Any Vegetarians or Vegans Here?

I just drove by a cat (poor kitty!) that became road pizza, and this query popped into my head.

Are any of you vegans or vegetarians and if so, how have you benefited from this way of eating?

Personally, I can and often do not consume meat and I _can't_ bring myself to prepare a meal that requires touching raw meat or chicken. Just going past the meat/poultry section of the grocery store grosses me out.

Besides the aesthetics, if I do consume meat, I live to regret it later. Let's just say it takes a long while to digest. Chicken is less of a problem.

If we could, can this discussion stay as much as possible within the parameters of talking only about how a vegetarian or vegan diet is beneficial to one's body? Please, no focusing on the political/social issues that I know are very relevant and could make a good discussion for another thread.
