Einstein wanted to be vegetarian.

I was researching Eindtein’s personal philosophy when making the podcast: “Albert Einstein and the God Particle:

And discovered this quote:

“Although I have been prevented by outward circumstances from observing a strictly vegetarian diet, I have long been an adherent to the cause in principle. Besides agreeing with the aims of vegetarianism for aesthetic and moral reasons, it is my view that a vegetarian manner of living by its purely physical effect on the human temperament would most beneficially influence the lot of mankind..”

Ok. I'll play. I see you this:

“Nothing will benefit human health and increase the chances for survival of life on Earth as much as the evolution to a vegetarian diet.”

― Albert Einstein

Talking to the converted here! Both in sex and veganism! I’m a whole food vegan, low oil, no processed products. I was interested in Einstein’s ‘intuition’ about diet since he put much store in this inner sense of what is right. And at a time when there was not so much debate about it. He believed that rational science was the servant of intuition1
