Vegetarian UK
Vegetarians and vegans
Vegetarians (people who don't eat meat) and vegans (people who don't eat or use any animal products) are becoming increasingly common in UK culture. A recent survey showed that three million people were vegetarian. Visit a British supermarket and you will see a wide range of vegetarian ingredients and prepared meals on the shelves, including vegetarian sausages and vegan cheese.
So why are Brits cutting out meat? Many are unhappy about the poor treatment of animals and the effects of meat and fish production on the environment. Worries about food safety (for example BES or “mad cow disease”) also play a part. According to the Vegetarian Society, a meat-free diet could help reduce the risk of certain cancers and heart disease, as well as obesity and high blood pressure.
Organic farming
Another rising trend is in how UK food is produced. Many people are rejecting GM (genetically modified) food and intensive farming practices. They want their food to be organically produced. Organic farmers use very few or no chemicals, pesticides or fertilizers and organic meat is produced without the use of drugs and antibiotics.
Organic food
According to the Soil Association, three out of every four UK households now buy some type of organic food. Some get organic meat, fruit and vegetables from farmers' markets, where products are sold directly to the consumer. Others have a box of organic fruit and vegetables sent to their homes every week. Although it\s often more expensive, fans of organic food say it tastes much better!
A. A healthy diet
B. A balanced diet
C. Many people buy organic products in their local supermarket.
D. More and more people are deciding not to eat meat or use animal products.
E. A healthy soil reduces disease and helps crops grow strong and healthy.
F. Others choose to change their eating habits to improve their general health.
G. Organically farmed animals also have more living space and more nutritious food.

There's no question that secondhand smoke kills, A recent American Journal of Public Health study showed that nonsmokers working in smoky places had three times the amount of carcinogen（致癌物）in their body than nonsmokers working in smoke-free locations.
