| Poorly planned
vegetarian diets can be relatively low in
protein, iron, zinc, calcium, Omega 3, Vitamin
A, Vitamin D, and iodine. Vegans may have
particularly low intakes of calcium. Nonetheless,
well- balanced vegetarian and vegan diets
can meet all these nutrient requirements and
are appropriate for all stages of the lifecycle,
Superseeds can be an essential tool in achieving
this. |
