Why vegetarian diet checker matters
A vegetarian diet excludes meat and fish but may include dairy products and eggs. It focuses on plant foods with optional animal-derived products like milk, cheese, and eggs.
- Eggs and dairy can help meet protein needs
- Include a variety of plant proteins for balanced nutrition
- Iron-rich foods pair well with vitamin C
- Don't rely too heavily on cheese as a protein source
- B12 is still important if limiting animal products

What to know about raspberry
Raspberries look innocent but they stack three separate triggers: they are high in salicylates, very high in oxalates and moderate in FODMAPs, which is why searches like "are raspberries high oxalate" and "do raspberries cause itching or reflux" keep coming up. The upside is that in a small serving they stay lower in FODMAPs than most berries, so a spoonful is often tolerated even when a full bowl is not.
Watch for
- Very high in oxalates, the standout trigger here, a concern if you are prone to kidney stones or follow a low-oxalate diet
- High in salicylates, so raspberries can drive itching, hives or reflux in people who react to aspirin-type foods
- Moderate FODMAP: small servings are usually fine but a large bowl brings enough polyols to unsettle a sensitive gut
- Mildly higher in histamine and tyramine than most fresh fruit, worth noting if amines are your issue
