[Erratum from yesterday’s post on Vitamin A: The amount of vitamin A in the chart at VeganHealh.org in mangoes was listed as 181 for 1 cup. I copied the amount from the wrong column – it is actually 89 for 1 cup.]

Commenting on a report by the International Osteoporosis Foundation (IOF), Ginny Messina, MPH, RD has an interesting post on retaining muscle and bone mass in older age, Staying Strong on a Vegan Diet: Protein and Muscles.

Ginny also has added the Food Guide 4 Vegans from our book, Vegan For Life, to her website, which provides a convenient way, especially for new vegans, to see how to eat in order to meet all the nutrition requirements.
