 Generally speaking, when you ask most mystics about the best diet, what you hear most often is that the vegetarian diet is the way to go. There are a number of reasons why this is, including that the human body seems to be designed for it, being far more similar to mammals that are herbivores than those of carnivores. We don't have pointy teeth like carnivores do, and our intestines are very long like that of sheep or deer, when compared to the very short digestive tract of a lion or tiger. It also seems to be the case that eating meat generally is very heavy in the body and keeps our energy more rooted in the lower centers. However, beyond all of that, the most important thing about the food that we eat is that we should try and get it as clean as possible. Even if we're eating meat, it's better to eat food that has not been treated with chemicals or subject to horrible suffering in life. We are what we eat after all, so let us do our best to eat clean and always be thankful for our meals.
