[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is her reason for this, OP? I’d definitely be concerned that this is a proxy for an eating disorder.[/quote] She's concerned about the treatment of animals and the environmental impact of non vegan eating.[/quote] I'm concerned too, but can't give up eggs and butter and cheese. Has she looked at sourcing those types of products from a humane farm? I love South Mountain Creamery, which is local and which takes really good care of its animals. [/quote] Agree there are humane sources for dairy and eggs. Please convince her to go this route. Not getting enough food sourced calcium (fortified foods don’t count and are just poorly absorbed supplements) in teen years is detrimental to bone health later in life.[/quote]
