...Vegetarianism doesn’t always mean no meat, no poultry, no dairy, no fish, and no seafood; there are different types of vegetarians and each type has different food restrictions. There can be confusion regarding vegetarianism, the lifestyle a vegetarian lives and the diet they follow. Some people may wonder what vegetarians eat, what they do not eat, and how they stay healthy and survive without the proteins and nutrients from meat and other animal products. Since there is more than one type of vegetarian there is no clear answer for the questions of what they eat, what they avoid and how they stay healthy; because each type of vegetarian follows different guidelines in their life which gives them different choices of items to consume. Some types of vegetarians eat meat and animal by-products; others may avoid meat but consume some animal by-products, while others may be more restrictive in their diet and avoid any types of meat and animal by-products. Regardless of the type of vegetarian an individual is every type follows the same main diet which focuses on large amounts of leafy greens, vegetables, fruits, healthy and whole grains, legumes, seeds, and nuts. Vegetarians fill their diets with protein packed grains such as quinoa, couscous, bulgur wheat, barley, and brown rice; they also ensure that they receive large amounts of proteins by eating large servings of legumes such as beans, lentils, and chick peas, to substitute for missing the proteins for restricted or limited...

...vegetables, grains, and nuts. Others believe that it is okay to eat certain types of meat. Did you know? There are actually there are several types of vegetarians. Most people hear the word vegetarians and automatically think “ Rabbit food”. Well that is just not the case; let me give you some insight on the different types. Vegans are the most controversial of the three. These types of vegetarians do not eat meat of any kind. Including excluding any types of foods derived from animal products or animal products of the finished process such as sugar, and some wines. Pesco-vegetarians, this category has three types itself. The first one here to start with is the ones who do not eat beef, chicken, or pork, but will eat fish. The second type here is called Polo- these types eat no red meat, or fish, but they will eat chicken. Finally in this list we have what are called Pesco-polo which eat no red meat, but will eat chicken and fish.

...Vegetarianism There are many types of vegetarians; some of the most common are Vegans, Lacto-vegetarians, and Lacto-ovo- vegetarians, Pesco-vegetarians, and Pollo-vegetarians. Vegans live on only plant foods; some of these things include vegetables, fruits, nuts, seeds, grains, and many more. Lacto vegetarians eat vegetables they also include dairy into their diets. Pesco vegetarians add fish into their diets, and Pollo vegetarians eat poultry such as chicken, duck, game, and birds. Pollo vegetarians exclude omit red meat out of their diets. There are many health benefits of a vegetarian lifestyle. As said by the Harvard Women’s Health Watch in Should I Become a Vegetarian?, “If you stop eating red meat, you’ll eliminate a risk factor for colon cancer… if you eat more fruits and vegetables, you’ll gain some protection against cancer.” And, “…vegetarians are 24% less likely to die of coronary heart disease.” There is a long list of the benefits of a vegetarian diet. It is mainly because being on a vegetarian diet reduces a lot of cholesterol, and saturated fats, which, come from animal origin. It’s no secret that a low-fat diet that is high in fruits and veggies is beneficial and that a vegetarian diet can help get that. But is it really what’s best for children? After all, children need a well balanced meal with plenty of protein for proper growth. Can they get that on a vegetarian diet? What about vegetarianism during pregnancy and breast-feeding? There are many...

...Vegetariánstvo je považované za alternatívnu formu výživy orientovanú prevažne na rastlinnú stravu. Veľakrát ide okrem spôsobu stravovania aj o životnú filozofiu zameranú na starostlivosť o zdravie (vrátene telesného pohybu a psychohygieny) a úctu k zvieratám (odmieta sa využívanie zvierat na konzumáciu, testovanie, obliekanie a iné účely). V poslednom období sa čoraz častejšie tento spôsob stravovania objavuje aj u nás. Prívrženci vegetariánstva upozorňujú často až nekriticky len na výhody a odporcovia naopak iba na riziká. Pravda však je, ako to už väčšinou býva, niekde uprostred. História vegetariánstva Odmietanie mäsa sa v najrôznejších podobách objavovalo v celej histórii ľudstva. Najstaršie záznamy o vegetariánstve sú zo starovekej Indie a Grécka. V oboch prípadoch bolo vegetariánstvo úzko späté s náboženskými a filozofickými dôvodmi, hlavne s nenásilným konaním proti zvieratám (v Indii sa nazýva ahinsa). Stúpenci hinduistických a budhistických spoločenstiev doteraz odmietajú konzumáciu mäsa. Aj kresťanstvo, judaizmus a islam majú vo svojej viere zmienku o čiastočne bezmäsitej strave. Počas rímskej ríše a neskorej Antiky sa vegetariánstvo prakticky z Európy vytratilo. V stredoveku niektorí mnísi nekonzumovali mäso z asketických dôvodov. Počas renesancie sa vegetariánstvo znova objavilo v Európe, ale do popredia sa dostalo až v 19. a 20. storočí. Medzi významných predstaviteľov vegetariánstva patria Pythagoras, Sokrates, Platón, Ovidius, Cicero, Seneca, Hippokrates...

...Barnard, president of the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine, says that more studies show that vegan converts prove to gain more vitamins and nutrients naturally, than compared to a normal omnivorous human (What the Health). A plant-based diet will improve one’s physical health. Eating more harvested and natural foods will lead to a long life with less health complications. One study shows, "Death rates rise across the dietary groups, from vegans to non-vegetarians," said Fraser. There was a 12 percent reduction in risk of all-cause mortality in all vegetarians combined versus non-vegetarians, with a reduction in risk of 15 percent in vegans compared with non-vegetarians, nine percent in lacto-ovo vegetarians, 19 percent in pesco-vegetarians, and eight percent in semi-vegetarians” (Palmer). Based on this study, it is shown that maintaining a plant-based diet has many benefits to the body. In almost all of the studies done the vegans and/or the lacto-ovo vegetarians came out healthier. The most shocking piece of data was that death rates decreased as animal product consumption decreased as well. Steering away from meat and other animal products significantly improves one’s overall health. Physician, Dr. Michael Klaper, states specifically that the biggest cause to diabetes, clogged arteries, high blood pressure, and obesity is simple; the fatty-unhealthy foods [meat,dairy, and other animal products] that America is centering their diets around (What the Health).

...Instead of immediately opting for surgery, Jobs chose to alter his pesco-vegetarian diet while weighing Eastern treatment options. For nine months, Jobs postponed surgery, making Apple's board of directors nervous. Executives feared that shareholders would pull their stock if word got out that their CEO was ill. But in the end, Jobs' confidentiality took precedence over shareholder disclosure. In 2004, he had a successful surgery to remove the pancreatic tumor. True to form, in subsequent years Jobs disclosed little about his health.

Popa” University of Medicine and Pharmacy, Iasi 2 Children’s Emergency Hospital “Sf. Maria”, Iasi 3 Hiperclinica Medlife, Iasi ABSTRACT Vegetarianism may have implications on the growth of children and adolescents. There are different types of vegetarian diets: some may be suitable for children, other deficient in essential nutrients. If a vegetarian diet is done properly and includes fortified foods it can promote health and reduce risk for major chronic diseases. Restriction or exclusion of products of animal nature can lead to low intake of essential nutrients. Keywords: vegetarianism, child Childhood is the period when nutritional habits are acquired, when growth is intense and when deposits of essential nutrients are stored. According to the Merriam-Webster Dictionary, vegetarianism is defined by “the consumption of a diet that contains vegetables, fruits, nuts, cereals and sometimes eggs and dairy products” (1). Vegetarianism may have severe implications on the growth of children and adolescents, therefore it is necessary to assess the nutritional status of vegetarians to insure optimum growth and a good health state and to prevent potential deficits. There are different types of vegetarians (1) – Table 1. Each of these diets has implications on the nutrition and health...
