Plant-Based & Vegetarian Nutrition

A well-built plant-based diet is one of the better-evidenced ways to eat. A poorly built one is a fast route to low iron, low B12, and a great deal of fatigue people wrongly attribute to going plant-based at all.

The difference is almost entirely in the details: which nutrients actually need attention, which need supplementation rather than food, and how to hit protein when you are working with a wider variety of less concentrated sources. That is straightforward work, but it does need doing deliberately.
