No, they do not.
According to Dwyer, vegetarians' longevity is similar to or
greater than that of non-vegetarians, but is influenced in
Western countries by vegetarians' "adoption of many healthy
lifestyle habits in addition to diet, such as not smoking,
abstinence or moderation in the use of alcohol, being physically
active, resting adequately, seeking ongoing health surveillance,
and seeking guidance when health problems arise."

And from your own link:
Lifelong vegetarianism is linked to a reduced risk of breast
cancer, and this is MOST LIKELY BECAUSE OF THE LARGE NUMBER OF
VEGETABLES EATEN, according to a new study.
WHETHER OR NOT ABSTAINING FROM EATING MEAT HAS A ROLE IN THIS
PROCESS, HOWEVER, IS UNCLEAR....
ONE OF THE PROBLEMS IN FIGURING OUT THE EFFECTS OF VEGETARIAN
DIETS ON CANCER RISK IS THAT MOST VEGETARIANS IN WESTERN
COUNTRIES STOP EATING MEAT ONLY IN ADULT LIFE, WHEN THE RISK OF
CANCER MAY HAVE ALREADY BEEN INFLUENCED.

We're among the healthiest in the world -- within six years of the

"Poor children" already receive care and treatment at taxpayer expense,
and many of them receive preventive care at taxpayer expense. That's
just a canard you leftists trot out in support of socialized medicine.

Bullshit. There is no "typical" American diet. There are plenty of
people who don't eat wisely very often, and plenty of others who eat
healthful diets MOST of the time.

It's a religion, not a diet, and it's based on a form of paganism which
puts man and beast on the same plane (which contradicts the Torah).

False. We are not frugivores, we're omnivores.
Primates eat a wide range of foods, and are omnivorous, in
general.

Consumer Reports also noted:
[O]rganic produce tastes no different than "conventionally"
grown produce, and any nutritional differences there might be
between them are likely so subtle as to evade detection.
The most notable difference, of course, is the 57% premium over the cost
of the safety-tested conventional produce.

Nearly all the organic products sold in the US fit my description, not

Then why do you keep responding to my posts, dummy?
