[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Restricting a child's diet in an unhealthy way. What could go wrong? :shock: [/quote] How so? What makes you think this? In the poster whose DD has been vegetarian for 5 years (actually longer - age 7 to 12.5). She’s a great height and weight, excellent student, kind person, great athlete etc. Her doctor has her take B12 and supplement iron but otherwise she doesn’t need to make changes. I’m quite sure she has the healthiest diet of anyone in our family because she’s very thoughtful about her meals and snacks being balanced rather than randomly eating / snacking. She also is careful that she gets good fats, proteins etc because she’s serious about her sport. A recent study intended to prove meat protein is superior to plant protein ended up finding no difference. https://www.veganeasy.org/discover/news/oops-beef-industry-study-accidentally-proves-plant-protein-is-just-as-good-as-meat/[/quote]
