0520 Vegetarianism - a podcast by tbs eFM

Today’s theme: Vegetarianism


With upcoming Buddha’s Birthday to be celebrated on Tuesday (May 22nd), we look in to vegetarianism, an act of practicing vegetarian diet. It is deeply connected to the Buddha’s philosophy. When Buddha first started spreading his philosophy to his five followers or monks, he emphasized the importance of cherishing all existing form of life on earth. What does a vegetarian diet look like? How can we practice vegetarianism here in Korea? We look into facts and discuss practicality with experts in the studio.

A vegetarian diet centers on eating more wholesome, plant-based foods and cutting out animal products like meat, seafood, eggs, and dairy. What are the nutrition that we’re most likely to miss?

People sometimes just presume that having a plant-based diet will automatically make you lose more weight and become healthy. Is it always the case?
