    The terminology is confusing. Vegan, vegetarian...? I am going to follow Dr Dean Ornish plan for Reversing Heart Disease. I am going to have to slowly transition since there seems a lot to learn. I need to lose 40 pounds. Heart disease runs very strong on both sides of my family. Everyone has died young from a heart problem.

    Vegetarian is no meat. Vegan is no meat or animal byproducts; dairy, eggs, leather, silk, etc. Vegan is a lifestyle, as it's not just food intake but the products bought as well.
