Hello there. I can understand your concern. I'm a vegetarian and I'm perfectly fine . I get enough protein in my diet. It's a misconception that people have. Milk, pulses etc are great sources of proteins. There is nothing like you need to have meat only to get protein. Remember, the chicken, lamb etc which you have for protein are vegetarians. Best regards. Dr. Anil Kumar Jain. Bangalore.
