Abstract

Vegetarianism is a voluntary choice of a balanced and healthy diet that has been increasing worldwide, in which the person refrains from eating meat and fish, and may or may not consume eggs and dairy products. The study focuses on going through the Historical Evolution of Vegetarianism in Youth and Adults based on a bibliometric and thematic analysis of the scientific publications of the Scielo and Pubmed database through articles, which were selected in the time period between 1981 and 2022, obtaining a total of one hundred and fifteen (115) results. What did not fit the limited theme was selected, rigorously selecting seventy-six (76) documents. The main objective of this research is to demonstrate the process of historical evolution of vegetarianism in the context of 35 years in young and adult subjects through bibliometric and thematic analysis, allowing to promote the development of other research providing information on the evolution of vegetarianism to researchers.
