According to the national nutrition survey data of the Ministry of Health and Welfare, about 65,438+00% of China people choose vegetarian food. In other words, there are more than 2 million vegetarians in Taiwan Province, and there are hundreds of reasons for vegetarianism, such as faith, vows, environmental protection and caring for animals, slimming down, and more people advocate health.
However, "vegetarianism" does not directly represent health! If vegetarians don't eat all kinds of foods according to the principle of balanced diet, it may cause nutritional deficiency and increase health risks. In addition, eat more vegetarian processed foods that imitate meat, and be careful that the oil, salt and sugar are too high, so it is healthier to lose weight.
Milk egg element is less prone to nutritional deficiency.
According to the Guide to Vegetarianism issued by the Ministry of Health, vegetarians can be divided into five categories: vegan or vegan, eggs, milk, milk eggs and plant spices. Vegetarians decide whether to eat milk, eggs and plant five spices (onion, garlic, leek, garlic and onion) according to their personal beliefs and eating habits.
Huang, a nutritionist at Zhongshan Hospital in Taipei, pointed out that some people also eat "vegetarian dishes beside the pot" and "vegetarian dishes". These two vegetarians mainly don't eat meat, and usually don't pay much attention to the preparation process and whether the oil is cooked with meat, but some of them are different according to personal beliefs and habits. The dietary status of five vegetarians is different. Lv Huiru, a nutritionist in the Food Nutrition Group of the Dong Shi Foundation, said that from a nutritional point of view, vegetarians who eat eggs and milk are unlikely to suffer from some nutritional deficiencies, but as long as they eat a variety of foods in a balanced way and change them frequently in the same food, all vegetarians can get adequate nutrition.

1. vegan or vegan: Do not contain milk eggs and five kinds of plant spices (onion, garlic, leek, garlic, onion), only eat pure plant food.
2. Milk element: eat pure plants and milk food.
3. Egg element: eat pure plants and egg food.
