description The present study establishes the degree of influence of the vegetarian and carnivore diets on the hemoglobin and hematocrit levels of students of human medicine of the Universidad Peruana Unión, Lima, 2018. The goal was to find out if people who follow a vegetarian or carnivore diet are deficient in hematocrit and hemoglobin. Out of the vegetarians, 23 followed different types of vegetarianism. The following ranges were considered: hemoglobin (12 - 16 g/dL) and hematocrit (36 - 48 %). It is concluded that, regarding the diet and hemoglobin/hematocrit levels, most respondents show normal ranges, and people who follow a vegetarian diet do not present highly-deficient hematocrit and hemoglobin levels, and have a better nutritional level than those who follow a carnivore diet.

El presente identifica el grado de influencia de la dieta vegetariana y carnívora en relación con la hemoglobina y hematocrito de los estudiantes de medicina humana de la Universidad Peruana Unión, Lima, 2018. El problema planteado es descubrir si las personas con dieta vegetariana y carnívora presentan deficiencia de hematocrito y hemoglobina. En relación a las personas que llevan una dieta vegetariana, 23 participantes practican diferentes tipos de vegetarianismo. Se consideraron los siguientes rangos, hemoglobina (12 - 16 g/dl) y hematocrito (36-48 %). Se concluye que, en relación a dieta y hemoglobina/hematocrito, la mayoría de los encuestados están en los rangos normales de dichas variables y que las personas que mantienen una dieta vegetariana no presentan un alto grado de deficiencia en los niveles de hematocrito y hemoglobina, y presentan un mejor nivel nutricional que los de dieta carnívora.
