Re: "Do you know of any data that shows that "vegetarians" have either
longer life spans or have lower cancer rates ??"

There is a good body of evidence from the "Seventh Day Adventists", a Christian sect who are primarily vegetarians. If memory serves me, their cancer and heart disease rates are half the normal population. As for others comments about vegetarians not getting B12, there is also evidence that healthy intestinal flora generate B12, even in vegetarians. By healthy I mean a digestive system not accustom to Big Macs, fries, dingdongs, antibiotics etc.

once a vegetarian but no longer.
