28-Day Vegetarian Meal Plan E-Book
The Vegetarian Diet (or simply known as Vegetarian) is the practice of avoiding meats in the diet to achieve a healthier lifestyle. The diet follows the principles recommended by health experts to manage weight, improve health, and achieve a lifestyle without the effects of excessive cholesterol consumption.
The basics include eating balanced meals with plant-based proteins, eggs and dairy products. These are combined with complex carbohydrates, vegetables, fruits and good fats. This meal plan particularly concentrates on a specific type of vegetarian called lacto-ovo.
There are different types of vegetarian diet, aside from the lacto-ovo type. These are:
Lacto Vegetarian – inclusion of dairy products, but avoids eggs
Ovo Vegetarian – inclusion of eggs, but avoids dairy products
Vegan – strictly no dairy and egg products
Pescatarian – avoids all meat except fish
Pollo Vegetarian – avoids all meat except chicken
Flexitarian – generally follows a vegetarian lifestyle, but with occasional intake of meat, eggs, and dairy products.
Benefits of Vegetarian Meal Diet:
1. Stronger immune system and protection against lifestyle-related diseases such as hypertension, diabetes, and cancer.
2. Effective in weight management
3. Safe for pregnant and lactating women, and children. However, with guidance from a health professional.
