Whether you choose to raise your kids on a vegan diet for ethical reasons or for health reasons or environmental reasons or all the above, you may know that feeding your kids a vegan diet can support their growth and development. However, many outside the vegan community continue to question whether a vegan diet is actually nutritionally adequate for a child. And even strongly oppose a vegan diet for children, saying a vegan diet is cruel or dangerous for a growing child.  In today’s episode, I am debunking three myths about a vegan diet for children to bring awareness and to finally show that kids who follow a vegan diet can grow into healthy humans.  Here’s what we cover: >> How a vegan diet can be nutritionally adequate at every stage of growth >> Why is meat and dairy so central to society’s meal plan? >> The nutrients that are believed to be missing on a plant-based diet >> Why non-heme iron from plant-based foods is more advantageous  >> How the animal agriculture industry is one of the biggest industries that intentionally inflict pain and suffering  >> Is a vegan diet more expensive than an omnivore diet?  Links mentioned in the episode >> Ep 1. Is a vegan diet unsafe for children? >> Vegan Kids Nutrition Blueprint course  Read the transcript here ___________________________________________ If you're raising a vegan baby and are about to start solids, set yourself and your baby up for success by knowing how to offer a variety of foods with my FREE 100+ Plant-Based Foods for your vegan baby.
