children's vitamins

[Guest guest]

Giving your child vitamins isn't a sign that the diet

you are providing, whether vegetarian or not, is a bad

choice. Especially toddlers, but all of us could use

the extra protection that a vitamin supplement

provides. We couldn't possibly eat all in a day that

would naturally provide all of the wonderful vitamins

and minerals and herbs to provide the best health we

can have. I don't think it has anything to do with

being a vegetarian. There may be nutritional value to

meat and other animal products that are lacking in a

vegetarian diet, or are less in a vegetarian diet, but

aniaml products also make lots of things much less

asorbable by the body, so non-vegetarian children

should be on supplements as well!

 

Good luck!

I have vitamins in my cupboard but I don't think my kids ever take them. My

kids drink calcium fortified OJ and fortified Soy Milk. I also make a meal plan

for them every week and make sure I am meeting the guidelines for the amount of

nutrients they need. They are all good eater and eat just about anything I put

on their plates. As long as they look healthy and are full of energy I am not

going to worry about it.

Giving your child a vitamin supplement is just another

way to aid their growing bodies. It shouldn't be an

issue of about diet and vegetarianism, its just

wanting the best health possible for your child. Do

whatever your conscience feels is best for your child

and don't let anyone try to tell you otherwise.
