Why haven’t you advocated a vegan/vegetarian diet?

FAQs & Simple Living: Simplify and Reduce
Well, if you look at the food parameters, you’ll find that effectively, we are requiring most people to eat much, much less meat than the average American. But we also think that the differences between industrially produced and local, sustainable animal products are huge, and it is important to recognize those differences. And some regions have more land suited to animal production than to tillage.

What if I am a vegetarian or vegan?

The Preventive Medicine Center Of Gainesville - Frequently A...
That’s fine. Often times the therapies and supplement suggested will be compatible with being a vegetarian or vegan. At other times, a specific supplement will be suggested and it may not be available without a gelatin capsule, but the contents are all plant product. Sometimes, glandular products (that contain animal product) are necessary if a person is to regain health, and the individual person will need to make a decision as to whether they wish to proceed with this therapy.

Vegetarian diets, which contain no meat (beef, pork, poultry, or fish and shellfish), are naturally low in saturated fat, high in fiber, and full of vitamins, minerals, and cancer-fighting compounds. A multitude of scientific studies have shown that vegetarian diets have remarkable health benefits and can help prevent certain diseases, such as cancer, diabetes, and heart disease.

How do I get protein on a vegan or vegetarian diet? Do I need to combine proteins?

PCRM >> Health >> Frequently Asked Questions (FA...
Protein is an important nutrient required for the building, maintenance, and repair of tissues in the body. It was once thought that various plant foods had to be eaten together to get their full protein value; this practice was known as “protein combining” or “protein complementing.” We now know that intentional combining is not necessary. As long as the diet contains a variety of grains, legumes, and vegetables, protein needs are easily met.

Should I Worry About Iron In A Vegan Diet?

FAQ For Vegetrial World
quot;Iron deficiency, unlike protein deficiency, sometimes is a real problem, but meat is not the answer. The American Dietetic Association said in 1988 that vegetarians don't have a higher incidence of iron deficiency than nonvegetarians. If you are concerned about getting enough iron, avoid eating iron- rich foods along with substances that inhibit iron absorption: phyates (found in high-bran and unmilled cereals), polyphenols (such as tannins in tea) and calcium.
