Can someone please tell me if Pete's kids are on the best diet known to man EVER why do 10 and 12 yo girls need any supplements let alone liver extract ? Two of my girls were vegetarian from 4&6 yo. Neither ever needed supplements. Not Iron. Not Vitamins. Nothing but food. They grew up to be very healthy women.


Sugar, whether from starch or simple sugars, is a dietary mainstay for many vegetarians. Maybe can't blame meat for all the world's ills and still have too much room in your heart for hating sugar.

Personally, I think the kids probably don't need supplements, and are less likely to need supplements than those vegetarian kids (but if those kids are eating eggs and/or dairy, it's likely they don't need supplements, either). Taking supplements is not evidence that supplements are needed.
