YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT!

Whatever your reasons are for becoming a vegetarian, there are four different
types of vegetarians and you can choose the type that you want to be. There are
many different types of vegetarians, as some people are not able to give up all
animal products completely.



The four types are:
· Lacto Vegetarians: This diet consists of no animal products or eggs.
They do eat dairy products such as milk, cheese and yogurt.
· Ovo-Vegetarians: This diet consists of no animal or dairy, but they do eat
eggs.
· Lacto-Ovo Vegetarians: This diet consists of no animal products, but
they do eat dairy and eggs.
· Vegan: This diet consists of plant-based foods, which means that it
excludes all animal products including dairy, eggs, meat and even honey.
If you haven’t figured out what type of vegetarian you are going to be, it’s okay. It
takes time and experimentation with different recipes to figure out what you can’t
live without in your diet. For example, some people can’t live without milk and
eggs.
You Really are What You Eat
The expression “you are what you eat” has been heard numerous times and it is
often used in advertisements. But, if you really think about what this means, you
really start to think twice about your diet.
A good example of a person being what they eat can be seen in your blood
plasma. Your blood plasma is clear liquid, but after eating a fast food hamburger
your blood plasma becomes cloudy with fat and cholesterol. This is what your
body absorbs after eating a high-fat hamburger.
Inversely, you also become what you don’t eat. When you switch from eating a
lot of meat to eating a vegetarian based diet, you lose fat. You are also less
prone to various cancers and diseases. Your cholesterol can also improve.
When you are lean and eating less meat products, you find that many of your
health and fitness problems go away. The risk of Type II diabetes is also
reduced. Blood pressure falls into normal ranges as well. When you’re healthier,
you also do not have to take fewer medications.
If you have a family history of high cholesterol or blood pressure, then you are
particularly dependent on what you eat and it is easier for you to become what
you eat. Moving towards a vegetarian diet can reduce the incidence if numerous
diseases. Vegetarians are also statistically healthier.
