Be informed, take charge, and be
healthy!
The quality of the Mayo
Clinic website is fabulous
and the information extensive. Spend some time on
the WebMD
website. Yes, it's a good resource for specific
questions, but we love the healthy living video
spots!
Thinking about going vegetarian? It's good for the
environment and can be a healthy choice, IF you educate
yourself. This article on
the Mayo Clinic website contains valuable information.
Narrowing your selection of foods means you must plan
your diet well to stay healthy. The elements that
tend to be missing in an unstructured vegetarian
diet are iron, calcium, vitamin B-12, and protein.
Consult your pediatrician if considering a vegetarian
diet for young children.
