General Health Considerations
The lacto-vegetarians in India are not a particularly "healthy" group. They tend to develop huge bellies. One reason could be that they actually eat very little vegetables, feed mainly on grains and pulses.
Grains are not a natural source of nourishment for Man. In fact grains are products of civilization, developed from grass. The human body is not designed by nature to eat grass or grain.
An Indian doctor did much research on the subject and showed that many allergies common in India vanished when all grains were eliminated from the food! There is no evidence that vegetarian food is healthier than a balanced non-vegetarian diet. A vegetarian diet has also to be balanced to be healthy!
