    abstract = {<p style="text-align:justify">It is known that vegan diets, where no animal products are used or consumed and vegetarian diets, where no animal meat is consumed in general, are quite popular today. There are also several sub‐branches of vegan and vegetarian diets. The sub‐branches of vegan diets are., zenmacrobiotic, fruvitarians and ravists. It is known that vegetarianism has different styles such as ovo, lacto, lacto‐ovo, semi, pesco, polo. Today, it is obvious that studies are being conducted on sedentary and athletic individuals who integrate these diets into their lives. As it is known from such studies, it is an important factor that individuals who want to adopt these diets as a lifestyle should adapt to this life with the help of a suitable doctor and diet. In addition, it is very important to what extent individuals with any of these diets can get sufficient amounts of substances such as B12, iron, zinc, vitamin D and calcium from herbal products. Otherwise, it is obvious that many negative health factors may be encountered in individuals who want to switch to these diets incorrectly. In this context, the main purpose of the article is to examine what kind of a food consumption scheme vegan and vegetarian athletes go through and how they should go through it and to examine the data on what possible health problems are and may occur. At the same time, to examine the studies conducted on the positive and negative aspects of these diets on athletes and to try to reach a general opinion on this subject.</p>
