Vegetarianism brings many beneficial effects to health such as weight loss, prevention of cardiovascular disease, stroke, and reduced risk of diabetes. However, not everyone using vegetarian food is good. Vegetarianism is not suitable for some of the following subjects.
1. Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding
When pregnant or breastfeeding, women need to provide more nutrients to the body to ensure the health of the mother and the development of the fetus. Women in this period, if vegetarian, will lack vitamin B12, lack of iron, zinc, copper... because these micronutrients are abundant in foods of animal origin. Pregnant women with vegetarian diets often suffer from anemia leading to premature birth, fetal malnutrition or premature birth.
If pregnant women gain too much weight and want to become vegetarian, they should consult a doctor to ensure the health of mother and baby.
2. Children are in the growing age
Children in the growing age need an adequate source of nutrients for optimal intellectual development and height growth. Therefore, if children in this age group are vegetarian, they will not be able to meet the increasing needs of the body, thereby limiting their development.

3. People who are thin and weak, anemic, exhausted
In anemic people with iron deficiency, if you follow a vegetarian diet without meat, the iron deficiency will be more severe and the anemia will become worse.
People who are thin and weak, need to be provided with adequate nutrition from a variety of food sources to fight diseases and recover quickly.
4. Men under 60 years old
Vegetarian diets that use tofu and soy products contain high levels of female hormones, so men should not use too much to avoid affecting male physiology.

5. People with cancer
People with cancer have to be treated with many methods such as surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, leading to weight loss and health failure. Patients need a healthy, varied, rich diet that provides adequate energy to respond to treatments.
6. People with stomach ulcers
Vegetables containing a lot of gluten are not good for people with stomach ulcers. Using a vegetarian diet with a lot of vegetables will make people with stomach ulcers not absorb enough nutrients, causing a lack of nutrients.
Currently, vegetarianism is becoming more and more popular because vegetarianism in general is very good for health, but it does not mean that vegetarianism is completely beneficial for everyone. A person can fast a few times a month to ensure that the body eliminates harmful toxins, but if you intend to fast for a long time, you should consult a nutritionist to ensure health.
