Vegetarianism

Vegetarians do not eat meat, fish, and poultry.

The NHA points out that the scientific support for vegetarianism is now strong. The NHA is the oldest vegetarian organization in the United States. Natural Hygieniests have advoctated vegetariamism for more than 150 years, for reasons of personal and public health, responsible land use, and compassion for other sentient beings.

Today the National Health Association still supports and teaches a diet style that is vegan, however we allow room for individual preferences recognizing that a limited amount of animal products in the diet may not be a health risk for those in good health. Our role as a National Health Organization advocating ideal nutrition necessitates that we maintain our allegiance to good science and research in the health field and not historical or predetermined guidelines or policy.
