" Speaking at the annual meeting of the American Association for the

Advancement of Science in Washington DC, Prof said: " Animal source

foods have some nutrients which are not found anywhere else. If you're

talking about feeding young children and pregnant women and lactating

women I would go as far as to say it is unethical to withhold these

foods during that period of life. "
