A Vegetarian Lifestyle



All the products at eSutras Organics are vegetarian. We also have lots of products that are vegan as well. We here at eSutras support all types of lifestyles and we think vegetarianism is a very beneficial choice. Not only are you not supporting the sometimes cruel mistreatment of animals, you are also not exposed to some of the diseases and illness eating meat sometimes warrant; mad cow, bird flu, and salmonella to name a few.

Being a vegetarian also gives you certain health benefits over omnivores. A vegetarian diet tends to be healthier than most diets because vegetarians eat more fruits and veggies as a substitute. Most vegetarians are more aware of what goes into their bodies whereas lots of people who eat meat don’t check to see particularly what is in their food. A notable example is the now media-villianized “pink slime”. Pink slime is essentially a byproduct created from low-quality beef trimmings and connective tissue, treated with ammonia gas to kill bacteria. Uproar has been spreading about removing the component from food and luckily lots of companies are getting behind this movement.

Vegetarianism may have a link to treating or reversing heart disease and reducing the risk of cancer. A low-fat vegetarian diet is the single most effective way to stop the progression of coronary artery disease or prevent it entirely. Cardiovascular disease kills nearly a million people and is the leading cause of death in the United States. Studies have shown mortality rate for cardiovascular disease is lower in vegetarians. And because whole grains, legumes, fruits and vegetables are so high in complex carbohydrates, they supply the body with plenty of energizing fuel.

Here are a few eSutras Organics vegetarian and vegan friendly products!

·eSutras Organics Energy Medley Brain Fuel - Raw almonds, walnuts, dates, sunflower seeds, coconut, strawberry and vegan chocolate help make up this delicious blend of energy boosting grains, fruits and nuts.

· eSutras Organics Semi-Sweet Vegan Chocolate Chips - Luxurious deep and velvety 70% cacao dark chocolate. Rich with our signature dark cocoa these chips are created by a precise blend of deep-roasted cocoa beans and hand-selected ingredients.

Partake of the beautiful Lotus to inspire your mind. It sedates and seduces..

Lotus - Its God's favorite flower...Its mysticism may also be linked to the  mild narcotic or sedative effects   from flowers that are eaten, smoked or steeped in wine and drank. Also called the world's most beautiful flower, the lotus is the most sacred, and it seems there never was a time when man did not adore it.....Of all the myriad buds and blooms, the most revered and esteemed--by God and man--is the magnificent lotus in the sub continent and all across China and Japan. According to Buddhism and Hinduism, within each human inhabiting the earth is the spirit of the sacred lotus. It represents eternity, purity and divinity and is widely used as a symbol of life, fertility, ever-renewing youth and to describe feminine beauty, especially the eyes. One of the most common metaphysical analogies compares the lotus' perennial rise to faultless beauty from a miry environment to the evolution of man's consciousness--from instinctive impulses to spiritual liberation.
