More and more teenagers are choosing not to eat meat, poultry or fish. They are becoming vegetarians. Teenage vegetarians are often faced with pressures pressures from parents concerned about their health, and pressures from within to continue on the path they have chosen. Probably the most frequent questions for teenage vegetarians are about the nutritional adequacy of their food choices. A vegetarian diet can be enjoyed by people of all ages. The key to a healthy vegetarian diet is variety. Just as your parents should be concerned if you only eat hamburgers, they should also worry if you only eat potato chips and salad. A healthy, varied vegetarian diet includes fruits, vegetables, plenty of leafy greens, whole grain products, nuts, seeds and legumes. Some vegetarians also choose to eat dairy products and/or eggs. Teenage vegetarians have nutritional needs that are the same as any other teenager. The years between 13 and 19 are times of especially rapid growth and change. Nutritional needs are high during these years. The nutrients you will probably be asked about the most are protein, calcium, iron, and vitamin B12.

Extractions: of the Vegetarian Athlete Research suggests that vegetarians are at less risk than meat eaters or developing hypertension, coronary artery disease, high cholesterol, diabetes, obesity and even some forms of cancer. They live an average of seven years longer than meat eaters and vegans live a whopping 15 years longer. Yet, the vegetarian way of eating is still regarded by many as unhealthy. How can you possibly meet all your nutritional needs?, friends and family question. Are you getting enough protein? These concerns are particularly raised if you are active in sports. Many coaches and trainers are completely mystified by vegetarianism and ignorantly dissuade their athletes from following a vegetarian lifestyle. But if they consulted the American Dietetic Association (ADA), they would find that being vegetarian and being an athlete are not mutually exclusive. The ADA 1997 position paper on vegetarian diets expressly states that the needs of competitive athletes can be met through a vegetarian diet. ( ) This view is echoed in the ADA and Canadian Dietetic Association position paper on physical fitness and athletic performance which states that foods of animal origin are not essential to ensure optimal athletic performance, but still recommends that vegetarian athletes have their diets evaluated to ensure adequate intake required nutrients.

Extractions: Then you have come to the right place... I gave up meat in 1982, two weeks before leaving home to go to college. When I discovered lowcarb in the summer of 1998 I knew I was going to have to find a way to incorporate my vegetarianism into my new diet. I intend to use lowcarb's ideals for life (losing weight is only a tiny part of it) but I know now that not only can you do so without meat (or even any animal products at all), but it's not all that difficult. I eat seafood, so I refer to my diet as "vegetarian and seafood," but most of my meals do not include that. I also eat eggs and dairy. I was allergic to even the tiniest amounts of dairy for 7 years so I am very familiar with nondairy diets. I've also had to incorporate many other allergies. A good number of my meals are vegan and many others are mostly vegan with a bit of cheese, yogurt, or egg added in. I do not eat preservatives (allergic), artificial sweeteners, food dyes, or other junk. As much of my food as possible is organically grown or produced. My suggestions on these pages will be for healthy, real foods. If you want the junk, there are plenty of other places to go to find out about them.
