How do you get your calcium/protein/iron?!


Question:

How do you get your calcium/protein/iron?

When your on raw food diet or vegan diet...how do you get your calcium/protien/iron?
What about when your doing an elimination diet or cleansing? Where do these nutrients come from?


Answers:
Good sources of iron include dried figs and prunes, dark-green leafy greens, legumes, certain whole grains such as quinoa and millet, blackstrap molasses, nuts and nutritional yeast.

Green leafy vegetables such as kale are as good or better than milk as calcium sources. Other good sources include: White/Wholemeal bread, Taco Shells, Oats, Soyabeans, Tofu, Almonds, Brazil Nuts, Pistachios, Sunflower Seeds, Sesame Seeds, Flax Seed, Carob, Carrots, Cabbage, Garlic, Parsley Spirulina, Chives, Seaweed, Cauliflower, Okra, Cassava, Figs, Papaya, Rhubarb, Molasses...

Protein is the easiest since everything has it. Pulses (peas, beans and lentils), nuts, seeds and grains are great sources.

eat 2-4 tums twice a day for ever!!

Eat your nuts, soy and beans. If you need to, take a vitamin supplement of B12. Basically if you have soy and nuts every day and you eat enough to live, you will live healthily.

Vitamin enriched soya milk..............you'll be as grumpy as fk... if you don't have some description of milk alternative.................:)

i don't know about vegitarians but i love meat such as a fat juicy delicious steak. *salivates* i just eat meat and i'm perfectly healthy.

you should eat fruits, all kind of nuts vegetables and drink lot of juice...............

Eat your green leafy veggies like spinach, collards, mustard greens, &c. for iron & trace minerals. Calcium is found in milk, dolomite, and other sources. Get your protein from combining vegetable sources: rice and beans, soybeans, and so on. Eat a lot of different kinds of things, and take your supplements.
For a cleansing diet, try lots of roughage and bran. That'll do it!

if you have milk means you have calcium and the others will give you protein and iron
