If a vegan woman can create A COMPLETELY BRAND NEW HUMAN BEING inside of her, then I am 100% positive that you can be a vegetarian at any age as long as you have a healthy an balanced/varied diet.

Being a vegetarian starts as early as when you are in the womb and has scientifically shown to have no adverse side effects as long as you are compensating properly. Studies have been done on pregnant women who didn't eat animal product in a small Vegan commune in Tennessee and they had a lower rate of problems during pregnancy. Whoever told you that is very misinformed, and there are tons of resources about being vegetarian at all stages and ages of life!

Some people go through their entire lives without eating meat & are perfectly healthy. I know a few persons, including children, who have been vegetarian all their lives & others who stopped eating meat in their mid-teens.

Whether you eat a vegetarian diet or not, it's important that you get the proper nutrition. Read up on vegetarian diets and recipes, and go for it!

5 of my best friends are vegetarians, and so am I. We all became them when we were 12 or 13, and we're all perfectly fine!

you can be a vegetarian at any age. whoever told you that you have to be 18+ is obviously an idiot.
