A lot of people seem to be under the impression that vegans have to be consistently buying and taking large amounts of vitamins to stay alive, don’t have enough protein in their diets and are all iron deficient.

• Fat & Saturated Fat: 20-30% of daily calorie intake:
A list of high fat vegan foods
• Sugar:
• Sodium
Additional Nutrients:
•Protein:
+ Vegetarian complete protein
• Carbohydrates/Fibre:
Vitamins & Minerals*
