Guest guest Posted December 2, 2007 Report Share Posted December 2, 2007 Since we all need a minute amount of fat in our diet, how can I get this as a vegetarian?

Yes, indeed. Don't forget, too, that beans, grains and seeds all contain oil/fat, some more than others. Actually, quite a lot of vegetables have fat in them. It's not a worry. If you're concerned about getting your daily quota of Omega-3, you can sprinkle ground flax seed on your cereal or add it to salads. Great tasting stuff!

Great tasting stuff! Indeed! (Remember to refrigerate pre-ground flax seed so it doesn't go rancid.) Flax seed is especially important if you eat lots of walnuts because walnuts have omega-6 and the flax helps to balance it. Sparrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 2, 2007 Report Share Posted December 2, 2007 Thanks for getting back to me on the " fat question " . I'm STILL trying to convince my parents I want to go veggie. However, they keep coming up with all these things that believe I cannot do if I go vegetarian... --- Sparrow R Jones <sparrowrose wrote: > On 12/2/07, Pat <drpatsant wrote: > > > >If you're > > concerned about getting your daily quota of > Omega-3, > > you can sprinkle ground flax seed > > on your cereal or add it to salads.
