What kind of foods and/or vitamins or w/e do you need to eat/take to take the place of meat?


Y'know since you don't get your protein and other nutrients from meat , where do you get it?

You should not need any vitamins or minerals. Where do I get my protein? Everything I eat has protein in it, some more so then others though.

For you I would recommend you eat a variety of different seeds, nuts, legumes, and vegetables everyday to get all the protein you need.

Beans,legumes,nuts,seeds,dairy,eggs,whol... grains and vegetables all contain protein in varying amounts-it's easy to get enough. The only other nutrient found primarily in animal sources is B12-if you eat dairy and eggs it's no problem but there are many fortified cereals and most soy milk is fortified or there are good supplements for it. Everything else is primarily found in plant foods : )

peanut butter (or peanuts), soy beans, red beans, eggs (for those that are okay with them).... There's much more out there.

Soy beans are a complete source of amino acids, like meat. Also grains and legumes consumed together give you all your amino acids too. Like wheat, wild rice, quinoa or triticale. With peanuts, black beans, chana dal, or black eyed peas.

You will need to take vitamin tablets but if you follow a proper plant based meal and ensure that they have the right nutrients for your age then you'll be ok

Lots of human manufactured supplements. Bring lots of money they are expensive. Or you can eat bales of plants, nuts and berries to get what you can get out of 2 oz. of fish.

balanced proteins from non-meat sources...[amino acids]

beans and rice.

eat well,eat often.

protein you can get from mostly eggs, and vitamen supplements, Iron you can get from supplements, and many other things, i personally take a iron drink a bit like a milkshake and this can make up for a meal
