How do you reconcile with the fact that animals die for the food you eat?

r/

This is a really hard one for me. Was not really sure what other sub to post this in. I have switched on n off to being completely plant based to adding some meat in there and I notice my body does usually react positively to it. But.. I have a hard time accepting that there has to be lives lost for me to eat..

How do u get over or reconcile this psychological conflict if I do choose to continue having animal products?

I hope this makes sense

Thanks in advance 💙
