Yes, I know the difference.
I was merely saying that her symptoms sound identical to my friend's, that's all. Just like some people seem to be successful as vegans, others may be unsuccessful at being vegetarians.
- numix 16y agoAnd others are unsuccessful at being omnivores. There are a host of other nutrition problems that may be completely unrelated to whether meat is in one's diet. It's not very fair to blame vegetarianism, which is usually considered a pretty safe diet.
- chaitanya 16y agoI have never known anyone who's been unsuccessful at being a vegetarian (and about half my friends and family are vegetarian). Edit: the only time I have known someone switch to a non-veg diet (after becoming an adult) is when they started going to the gym and were keen on building muscle mass.
- araneae 16y agoWell you probably know a different set of people I do. I know quite a few that quit. Of the ones that are current, one is my cousin, but she confessed to me that after last Thanksgiving she bought herself an entire turkey and ate the whole thing in one sitting. Another friend of mine is a veg as well, but she eats one steak per month to prevent anemia. Of the two that are strict non-meat eaters, one is the friend that is always sick all the time, and the other has an underweight BMI. Yay anecdotes!
