The Cut-And-Dry 60 Second Primer On Paleo, Gluten-Free, Mediterranean, And Other Popular Diets
Flexitarian and Pescatarian Diets1
What Is It?
Flexitarian and Pescatarian diets are modern spins on vegetarianism that bend traditional rules to facilitate increased protein intake and allow for more flexibility (hench, “flex”).
- Flexitarian (aka “semi-vegetarian”) — an eating philosophy that describes anyone who primarily eats vegetarian, but will occasionally have meat, poultry, or fish. By definition, this is NOT a vegetarian diet. Promotes heavy consumption of veggies, fruit, grains, tofu, beans, eggs, dairy, nuts, and seeds.
- Pescatarian — follows all of the rules of vegetarianism (no meat or poultry), but includes fish.
What Isn’t Flexitarian or Pescatarian:
- Flexitarian — technically everything goes, but severely limits consumption of meat, poultry, and fish.
- Pescatarian — meat and poultry.
Pages: Paleo | Gluten-Free | Vegetarian/Vegan | Flex/Pescatarian | Mediterr.
