Vegetarian Advice: Mom Supports Teen Going VegQuestion: My daughter, 17, has gone vegetarian - which I totally support. What changes can we expect? It's been about 2 months now. - S. E.
Savvy Vegetarian AdviceDear S. E., What you can expect depends on what she's eating. If your daughter is getting plenty of fresh fruits, veg, whole grains and legumes in her diet, and not much fast food, junk food, sugar etc, and if she's getting enough calories (but not too much!) and adequate protein, she should become healthier. Have you noticed any changes, good or not, since she adopted a vegetarian diet? Do you think that her nutrition is adequate? Is there anything about her diet that concerns you? Any food allergies or sensitivities suspected? At 17, your daughter likely is still growing and developing physically, so good nutrition is especially important. You requested the free report on vegetarian etiquette, and I'm adding two others: 10 Tips for Beginning Vegetarians, and Vegetarian Nutrition. Those will help make things more clear for all of you, and set your mind at ease, I hope. I'm glad you support your daughter in going vegetarian! It's hard for teens to make a change like that if their parents aren't supportive. All the best!
