Am J Clin Nutr 08/28/2003: 10 current research articles on vegetarianism

[Guest guest]

These 10 articles are found in yesterday's release of Am J Clin Nutr, an issue

featuring vegetarian research and discoveries. Indeed, clinical nutrition is a

good career; perhaps the professing is now discovering vegetarianism; at least

clinical nutrition is discovering the presence of us practicing vegetarians and

their need to understand us, our practices, and the implications of those

practices, pro and con. In the interim, if we're watching (or just looking in),

the ordinary garden variety vegetarian-in-the-street (talk about mixed

metaphors) can learn a great deal from these discussions.
