Vegetarian diets are associated with great health benefits. Objective: The aim of the present study is to compare food intake, lipid profile, blood glucose, blood pressure and anthropometry among vegetarians and non vegetarians. Patients and Methods: It was selected 20 vegetarians and 22 omnivorous. Food intake was evaluated by 24 hours recall. Lipid profile and glycemia were analyzed, also blood pressure and anthropometry (arm and waist circumferences, triceps skinfold thickness, height and weight) were measured. Results: From the vegetarian group, 75% were lacto-ovo-vegetarians; 15% were lacto-vegetarians, and 10% were vegans. Lipid profile, glycemia and blood pressure were not significantly different between groups. The vegetarian group showed a lower body mass index (23 ± 4 kg/m2) than the omnivorous group (27 ± 5 kg/m2). The vegetarian group had a higher intake of fiber and polyunsaturated fat, and lower intake of zinc, phosphorus, niacin, riboflavin than omnivorous individuals. For both groups, it was not achieved recommendations from various nutrients. Conclusion: Vegetarian had a higher intake of fiber and polyunsaturated fat and did not present lipid profile, glycemia or blood pressure alterations. However, only meat exclusion, does not necessarily reflect upon a healthy eating pattern. It depends on other factors.
