There are many types of vegetarian diets, starting with eliminating red meat but not poultry and fish consumption. Calling vegan ignores any animal product such as milk and eggs. Macrobiotic vegetarians refuse to consider processed foods that are contaminated with products such as hormones or radioactivity.
Among these three groups there are many variations, like those of so called “new vegetarian” that diets with little or no animal protein, tailored to their personal preferences for health reasons more than religious or moral principles.

HAZARDS OF VEGETARIANISM
Vegetarianism is not a diet per se more dangerous than any that the continued lack of care and guidance.
The basic principle of any diet is that adapting to it must be gradual and phased. You can not hit without a food group, but should also be phased out gradually.
Vegetarianism can be harmful to health, especially in the more extreme diets. Lack of vitamins, minerals and proteins are the most common problems. This results in rickets, hormonal disorders, malnutrition, osteoporosis and premature births, among many others.
To follow a healthy vegetarian diet must take into account issues such as the combination of certain foods, like rice and lentils, or corn and beans, is a way to get enough protein. We must also pay attention to the quantities of food you eat to achieve the necessary input of vitamins and minerals.
Whole grains and legumes, fruits and vegetables, nuts, vegetable oils, dairy products and eggs, and sweets are not refined, in that order, the five major food groups that form the most common vegetarian diet.
Follow a vegetarian diet has its pros and cons. Before you start it is advisable to seek advice well.
