[quote=Anonymous]My 13 year old needs a ton of calories. He swims several hours a day, plays another sport at school, and plays lots of pick up basketball and other sports. He's also headed for a growth spurt, and his doctor predicts he'll end up like his Dad who is about 6'6". He's got a really varied diet, and eats mostly healthy food, just in enormous quantities. He is interested becoming vegan, but I am concerned about how he'd get enough calories without using a lot of processed food, like protein powders etc . . . I know that plant based whole foods are super healthy, but I don't see how he could enough calories on a plant based diet. Are there solutions I'm missing? Or are plant based processed foods decent substitutes?[/quote]
