Exploring the philosophical debate on vegetarianism, this study delves into Porphyry's influential work, "On Abstinence from Eating Animals," and its resurgence during the Renaissance. It highlights early discussions among philosophers, physicians, and religious figures regarding the merits and drawbacks of a meat-free diet. Key questions arise about the compatibility of vegetarianism with religious beliefs, health implications, and ethical considerations regarding sentient beings. The text also examines dietary practices of diverse cultures, enriching the discourse on vegetarianism's moral and health dimensions.
