Question

Why does vegetarian habit help us in getting more energy?

Answer 1

due to the presence of glucose in vegetables

Answer 2

We know that, vegetarians obtain food directly from plants while non- vegetarians get the food from animals. Animals (herbivores) contain 10% of food energy as compared to plants (producers). For example; the same amount of producer which supplies say 1000 J of food energy to a vegetarian will provide only 100 J of food energy to a non-vegetarian. Hence, a vegetarian will be at an advantageous position.
