Important Nutrients and Sources for a Plant-Based Diet

In the table that follows, I’ve called out some key nutrients to be mindful of when following a plant-based diet. This is not an exhaustive list, and supplements, except for those listed below, are not typically necessary when a person is following a varied plant-based diet. At the end of the book, I’ve provided additional references and further reading if you’re interested in delving deeper. For further questions or concerns, talk to your primary care physician.
