Guest guest Posted September 13, 2004 Report Share Posted September 13, 2004 Hi, I've toyed off and on with veganism for a few years now. It's such a battle of the conscience. Spiritually and emotionally it just gets harder and harder to eat meat/dairy. I have a couple fears which inevitably force me back into eating meat. I wonder if any of you more experienced vegans can assuage my concerns: 1) The whole B-12 issue. I've read a few articles (maybe too many??), and I'm scared I won't get enough B-12 b/c it has to come from an animal; and therefore I could end up with brain damage or some other neurological problem. 2) Weakness and lethargy. Even though I am careful to get enough protein, I still at times found myself weak and not feeling as satiated as I did when eating meat. I am hypoglycemic so this scares me as I sometimes would get the shakes. Does anyone else have expereience with this? I so don't want to eat meat, but these physical fears really scare me. Thanks for any and all help! Mary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
