Here are some friends with simlar question as we.And I have this question for many days,anyone help us?
Kitty said: Yes.Ever saince i became VEGAN iv been having some problems...?-I try seach this on internet but no results found.Maybe this is a stupid question.
Mike said: oh,no,you are wrong.I have found as below for this question(Ever saince i became VEGAN iv been having some problems...?),it will help you,my kids.
Iv been vegan for about 8 weeks now, give or take, and I feel perfectly fine, I get up and am ready to go for the day, some days I wake up early. Im not sick or anything. However, Iv noticed that even when pulling up my pants or tightening my beld, my nails bend backwards and its quite painfull, they are very soft. My tummy hurts every so often and sometimes, without warning, I get sick feelings in my tummy that make me feel like im litterly going to get sick, my eyes water sometimes too, but they only last about 5 mins.
My diet is limited because my house dosnt agree with my choices: raisins, dry Life cereal, some plain salad wraps, sometimes some string beans or cooked carots, ocationally a bannana, and a ton of peanutbutter. I think its the peanut butter that saves me really, i think im addicted. But would like to cut it out of my diet because i eat too much of it and in the past 8 weeks iv actually gained weight because of it almost 10 lbs! Im at 140lbs now, im 5%26#039;10%26quot;.

Incorporate different foods in your diet to increase the amount of nutrients you%26#039;re getting.
Just been reading a book called %26#039;The Diet Doctors%26#039;. It mentions nutrients that are needed for strong nails. Increase your intakes of the minerals iron, calcium and zinc.
Also make sure you are getting enough riboflavin (vitamin B2- this isn%26#039;t a typo, I don%26#039;t mean B12). Eat protein rich foods too.
Vegan sources of
Calcium: green leafy vegetables, beans, fortified orange juice, fortified soy milk, rice milk
Iron: green leafy vegetables, nuts %26amp; seeds, peanut butter (!), molasses, beans, wholemeal bread
Zinc: nuts, especially pumpkin seeds, beans (even baked beans), wholegrain cereals
Riboflavin (B2): wholegrains, fortified dairy free milks, bread, fortified spreads/vegan margarine
some protein rich foods: tofu, beans, nuts, soy milk, vegan burgers
I hope this helps. Don%26#039;t limit yourself- there are a number of health boosting vegan foods out there. The next time you go shopping at the grocery store, try something new. :)
It may take a while for your nails to strengthen again. But perservere with a healthy diet. If you like, you can take a supplement. If your health worries persist, see a doctor. However, I think after a few months, with a little dietary adjustment you should be ok.

It%26#039;s not the veganism. It is your terrible limited diet. You need lots of fruit, vegetables, beans, rice, TVP, fortified breakfast cereal like Kashi, soy milk, whole wheat bread, and other vegan things.
You%26#039;re seriously going to die if you keep living like that.

Seems to me you%26#039;re lacking variety in your diet. Where%26#039;s the soy, whole grains, and the bazillion other vegan foods available at your grocery???
Get yourself a cookbook - I reccomend Vegan With A Vengeance - and get cooking.
And try vitamin E - it%26#039;ll help strengthen your nails.

You want to get down to 120 lbs.? Manorexic, aren%26#039;t we?
You aren%26#039;t eating enough raw fruits and veggies--where are your salads? What%26#039;s up with cooked vs. RAW carrots? Where are your deep leafy greens like Swiss chard (eaten raw, of course)?
answer from chineseop.com cooking QA
it takes a while to get accustomed to that type of product because you have fed yourself so much on meat, it blows your tummy due to the high in proteins,fibre etc

Sweetie, if your post is foreal I%26#039;m guessing your working towards, or have an alergy to peanut butter. You need to get yourself a vegetarian cookbook and start eating a ballanced diet.
answer from chineseop.com cooking QA
I think that you aren%26#039;t getting enough nutrients in your diet. I am a vegan and my nails are awesome. You have to make sure that you are getting enough protein and calcium. If you can%26#039;t be a vegan correctly then you shouldn%26#039;t do it because you could do serious damage to your body. It doesn%26#039;t sound like you are eating nearly enough. Don%26#039;t eat a lot of peanut butter. It does have protein but it is fattening. Your weight for your height is fine. By your house not agreeing I guess you mean your family. It is cheap to be a vegan. It isn%26#039;t hard. You have to do your research and read labels for ingredients. Go foodshopping with your mom. Let her know how important this diet is to you and that you would like her to help you so that you can do it in a healthy way. People don%26#039;t like when people go against what they believe in especially former meat eaters who have become vegan. Other than peanut butter you aren%26#039;t getting any protein so you need to find other sources of protein.
