A WOMAN from Dorchester has published a new book promoting the vegan diet for infants.
Sandra Hood, who works as an NHS dietitian, has launched her new book Feeding Your Vegan Infant, which promotes plant-based diets for young people.
The book, which is available from Amazon, Hammersmith Books and The Book Depository, was launched during an event yesterday evening at Vibes Café in Dorchester - a vegan and vegetarian restaurant which opened in March.

She said: "My new book 'Feeding Your Vegan Infant' came out yesterday."
The book gives tips on people planning a pregnancy or a health professional needing further information on nutritional guidelines for a vegan infant.
It takes readers through all nutritional aspects of pregnancy up to early childhood and on to the teenage years following a purely plant-based diet.
The book provides practical advice on dietary essentials, menu planning, and recipes together with vegan family stories to highlight the benefits and potential pitfalls of adopting this way of eating.
