Definitions of Nutrition Systems

 

Fruitarian:

Consists of raw fruits and seeds only. Fruitarians believe only fruits are perfect for the human beings and are 100% environment safe. When people eat fruits they nourish themselves with the BEST food stuff, they cooperate with the laws of life spreading the seeds of the fruits to make more trees; and they send back to the earth the skins of the fruits for further recycling by the bacteria and fungi who cooperate in the endless biological life cycle, to prepare nutrients for the trees and healthy soil…from dust to dust…they do not kill any living thing(animal or plant) and they contribute for the magic circle of life having fun nourishing themselves…

 

Raw-Foodist:

Consists on eating only Raw Food, fruits, seeds, vegetables and everything else RAW, not cooked or processed by any heat process. It is the second best nutrition system for the humans, however eating vegetables like carrots and onions, people contribute for the development of agriculture which means the destruction of the environment…

 

Vegetarian:

A vegetarian is someone living on a diet of grains, pulses, nuts, seeds, vegetables and fruits with or without the use of dairy products and eggs (preferably free-range).

A vegetarian does not eat any meat, poultry, game, fish, shellfish or crustacean, or slaughter by-products such as gelatin or animal fats. In practice, vegetarians eat mostly cooked food and still get an inferior health because of that!

  • Vegan. Does not eat meat, fish, dairy products, eggs, or any other animal product, sometimes called "strict vegetarians".
  • Lacto-vegetarian. Eats dairy products but not eggs.
  • Ovo-vegetarian. Eats eggs but not dairy products.
  • Lacto-ovo-vegetarian. Eats both dairy products and eggs. This is the most common type of vegetarian diet.
  • Macrobiotic. A diet followed for spiritual and philosophical reasons. Aims to maintain a balance between foods seen as ying (positive) or yang (negative). The diet progresses through ten levels, becoming increasingly restrictive. Not all levels are vegetarian, though each level gradually eliminates animal products. The highest levels eliminate fruit and vegetables, eventually reaching the level of a brown rice diet.

 

Awful news...:

Many foods contain ingredients derived from the slaughter of animals. Gelatin is made from animal ligaments, tendons, bones etc. which have been boiled in water. It is often found in confectionery, ice cream, and other dairy products. Animal fats refer to carcass fats and may be present in a wide range of foods, including biscuits, cakes, and margarines. Suet and lard are types of animal fats. Certain food additives (E numbers) may be derived from animal sources.

Cheese is generally made with rennet extracted from the stomach lining of slaughtered calves. Vegetarian cheese is made with rennet from a microbial source.

The Vegetarian Society has a separate Information Sheet, Stumbling Blocks, listing ingredients which may be unsuitable for vegetarians.

 

Vegetarian Foods:

A well balanced vegetarian diet (with lots of fruits and raw vegetables) can provide most of the nutrients your body needs and there is much scientific evidence to indicate vegetarians may be healthier than meat-eaters. A vegetarian diet is more healthy than animal diet because it is typically low in saturated and total fat, high in dietary fibber and complex carbohydrate, and high in protective minerals, enzymes and vitamins present in fresh raw fruit and vegetables…(of course…)

However, vegetarians eat cooked food with ALL the enzymes destroyed (yes 100%), it is dead food indeed and has no life force inside…sometimes vegetarians feel lethargic without energy…cooked food creates addiction similar to the effects of drugs and it is based on well developed agriculture which is the MAJOR cause for the destruction of the biodiversity of life in the fields and mountains and is destroying little by little our ecosystems and all the life supporting mechanisms of our planet…

 

Vegetarian food groups are:
  • Cereals/grains - wheat (bread & pasta), oats, maize, barley, rye, rice, etc. Potatoes are a useful cereal alternative.
  • Pulses - kidney beans, baked beans, chick peas, lentils, etc.
  • Nuts & Seeds - almonds, walnuts, hazelnuts, sesame seeds, sunflower seeds, etc.
  • Fruit & vegetables.
  • Dairy products or Soya products - tofu, tempeh, soya protein etc.
  • Vegetable oils and fats - margarine or butter.

 

Reasons for Becoming Vegetarian:

Most people become vegetarian because they believe it is wrong to slaughter animals for food and because they are opposed to the cruelty and suffering inflicted upon the billions of animals reared for food. See the Information on Farm Animals in vegetarian web sites for further details.

The effect of meat production on the environment, such as the destruction of vast areas of rainforest for cattle ranching, is another reason commonly cited for becoming vegetarian (however vegetarian are not aware that agriculture does the same destruction too, the only good food is really FRUIT). Others may become vegetarian because of the links between meat production and poverty and famine in developing countries.

The health advantages of a vegetarian diet are another commonly cited reason to become vegetarian, particularly among adults. A dislike of the taste of meat and religious reasons may also be a factor.

For further details see the vegetarian web sites and vegetarian books.
