To Clarify

Well apparently I am a pure vegetarian

according to http://www.veganmeans.com/how_veganism/Becoming_Vegan_what_is_veganism.htm.

"Thus, one who eats a pure vegetarian diet purely for health reasons...would not truly be considered vegan unless and until such people commit to reverence for all conscious life. That ‘reverence’ component means violent activism is also not vegan.

In veganism, health benefits don’t take precedence over respect for other animals or environmental awareness, or caring about humanity. All are of equal and interconnected importance."

My health is my #1 concern when compared to animals and environmental awareness. Don't get me wrong. Its not that I don't care about such things, I do, It's that my passion is health and forever will be. So to clarify I'm not going vegan. I will be eating a vegan diet which supposedly makes me a "pure vegetarian".
