the biggest issue with vegtarian diets is that some people, specially children need animal protien, so do males who do hard work for a living.

The older you get the less meat you need and a vegetarian type of diet becomes more beneficial but for children and most people under 40 who have an active lifestyle it is generally NOT healthy

and a vegan diet is bad period. You really need fish in your diet at the very least ...specially fish high in omega 3 like salmon but the protein is the main thing ask any good qualified nutritionist.
