Basic Philosophy
or Approach
Following in the footsteps of our popular eDiets Weight Loss plan, the Vegetarian Meal Plan offers flexibility and convenience while excluding some or all animal products, depending on your preference.
Foods That Aren't
Allowed
May exclude all animal products except eggs and/or dairy products, depending on personal preference – unless choosing the vegan plan, which excludes all animal products.
Risks
It is important to ensure adequate vitamin and mineral intake on a vegetarian meal plan. By following your meal plan, you will have plant-based sources of important vitamins and minerals such as calcium, iron and zinc. However, you will need to take a Vitamin B-12 supplement, since B-12 is only found in animal products and a deficiency can lead to nerve damage. You may wish to take a general multi-vitamin as well.
