Studies in North America have shown that vegetarians have a smaller chance of getting cancer or having heart attacks or strokes, and generally live a couple years longer.
Which could be easily attributed to a more healthy lifestyle in general due to the health concerns that lead them to vegetarianism. In order for this o be convincing, you'd need to take two sets of people taken at random and have one eat meat and the other vegetarian.
