What is a Vegetarian Diet? A vegetarian diet is a nutritional approach that eliminates meat including but not limited to chicken, steak, and fish. The diet is particularly high in vegetables, grains, and fruit. According to the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, there are different types of vegetarian diets: Lacto-ovo-vegetarian: Eats eggs and dairy products. Lacto-vegetarian: Includes dairy products, but not egg products. Ovo-vegetarian: Includes egg products, but not dairy products. Vegan: Excludes eggs and dairy products and in some cases, honey. Raw Vegan: Eats primarily uncooked foods such as vegetables, nuts, fruits, seeds, legumes, and sprouted grains 75 to 100 percent of the time. Nutrition Tips for Vegetarians The primary question asked about vegetarian diets is usually related to how one can get enough variety, especially protein. While carbohydrates are a point of discussion among people with diabetes, healthy carbs that are eaten in vegetarian and vegan diets are usually high in fiber, which slows digestions and prevents blood sugar spikes; fiber also lowers cholesterol.
Furthermore, since this diet is high in vegetable consumption, it is not surprising that those who follow these eating plans consume more fiber and less total calories as well as less saturated fat. Some recent research mentions that this diet's other benefits include preventing and managing diabetes and weight loss. Studies referenced in the Consensus of Nutritional Therapy for Adults with Diabetes and Prediabetes showed different results in glucose levels and cardiovascular risks and even quality of life in general. It's been concluded, after extensive review of documentation and evidence that a vegetarian nutritional approach can result in weight loss, including the reduction of ab circumference measurements, cholesterol levels, triglycerides, and that better glycemic management results and often reflects in an overall reduction of A1c average levels between 0. 3-0. 4% in people with Type 2 diabetes. We live in times where there are so many different diet options for different types of people.
There are no lists or prefabricated guides that serve the same way for all individuals. Whatever food plan you prefer, go to a nutrition expert so that together you can draw up a plan that not only eliminates food groups but also includes the most crucial ones to take care of your health.
3 User Reviews Posted by Laura (New Plymouth, Idaho Usa) on 09/10/2012 Apparently, we are not all created the same. I did the vegan route for 20 months and had to give it up as even my vegan naturopath told me I'd have to at least eat fish to survive. A lot of bad things happened. My hormones shut down, or close to it. My hair was falling out. My high blood pressure got worse instead of better. I lost too much weight. I began to experience various fungus problems, so much that one doctor ran tests for Aids, even though I thought there was no possible way except for blood transfusions many years before. My cholesterol dropped, but the balance was all bad, and that's just a few things that went wrong. Listen to your body. I should have done that a lot sooner than I did.

You would truly be amazed as I was that becoming vegan can cure diabetes.
