Hi Celsie

I was a vegetarian for 10 years but got quite ill - fainting, dizzy and poor eyesight. When they ran tests, I was extremely low in iron and B12 and I had to have injections.

So the moral of the story is that if you (or your kids) are going to be vegetarian, you need to read up on it and make sure they have a good, balanced diet - I was pretty poor at making sure I got the proper nutrients, hence why I got sick.
