“Flexitarian”(flexible vegetarian) is a term recently coined to describe those who eat a mostly vegetarian diet, but occasionally eat meat as a protein supplement. They’re driven by health benefits more than concerns about animal rights, ethics or the environment. Many people who call themselves "flexitarian" or "semi-vegetarian" have given up red meat for health reasons; while others, for environmental reasons, only eat free-range or organic animals and animal products.
Flexitarian（彈性素食者）是近兩年才出現的一個詞，指那些大部分時間吃素食，偶爾為補充蛋白質而攝入一些肉類的素食者。他們這樣選擇的主要出發點是健康，而不是動物權益、道德或者環保等因素。他們有時也被稱為semi-vegetarian（半素食者）。其中很多人都因為健康的原因放棄食用紅肉，另外一些人為了環保只選擇自由放養或有機培育的動物及其相關產品。
