More and more people are deciding to turn vegetarian - including almost a quarter of teenage girls. A diet high in plant foods has many benefits, but a haphazard vegetarian choice can lead to problems - such as iron-deficiency anaemia, low calcium intake and deficiencies of other minerals and vitamins. Healthy Vegetarian Eating describes the health benefits of a vegetarian diet and shows how to avoid the pitfalls. Many choices are listed which will provide an adequate intake of all nutrients.Rosemary Stanton uses her great experience as one of Australia's leading nutritionists to debunk a number of common myths about vegetarian eating. This concise, practical book has been written particularly with those in mind who come from traditional meat-eating families and need more information on healthy vegetarian eating.
