Who is Who - vegans fruteriantsy, pranisty ...

Now the planet is about 1 billion vegetarians. Figure is not exaggerated - in one only populous India, most people do not eat meat for religious reasons. In order not to get lost in the vegetarians, they can be divided into several communities.

Vegans

Кто есть кто — веганы, фрутерианцы, пранисты...Proponents of absolute vegetarianism. The main principle is a complete rejection of any other kind of animal exploitation. Vegans do not eat any animal products, including milk and honey, do not wear clothes made of fur, leather, wool, silk, not sitting in a leather chair, do not use products that have been tested on animals (drugs, cosmetics, household chemicals and even condoms ). Vegans protest against the use of animals for entertainment: circus, a zoo, dolphinarium, horse riding and other activities involving animals, for vegans unacceptable. Pets are also considered unethical. Vegans - the most active fighters for the rights of animals.
Ovolaktovegetariantsy

This is the largest group. They do not eat anyone who moves, but may eat eggs and / or milk. Accordingly, ovovegetariantsy eat eggs, but avoid dairy products. Laktovegetariantsy - contrary consume milk and dairy products, but do not eat eggs.
Pesco-vegetarians and Polly

Disclaimer of red meat, but eating fish and seafood (sand-vegetarianism) and / or poultry (Polly vegetarianism).
Fruteriantsy

As vegans, vegetarians follow the philosophy of the absolute, but even more radically. Fruteriantsy try not to harm not only to animals but also plants. Eat only those fruits that are collected is not harmful to plants: fruits, grains, and nuts. Fruteriantsy think to pick apples or tomatoes can and digging carrots or potatoes - is inhumane. Just in case some do not eat mushrooms, so that from the point of view of biology mushrooms - not plants and animals, and a separate kingdom.
Syromonoedy

Small group. Eat only raw ("live") vegetables and fruits, and seeds, nuts and raisins. The main difference from fruteriantsev - never subjected to the food cooked and eat only one type of food at a meal. For example, only apples for breakfast and only tomatoes for lunch.
Pranisty

Can live without food. (More details can learn from books Dzhasmuhin.)

  1. Vegetarians live only on plants. Their philosophy is to eat green and stay healthy and fit. Indians have their own reasons for not eating meat. Useful blog!
