The dinner will feature unique vegetarian dishes that celebrate Upshur's eight years of study in healthy vegetarian cuisine. Upshur also says that the growing trend of teens turning away from meat is more philosophical than anything else, just like McCartney. Upshur stresses how important it is to be educated if one is to become vegetarian. Especially teens, they need guidance in proper nutrition. Teens think becoming vegetarian means eating salads and carrots.
Today there are Internet sites where kids can get help with learning about proper nutrition.
Dick Muszynski agrees. People need to be careful not to become victims of vegetarianism. I call it mind-set without body wisdom. You see it in teens especially where they suddenly decide to become vegetarians and don't get enough nutrition. The best thing to do before deciding to become a vegetarian is to have a hair-sample analysis.
