Calling All Vegetarians! Help!

Hi J.-Actually we have been so misinformed. Meats and cook foods have absolutely no nutrients that our body can utilize. I won't go into a long explanation you can feel free to contact me. I have been studying food, supplements and nutrition for 20+ years and was in the industry for 8 of those years.

We need to eat 65% of our food raw. Go to my blog and I have numerous awesome websites for vegetarians and vegans. Also www.allrecipes.com has great recipes as well.

www.originalgranolgirl.blogspot.com.

This is a great website

www.meat.org

Click on the raw food section (on my blog) and also under earthy products I have some really great sustainable farm websites amongst others.

A good read for you would be the pH balance by Drs. Young.

www.mercola.com also talks about the benefits and has some great books to order on the subject with recipes.

I have been truly vegan for over a year and prior to that strictly did organics (never red meat though) for 6 years. Right now we have never been more healthy!!

Good luck on your journey and please feel free to contact me with any further info.

I just found this!! How funny!!

If you like Indian food, then try out some Indian cookbooks. There are many that are just vegetarian and you will get plenty of nutritious food ideas. Also try this website www.sanjeevkapoor.com - Good indian recipes by a very famous Indian chef.

Enjoy,

ditto to Toni's response. While eating vegan, doesn't mean that you will get all the nutrition that your body needs either! You need to get whole food nutrition from organic sources. Supplements are still necessary and while I applaud your decision, make sure you understand that our nutrition is not what it used to be as most fruits and veggies don't have the nutritional value that they once did because of overfarming and pesticides and toxins.

I'd be happy to help you with supplementation if you would like more information. There is a difference in vitamins. Don't be fooled otherwise. Congrats and good luck!

Marilu Henner(she's from TAXI way back when) has a few books out there. She, husband and two boys are vegetarian. I know you'll find her online somewhere.
