3 months.
Former vegetarians say they have lacked the support of friends to maintain their diet. People who ate meat around them tempted them too much. Besides, they didn't like the attitude of the carnivores, who described them as strange.
Australian scientists have long objected to a vegetarian diet, as according to their studies, people who do not eat meat are 18% more likely to develop depression.
The risk of panic attacks and feelings of excruciating anxiety is 28% more likely in vegetarians. A similar US study a month ago found that switching to a vegetarian diet increases the risk of developing diabetes.
A study by the American animal rights organization Humane Research Council shows that 88% of participants often consume meat and fish.
The large-scale survey was conducted among 11,000 Americans, of whom only 2% followed a vegetarian diet. 10% of the volunteers stated that they had followed a vegetarian diet in the past, but then returned to meat.
The study found that the average age from which to switch to vegetarianism is 34 years. 58% of respondents said they switched to a plant-based diet to be healthier.
65% of former vegetarians say they quickly switched from vegetables to meat - within a few days. Most of them say that chicken is the first meat they eat.
Although 84% of vegetarians eat meat again, 37% of them say they would become vegetarian again.
