A concerned mother writes

While I am not a vegetarian, my 18-year-old son has chosen this dietary style recently.

In an effort to help him maintain a balanced diet and sound nutrition, I searched the internet for information. Your website, by far, is the most balanced, fact-based, and helpful information I have found. It is very educational for me and for him. It provides dietary guidelines as well as lots of recipes, including low cost ones. This is his biggest challenge right now as he has just moved out and is living with a relative who doesn't shop or eat this way.

Thank you for providing a source of information that is not silly or extremist, but which presumes that there are many different reasons people choose to eat vegetarian, and provides the information on how to do it properly.

You give a much needed "balanced" viewpoint.
