Anthropometric profile and food intake behaviour plays an important role in monitoring health conditions and nutritional status of diet consuming population. The aim of the study was to find out the anthropometric measurements of people consuming vegan, lacto-vegetarian and non-vegetarian/omnivorous diet. Impact of different diet consuming population was calculated on health aspects in terms of BMI. Hence, in this regard a survey was conducted of total 139 respondents to calculate BMI of lacto vegetarian, vegetarian and non-vegetarian groups of categories. The survey reflected BMI rate of lacto-vegetarian was better (75%) than other diet consuming population also shows that vegan diet is more prone to have underweight issues in females (41.7%). The study also depicts that male group of non-vegetarian/omnivorous categories are higher risk of obesity and overweight issues, therefore suggesting them to consume plant based diet with dairy food as dietary intake in order to maintain normal BMI.
