RESUMEN

El término vegetarianismo engloba diversas prácticas alimenticias con diferentes repercusiones en la salud, la principal razón para adoptarlo en la actualidad está relacionada con el deseo de perder peso, disminuir el riesgo de enfermedades crónico-degenerativas o contribuir a su manejo terapéutico. Sin embargo, las dietas vegetarianas restrictivas o no balanceadas pueden condicionar deficiencias nutricias particularmente en situaciones de alta demanda metabólica. Algunos micronutrimentos tienen mayor riesgo de deficiencia por estar contenidos en productos de origen animal predominantemente por lo que su aporte resulta menor o su absorción se encuentra comprometida por el alto contenido en fitatos, oxalatos o fibra que caracteriza a estas dietas. Los profesionales de la salud debemos conocer los beneficios y riesgos potenciales que implica ser vegetariano para ayudar a diseñar un plan de alimentación bien balanceado, indicar el uso de alimentos fortificados o suplementos de micronutrimentos específicos para prevenir su deficiencia.
