I'm just wondering if anyone on here has actually stopped being a vegetarian because of CD?
I've been vegge for 4 years, and had been one for 6 years previously. My docs have banned all legumes, and I've had a few misfortunate forgetful slip ups with them, that have solidified that ban. I've also not taken well to the same tofu and meat substitute products that I've been eating for years. I'm worried that I'm not getting the protein that I need. I don't live in the UK or US, so it's quite difficult for me to get all the whole foods products that are on the market there.
I've taken up eating fish a lot more that ever before because of the CD, and I just wonder if my more meat might help (of course not the gristly, steaky types.)
I'm at the point where I'm weighing my ethics vs. my health.
Thanks!
