4 types of vegetarian are listed below

1. A lacto-ovo vegetarian is a vegetarian who is willing to consume dairy products (i.e .milk and its derivatives, like cheese, butter, or yogurt) and eggs. Lacto means "milk" and ovo means "egg". Think of what an egg is. It is an aborted reality. Eating this is not fun; avoiding it is! If you're going to be one of the 4 types of vegetarian this may be a bridging diet.

In the western world, lacto-ovo vegetarians are the most common type of vegetarian. Generally speaking, when one uses the term vegetarian, a lacto-ovo vegetarian is assumed. Lacto-ovo vegetarians are well-catered to in restaurants and shops, especially in Europe and metropolitan cities in North America. See all our lacto products, some are vegan as well!

Some lacto-ovo vegetarians who are motivated by ethical reasons may avoid fertilized eggs as well as caviar, feeling that both involve the killing of beings or torture and exploitation of source animals. Most vegetarians motivated by ethics would only use "Free Range" eggs. Think of your pets, how would they feel if you ate their pals on the farm…It would cause alarm!

A lacto-ovo vegetarian usually doesn't eat poultry, meat or fish. However, cross-culturally, different cultures recognize vegetarianism differently. For example, there are many Japanese vegetarians who consider fish to be vegetarian, and Indian vegetarians who consider eggs to be non-vegetarian. They would consider this not even to be one of the 4 types of vegetarian.In the airline industry a lacto-ovo vegetarian meal is known by the acronym VLML.

2. A lacto vegetarian diet is a vegetarian diet that includes dairy products but excludes eggs. "Lacto" originates from the Latin word for milk. Within Indian culture this diet is often what is meant by the term vegetarian. Lacto vegetarians choose to consume dairy products, but abstain from specifically eating eggs. Eggs are seen as a heavy food hurting spiritual progress. Cheeses which include animal rennet and yogurts which contain gelatin are also avoided. Of the 4 types of vegetarian this diet is followed by peoples of ancient wisdom.

On ethical grounds, people might believe consuming eggs is the same as consuming animal flesh or potentially running the risk of killing an unborn/ un-hatched animal. Consuming dairy products does not involve killing animals, and when managed properly the calves are not denied an adequate supply of their mother's milk, and the human can still consume the excess milk for essential nutrients and vitamins. Of the 4 types of vegetarian diets this one is followed by some of worlds great religions.

This diet is popular with many followers of eastern religious traditions, such as Hinduism, and Buddhism. The greatest proportion of vegetarians such as those in India or those in the classical Mediterranean lands such as the Pythagorean is or was lacto vegetarian. Look at the renowned ancient wisdom of this diet.

3. Ovo vegetarians or colloquially Eggetarians are vegetarians who eat eggs but not meat or dairy products. "Ovo" comes from the Latin word for egg. Pronunciation: /oe' voe/.Ovo vegetarianism also has ethical grounds because cows must have calves before giving milk; eating dairy thereby supports the meat industry through increasing the population of animals that cannot be sustained for any other purpose - in contrast, however, hens can lay eggs for human consumption without being fertilized or reproducing. (The common practice of keeping free-range hens in the backyard illustrates this, and also demonstrates that hens can be treated as pets rather than egg-laying machines.)

4. Veganism is a lifestyle that seeks to exclude the use of animals for food, clothing, or any other purpose.

Vegans do not use or consume animal products of any kind. The word "veganism" denotes a philosophy and way of living which seeks to exclude — as far as is possible and practical — all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing or any other purpose; and by extension, promotes the development and use of animal-free alternatives for the benefit of humans, animals and the environment.

In dietary terms it denotes the practice of dispensing with all products derived wholly or partly from animals. The 4 types of vegetarian are important to know and choose which diet you can follow and have fun with. Return from 4 types of vegetarian to home page.
