Dear Nick San,

Thank you very much for your question. I think that it is very important for every Buddhist monk, or nun, to keep their helthy condition. Therefore if vegitarian foods are good for their health, the vegitarian foods are very nice, but if the vegitarian foods are not good for them, the vegitarian foods are not always good.
