What are your concerns about a plant-based diet?

Key nutrients to consider:

Protein Iron Calcium Vitamin D Zinc Vitamin B12

Protein

Protein is made up of amino acids: – 9 essential amino acids (must be in diet)

11 nonessential amino acids (body can make these) –

High quality = animal proteins (easy to digest; has all essential amino acids) Low quality = plant proteins

High quality plant proteins

Lack of nutrients in a diet

Both vegetarian and meat-containing diets, if not properly balanced, can lack nutrients. Poorly planned meat eaters’ diets may lack vitamin A, vitamin C,

folate, and fiber, among others. Poorly planned vegetarian diets may lack iron, zinc, calcium, omega­

3 fatty acids, vitamin D, and vitamin B12.

“What we include in our diets is as important as what we exclude.”

Dean Ornish, MD

Variety, variety, variety! (keeps diet interesting, maximizes nutrition) Unrefined whole foods are best Eat fruits and vegetables in season Include a fruit or vegetable with each meal Children need more fat than adults (avocados, nut butters, nuts,

vegetable oils) Don’t worry if every meal is not perfectly balanced Check food labels for low sodium and fat, and high fiber Changing the habits of a lifetime cannot be done overnight
