Hello!

I am considering giving up meat for Lent, but I’mnot sure what else I could eat, to supplement my diet.

My family eats meat at almost every single meal, and I don’t know what all I could eat, that isn’t just side items.

Thanks,! I don’t want fake meat, I want things that will still give me good nutrients and stuff, w/o meat.

Valeria asked:


Can you have a vegan diet, and get all the proper nutrients with out taking supplements? As long as your diet’s healthy you can, right?

chloe asked:


Would mind answering some questions? I’m trying to decide which diet to choose for my baby, and I want to find out as much as possible.

Did you have any vitamin or mineral deficiencies?

Did you take supplements?

Was it difficult growing up in a society were most people eat red meat?

How is your height and weight?

Anything you want to share about your experiences?

Please I don’t want to hear from meat eaters who think these diets are completely wrong, unless you have followed one of these diets for a while. It’s really important for me to get some info on this subject from people who have experience.
rob lou, actually most infants do eat meat after six months.
And also, I’m asking for when she gets older.

veggurl21 asked:


I am a vegetarian because I care about animal suffering, however I also care about the environment and my health. Lately, I have been drinking a bottle vitamin water everyday - mainly the XXX flavor which means triple antioxidants. Vitamin Water of course contains many vitamins including B12. If I drink this consistently everyday, would this be a good alternative to regular vegetarian vitamins?

Anaselena asked:


I wrote to my local health food store, and they cannot guarantee that the Omega-3 pills they carry do not carry seal oil - vaguely referred to as ‘fish oils’ - AND I wrote to a large vitamin company, and they said that they are working on it.

Moroze asked:


What is the proper way to combine foods to get complete proteins? Except soy, what are good substitutes of dairy products? Are supplements absolutely necessary for a healthy vegan diet?

bamakathy asked:


My husband and I are both obese and need to lose 80-100 pounds each. A friend recommended a raw food diet, where you eat as much as you want without having to cook. Does anyone know where I can get info on how to begin, any supplements/vitamins that would be necessary (or how to get everything our bodies need from this type of eating), without me having to order a book?
