Answers:
Well, it depends greatly on what you are eating!.
A meat based diet can be unhealthy just as a vegetarian diet and a vegan diet can be unhealthy!.
A vegan doesn't eat anything from an animal!. Nothing, so there diet consists of much more fruit, vegetables, nuts, legumes, seeds and all that great stuff for you!.
Look, if you really want to compare the over all potential health of vegetarians and vegans compare the vegan food pyramid with the one you see at school!.
AND also, how many meat eaters do you know that actually eat the amount of fruit and vegetables that is recommended!? Not many!.
also, how many sick, overweight, heading for a heart attack meat eaters do you see!?
AND
How many sick, overweight, heading for a heart attack vegans do you see!.
I think you will need to do a lot of research to get a totally unbiased answer as to which is the best of the three!.
Good luck!Www@FoodAQ@Com

Being vegan is better, simply because everything you eat is natural being that it doesn't come from animals!. Just incase you didn't know vegetarians eat dariy [eggs, milk] and some eat fish!. Vegans eat niether!. I'm a vegetarian and I know many vegans who are a lot healthier than I, and I am very healthy!. It also depends on what you put into your diet of course!. Having a good balance of vegetables and grains will make you healthier too!.

P!.S AFI are one of my favourite bands!. They're very healthy boys <3Www@FoodAQ@Com

your immune system is stronger as a vegan than a vegetarian

vegan is healthier than vegetarian because it lower in fat and cholesterol, generally

vegetarians eat dairy products and eggs along with plants

First off, I love AFI!.!.!.just thought you should know that!.
Second, vegetarians DO NOT only eat vegetables!.!.!.i pretty much hate a lot of vegetables!.!.!.
Third, being Vegan IS better for you because of what goes into egg and milk products!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Some vegetarians eat eggs and dairy!. Vegans do not eat meat, eggs, or dairy!.

There is some research that suggests dairy is especially bad for your health past age 2!. See "The China Study" by T!. Colin Campbell!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

It depends on how you go about it!.
You can live off of potato chips and soda and technically be a 100% vegan, but it wouldn't be very good for you!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Yes but you must eat fruit and vegetables!. They are loaded with natural non fattening sugars, and vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and enzymes that we all need!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Personally, I don't think so!. But, if you take it seriously and actually get all the nutrients you need to be healthy, then that's fine!. Www@FoodAQ@Com
