Guest guest Posted June 27, 2008 Report Share Posted June 27, 2008 >For instance a b12 deficiency takes about a year to show up in a blood test. Just a note: They (whoever 'they' are) say that we all have enough B12 in our systems _before_ going vegan to last us about three years _after_ we become vegan. So don't panic about this straight away, okay? Some take supplements, some find B12 in foods, and some do both. You may want to go to our Links section to check food and nutrition - the various vegetarian societies provide information too, and some of their links are also there. Meanwhile, since this email is about B12 I offer you this link out of that lot - to get you started: " Reliable Vegan Sources of Vitamin B12 " http://www.vrg.org/nutrition/b12.htm#reliable It's pretty sane Good luck. (Btw, I'm one of those who now does food AND supplements.) Love and hugs, Pat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
