The plant-based diet is growing in popularity, with its advocates opting for it for various reasons. Not surprisingly, the increasing awareness about the ecological crisis and numerous studies confirming its health benefits serve as strong arguments in its favor. However, the exclusion of meat in this diet raises concerns that it may lead to nutrient deficiencies, such as iron.

Wegetarianizm - podstawowe wiadomości

Wegetarianizm to forma żywienia, w której wyklucza się spożywanie produktów pochodzenia zwierzęcego. Istnieje kilka odmian tej diety, takich jak laktoowowegetarianizm, owowegetarianizm i pescowegetarianizm. Różnią się one rodzajem produktów odzwierzęcych, które są w nich dozwolone. Wegetarianizm jest znany od dawna, jednak ostatnio staje się coraz bardziej popularny. Jest to spowodowane wieloma czynnikami, w tym przede wszystkim powodami etycznymi, religijnymi, ekonomicznymi, ekologicznymi i zdrowotnymi. Ostatni z wymienionych punktów ma ogromne znaczenie, zwłaszcza w obliczu rosnących zagrożeń ze strony chorób cywilizacyjnych. Wegetarianizm jest szczególnie popularny wśród młodych ludzi, zwłaszcza nastolatków. Podstawowe zasady tej diety są łatwe do zrozumienia i stosowania. Coraz większa liczba produktów roślinnych, dostępnych w sklepach dyskontowych i restauracjach, przyczynia się do popularyzacji wegetarianizmu.
