Sister diet of the Vegetarian Diet, a Vegan avoids all animal products in the diet including meat, fish, fowl, dairy and eggs. Many Vegans all eschew wearing animal products like fur and leather as well as avoid products that have been tested on animals.
One needs to be careful when adopting a strict vegan diet and make sure to get enough protein as well as a few specific supplements like Omega-3 fatty acids, Vitamin D3 with K2, B vitamins and possibly an iron supplement. Probably a good idea to talk to your health care provider bfore embarking on a vegan diet.
