It’s easy to say you’re going vegetarian or vegan, but taking action is a bit less straightforward for most people transitioning to this lifestyle. For instance, do you know how to create a well-rounded, plant-based meal? How will you ensure you won’t miss out on important nutrients now that you’re eliminating animal products from your diet? And how will you avoid getting stuck in a rut of eating the same foods over and over again?
“I see people who are not prepared, so they don’t eat balanced diets, end up feeling unwell, and then just give up,” says plant-powered dietitian Sharon Palmer, MSFS, RDN. “You must be prepared and learn how to eat a balanced diet, so you feel vibrant and satisfied.”
