Vegan iron for kids! How to help your vegan child get enough iron on a plant based diet

Gen Season 1 Episode 12

Dealing with a picky eater can make meal times a challenge, especially when you're aiming for a nutritious, vegan diet.


And if you're a parent trying to ensure your child gets enough plant-based iron without resorting to supplements, this episode is tailored just for you. 


Today, we're diving deep into vegan nutrition for kids, focusing on vegan iron-rich foods that even the fussiest eaters can't resist! 


We'll explore why iron is so important for your vegan child's development and discuss why supplements should only be a consideration in specific circumstances. I'll also share creative strategies for incorporating vegan iron into foods that kids already love and the importance of gradually introducing iron rich whole foods to diversify your child's diet without overwhelming them.


Meal planning doesn't have to be a source of stress. As a mom of 2 picky eaters and a vegan nutritionist, I'll provide you with actionable tips to enrich your vegan child's diet in a fun and effortless way.


Join me as we tackle the challenges of ensuring your fussy eater gets all the plant-based iron they need with joy and ease!
