Is a Vegetarian or Vegan Lifestyle a Good Thing?
Veganism or vegetarianism can be a healthy approach to food choices that do not include animal products—notably meat, fish, poultry, eggs, and dairy products. All parents—whether they eat meat or not—must be mindful of good nutrition and healthy eating. However, good nutrition includes reading labels and following guidelines regarding the number and variety of fruits and vegetables, protein, grains, fiber, total fat and calorie intake, vitamins, and minerals.
