Diet worries
Q My 12-year-old daughter is set on doing Veganuary this year, but I’m worried about her getting enough protein and nutrients. Is it safe for a child to do? Dianne, Ealing
If your child is choosing a vegan diet, ensure they get a wide variety of foods to provide the energy and vitamins they need for growth.
