What is the difference between Vegan and Vegetarian?
The vegetarian diet does not have a fixed definition. As such, the vegetarian dietary guidelines differ from one organization to another. The vegetarian diets are based on food choices; they may be Lacto-vegetarian or ovo-vegetarian (or both).
Both these vegetarian diet types exclude meat but allow consumption of dairy products and eggs. Lacto-vegetarians also avoid eating foods such as honey that are animal-based.
In addition, vegetarianism is practiced for various reasons; some adhere to vegetarianism because of the ethical issues associated with the killing and consumption of animals. It may be noted here that vegetarianism does not necessarily mean veganism (again a vegetarian diet is vegetarian – vegetarianism is the general term).
In vegetarian diets, dairy products and eggs are permitted. There may be several health benefits of a vegetarian diet; however, there is not enough evidence to support these claims.
