Vegetarianism is a lifestyle and dietary choice that involves abstaining from the consumption of meat and fish. Vegetarians may also choose to avoid other animal-derived products, such as dairy and eggs, or follow a more flexible diet that includes some animal products. The vegetarian diet is typically rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, nuts, and seeds and is associated with several health benefits, such as improved heart health, lower risk of certain cancers, and better weight management. Vegetarianism is often motivated by ethical and environmental concerns related to the use of animals for food.
