Nutrition for Vegan Families - Vegan diet and plant based nutrition for vegan kids

Gen Rees-Carter - Vegan Nutritionist

As a vegan parent, you're committed to providing your family with a healthy, ethical, and sustainable diet. You've put in the time and effort to research and learn about plant-based nutrition, but you may still face challenges in ensuring your family gets all the nutrients they need while navigating the complexities of a vegan lifestyle.


You're not alone in this journey, and any struggles you face are not a reflection of your dedication or abilities as a parent. The truth is, the strategies and approaches you've been following may not fully consider your unique family dynamics, lifestyle, or dietary needs.


Hi there, I'm Gen, a certified vegan nutritionist and proud mother of two amazing boys.


With years of experience in plant-based nutrition and firsthand knowledge of the challenges vegan families face, I'm here to tell you that providing a balanced, nutrient-rich vegan diet for your loved ones doesn't have to be overwhelming or complicated.


Welcome to the Nutrition for Vegan Families podcast, where I share practical tips, strategies, and insights tailored to your family's needs, helping you make informed decisions and create a sustainable, healthy vegan lifestyle that works for you.


I've been where you are, navigating the world of vegan parenting and questioning whether I was doing everything right for my boys. It was through my own journey of discovery and learning that I found the tools and knowledge to create a thriving, healthy vegan household.


Join me each week as we explore the latest in vegan nutrition research, dive into helpful strategies for meal planning and preparation, and discuss real-life experiences of vegan families just like yours. Together, we'll create a supportive community and empower you to confidently nourish your family with a plant-based diet.


Ready to take the next step in your vegan family journey? Let's start building a healthier, happier future together.
