I heard that increasing water intake helps, there are also medication you can take to help lactation, did you also try vitamins like iron to replace the red meat intake ? I would consult a doctor or just ask a pharmacist. I'm due in September and everyone in my family are low suppliers, so I'm super nervous about this hope this helps you though

Awww she sure does she's so pretty and has a sweet ora about herself.

The mashed banana / oat cookies are a staple around here! But sweet potato frosting? Haven't tried that yet but it does sound delicious!! Any specific recipe you'd recommend?

@@veggiesandmorethe first time i saw the recipe was years ago at Detoxinista blog i believe. Since then i’ve seen it many places, and now with the purple ube sweet potatoe popularity its another gorgeous color! I sub dates and carob powder instead of maple syrup. Some great plant based children’s cookbooks out their now too! I hope you do more recipe videos! Isa Chandra Moskowitz has some great cookies and desserts books, that’s where i first tried the mash banana cookie and my fav choco chip rosemary cookie.Erin McKenna’s babycakes vegan cookbook has some fun recipes that use agave, but not sugar free exactly.

It could. As long as you make sure it contains both fruits and/or vegetables, a grain, as well as a large enough source of plant-based protein. It basically needs to be filling as a meal. :)

That's a tough one! Toddlers usually prefer "snack" foods compared to foods you'd typically find in a meal. I believe exposure is key. The more often you offer them a food, the more likely they are to accept it eventually. Remember, the ":what" falls under your responsibility, no matter how much your toddler would like to take that responsibility on! So I'd suggest trying to come up with interesting ways to offer "non-snacky" foods more consistently, so that he/she gets exposed to them more often :)

Best to make ones own, i add a few dates and alternative choco powder.

Indeed, most oat milks contain some oil (it's added to improve the mouthfeel of the oatmilk, which is naturally very low in fat). However, this amount is minimal, and far from what I'd describe as "bulked with" or "a lot". While you can definitely make your own plant milks, I prefer using calcium-enriched store-bought versions as I find these very helpful in reaching my daily calcium requirements. It can actually be quite difficult to meet calcium recommendations from plant foods alone, so these calcium-fortified products can really help with this. If you'd prefer avoiding the tiny amount of oil added to some of the store-bought plant milks, you can always opt for one that doesn't contain any added oils! If you prefer making your own, I'd recommend making sure that the other food choices you make throughout the day do help you meet your daily calcium requirements.

Studies show many non vegans and non vegetarians are also B12 deficient. Vegans should take B12 tablets daily which is just as absorbable and affordable.

Also fortified foods such as nutrional yeast and plant milks. I drink Silk Unsweetened Soymilk.

The majority of ancestral groups have not eaten dairy outside of breast milk for thousands of years. Some Africans, Europeans, and Middle Easterners can tolerate dairy but the vast majority of people have a form of lactose intolerance. That’s proof in and of itself we don’t need it. Look at Polynesians or other Asian groups, they don’t consume any dairy products traditionally.

That’s a great topic! I’ll add it to the list 😊

Lol you think the average person knows what placement they have in their 10th house? 😂😂

These recommendations are general, so they can definitely be adjusted based on your individual needs. If half a plate of veggies feels like too much, and you don't have issues meeting your micronutrient requirements or maintaining an ideal body weight, then perhaps a ratio of 1/3 veggies, 1/3 grains or starchy veggies, 1/3 beans, nuts, or seeds would work better for you. :)

You are so welcome! :) 🤗

🤣

Glad it was helpful!

Thank you for such a sweet comment :)

@@veggiesandmore please use your education to help people see veganism is possible and respond to videos saying vegan isn’t health with your education would help the animals so much!

😂

It sounds like your little one needs more personalised care, which is definitely not something I can advise on without knowing all the details of his case. I strongly advise you to reach out to your paediatrician to devise a plan of action. A referral to a paediatric dietitian would likely also be very helpful. If you can't find any dietitians in your region and would rather book a nutrition consultation with me, feel free to email me directly so we can set it up. Good luck!

@@veggiesandmore thanks very much,I will try to find one ..I will be in touch again
