Making the Switch
from:If you are considering making the switch to a vegetarian
diet, you probably will want to pass your newfound
nutritional knowledge onto your family. In fact, as a
parent you probably want to ensure that your family is
receiving the best nutrition possible. It also helps them
to learn about why it is important to eat healthy.
Making the switch with a family can be difficult because
children are even more tempted from the various fast
food restaurants and commercials for snacks on
television. It’s very hard to make veggies look good
over chicken nuggets and a free toy!
You have to slowly change you and your family’s diet.
Everything starts at the grocery store. Instead of
cookies, buy apples, bananas, carrots and other tasty
snacks. Exchange white rice for healthy, brown rice.
You also want to avoid processed side dishes. Slowly
make your meat portions smaller and increase more
veggies and grains. If you have small children, it is
much easier to make this switch. You can teach them
from an early age that olives are good snacks and that
peaches are good desserts. They will learn to love
these foods and they won’t even know about all the
other junk food out there. The real challenge will come
when your children are in school and they have to learn
to make healthy choices.
The idea is to gradually change so that it is easier on
you and your family. Many children will change simply
because you tell them that they are saving the lives of
animals. Children are very sympathetic and it’s not
unusual for children to become vegetarians on their
own accord simply because they don’t want to eat
animals.
Your children may not realize it now, but you are doing
them a huge favor that will last them their entire lives.
Childhood obesity is at epidemic levels in the US and
you will be setting your children up for a healthy lifestyle
by teaching them how to eat healthy now.
