question on veg protein!

[Guest guest]

Hi All,

 

I'm new to the list. I'm a vegetarian. I've had eggs and dairy

products but of late I've not been having eggs/dairy and started

having lots of raw foods, salads and fruits. I started feeling tired

and one of my friends suggested that it could be because I'm

consuming enough protein and my blood cell count could be low. Are

there any FAQs to read on veganism and nutrition. Are there other

sources of protein besides tofu?

 

Thanks for your help.

Naga.

Naga,

 

Staying a Healthy Vegan, an article I've written for Vegan Outreach,

explains all of the things vegans should generally be aware of. It's at:

 

http://www.veganoutreach.org/health/stayinghealthy.html/

 

Raw foods (except for avocados and nuts), salads and fruits tend not to be

very high in calories. You might simply be needing more energy. The article

talks about other possibilities.

 

Good luck,
