Q149: Hi Master Lu! I am now almost a full vegetarian, but I am concerned that I am not getting enough nutrition. What can I do?
A149:
Vegetarian food can be very healthy and nutritious.
It is best if we could ensure that we have a balanced diet, as we need to take care of our body. Buddhas and Bodhisattvas also would like us to have a healthy body so that we can better cultivate in this world.
Vegetarians can consume eggs. Eggs are nutritious and the consumption of eggs is accepted by Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. This is because most eggs are not fertilised and cannot hatch. However, please avoid consuming quail eggs as they are already fertilised.
Vegetarians can consume milk and other dairy products for the intake of calcium and other important nutrients.
It is recommended that you consume more soy products, as they are high in protein. Soy products include soybeans, bean curd, tofu sheets, and soy milk, etc.
You can also choose other soy products such as soy ham, soy sausage, soy meat, and soy duck, etc. These soy products contain lecithin and are high in protein. They are also very tasty.
Vegetarians can be creative and have a wide variety. You can steam, boil, or stir-fry your dishes. If the taste is too plain and you have the same dishes over a long period of time, you may lack certain important dietary elements.
It is also recommended that you consume more fruits and vegetables, and have a balanced diet rich in different kinds of essential vitamins.
Mushrooms and fungus are also very nutritious and tasty.
In addition, you can consume multi-grain and nuts including peanuts, walnut, and chestnuts. These are all very nutritious.
You can also take health supplements including lecithin and calcium. Lecithin is particularly beneficial for the brain. Every day we cycle through a large number of brain cells, and the regeneration of new cells is relatively slow. Taking lecithin would help with the regeneration of your brain cells and enhance your memory.
