Dear Poorna, there is no substance in this entire universe which doesn't have cells. As far as foods are considered, medically, whatever is fit to eat is composed of "living cells". But they have been categorised into fit food and unfit foods. It has been seen that food containing Haemoglobin does more harm to the body than whatever little bit of nutrition they give. On the other hand food without haemoglobin has almost negligible harmful properties and are full with nutrition. When compared, it is seen that haemoglobin containing foods have more harmful products than the non-haemoglobin ones and non-haemoglobin foods have more nutrition than the haemoglobin ones. Thus the Haemoglobin foods are named as NON-VEG and non-haemoglobin foods are named as VEGETARIAN foods. Also,  meat takes 72 hrs in our stomach to digest whereas vegetarian foods merely takes 6 hrs to digest. Therefore, its prescribed to eat vegetarian foods more than the non-veg ones(If possible, be a vegetarian) since it has been noticed that Vegetarians live more healthy and longer life than the non-vegetarians.

Hi,

As far as a piece of information  I have, the central nervous system in the animals is not available in the plants,fruits etc.. Hence even when the living cells are being cut and consumed, it does not result in any harm. But in case of animals, when it is being killed and taken there is obviously a harm or pain to that animal. Hence vegetables and fruits are vegeterian foods and it is consumed without any harm or pain.

Dear Bindu,

Just now I read your opinion regarding Veg & Non vegetarian.Excellent  words.Atlast  in your comment you said try to be a vegetarian, thats great words.I welcomed it.Vegetarians are harmless & very nuritious foods.Even nutritive value are also very good.They are good for health when compare to Non veg.

One can classify a food as veg when no physical harm , that is lethal, is done to the source of the food when obtaining it. Say milk is vegetarian, but not meat. Of course plants too gets killed when used as food. Research shows that plants too have senses...but I don't know if they can feel pain like animals. Many still are not aware that plants too are living things.People may take this factor upon classification...Me too looking for a more precise definition, so i'll be happy to welcome comments from experts
