Vegetarianism. How to choose the type of food?

Vegetarianism is divided into: veganism, lacto-vegetarianism, fruitarianism and a number of other areas

• veganism is one of the most severe type of food intake, which involves the rejection not only of meat and fish products, but also of dishes from eggs and milk;
• lacto-vegetarianism is a less cardinal diet. His supporters consume eggs, milk and dairy products;
• fruitarianism - the use of fruits, berries and fruit vegetables in an unprocessed form.

When thinking about a significant change in diet and a switch to strictly plant-based foods, the process should begin gradually.
