If you take the meat out of your diet, not only will you reduce the chance of having heart disease or cancer, you can now have your life insurance premiums reduced by up to 6%. Scientific tests have proven that non meat eaters can look forward to a 40% less chance of getting some cancers and nearly 40% for heart disease. Currently there are 2.2 million vegetarians in the UK and a further 1.3 million prepared to make the switch to become meat free within 12 months according to a survey run by Animal friends Insurance, a not for profit organisation.
The insurance industry have evolved a lot recently and now offer more tailored schemes taking a lot more into account when concluding the cost of a premium as opposed to the traditional black and white policies.
Elaine Fairfax from the animal friends insurance said that the current system is unfair as being a vegetarian has a highly positive affect on your lifestyle and life expectancy which should be rewarded with reduced premiums.
The new policy provided by animal friends can offer up to 6% off your premiums and is underwritten by the insurer Liverpool Victoria.
This could be the start of insurance companies making further reductions available if customers were to improve their lifestyle by exercising more, eating a little healthier or going for more health checks. Reductions can also be made to your policy if you are a non smoker.
The government will support many of these new dynamic policies as it will encourage people to live a healthier lifestyle.
