I have had a very difficult year and have a need to make some minor changes. I have been getting back to my spiritual roots by meditating, having started yoga, and getting back on an enlightened path. As part of this, I am contemplating turning vegatarian. Everyone I know who is vegetarian is so healthy, and I have a need to do the same. Can someone give me good tips, sites and tell me the difference between vegen and vegetarian? I am also a single mother who is a fulltime student, therefore on a serious budget, so budgeting hints for this endeavor would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
I also have some real meat eaters in my family. How do you let them know without starting a fight?
You should only become vegan/vegetarian if you truley believe so. Now there are many types of vegetarians. There are ovo-lacto-vegetarian, semi-vegetarian, ovo-vegetarian, lacto-vegetarian, vegetarian and of course vegan. Vegetarian is basically an overall of all those groups i mentioned, it basically is someone who dose not eat fish, seafood, meat, or poultry. A vegan is strict–not consuming any animal products or byproducts and some go as far as not eating honey or yeast, and not wearing clothing made from animal products. Hope i helped!
