> >> >> calcium and
> >> >> vitamin B12. Nutrient deficiencies are a particular concern
> >> >> when it

> >> >>
> >> >> What's more, vegan kids typically eat less fat and

> >> >> and
> >> >> more fruits and vegetables than other children do, note

> >> >> and
> >> >> vegetables to fill all their dietary needs. A typical vegan

> >> >>
> >> >> While these substitutions can work for babies and children,
> >> >> parents
> >> >> need to ensure their children are getting enough of certain
> >> >> vitamins
> >> >> and minerals, according to Messina and Mangels. For
> >> >> example,

> >> >> The researchers also advise that breast-fed infants of
> >> >> vegan
> >> >> mothers
> >> >> get a regular supplement of vitamin B12, since maternal
> >> >> stores
> >> >> of the
> >> >> vitamin may be low. Infant soy formulas are fortified with
> >> >> vitamin
> >> >> B12 and other nutrients, but Messina and Mangels stress

> >> >> younger than one year. As with all infants, an

> >> >> the

> >> >> (vitamin

> >> >>
