They need to eat Marmite and Peanuts

I'm vegan and I don't look ill. I did have iron deficiency once but I don't think it was anything to do with being vegan.

It is
as the lack of Proper food.

Iron-Rich Foods:

Legumes: Lentils, beans, and chickpeas are excellent sources of iron.
Dark Leafy Greens: Spinach, kale, and collard greens are good sources of iron.
Fortified Foods: Many breakfast cereals and breads are fortified with iron.
Nuts and Seeds: Pumpkin seeds, chia seeds, and almonds are also good sources of iron.
Dried Fruits: Apricots, prunes, and figs can contribute to iron intake

Pair that lot with vitamin C rich foods for better absorption


Vegans who have a poor Vegan diet will suffer, its about eating well and non vegans are just as bad and suffer from all sorts of issues if they eat poorly

Arista, you are always eating ready meals and other ultra processed crap, that's what's not real food, it's a insult to those poor animals whose lives were taken to go into products like that.

This not true at all, If they eat a varied and healthy diet they don't need any supplements,does anyone ever think of the animals when choosing their food ?

You're always making threads about meal deals, scotch eggs and all that kind of stuff. A bit of tofu and fresh vegetables would do anyone a world of good.

I don't eat meat or use dairy and I assure you I am quite healthy, I love animals so I don't eat them or use their bodily fluids,I dont know why people who eat animals get so triggered by those that don't. If you saw an animals getting abused etc ,you would step in to help,but its okay to turn a blind eye to the terrible conditions factory farms keep their animals in,Ive seen terrible footage it's disgraceful that some humans can do this.

I’m not vegan, but I’ve had some glorious vegan dishes.

I think what I’ll do one of these days is cook jollof rice with goose, rabbit and turkey feet. Upon smelling it and a diluted-goose-stock-spiced-up Earl Grey, you can then decide if you’re still trying to be about the vegan life. It may cause a sudden re-evaluation of plant-based commitments. (Jokes, obviously.)

Redway 09-04-2025 10:33 PM

Redway’s about to get cooking. Who wants peppered rabbit and quail on breadfruit?

I distinctly remember my nurse assistant some time back during my physical asking if I were on a special diet (vegetarian/vegan) and when I said "No", she said "Good". In other words, they shouldn't expect too many problems when they run my bloodwork... I think I had asked about it, but I don't remember exactly what she said, but I think that was gist of it.

It might be because some people go really overboard and go strict with their diet and stick to certain staple comfort foods that don't fill the gap, especially if they struggle with cravings.

I've sometimes struggled with Iron because 1) female and 2) Not being a heavy eater to begin with. I do eat meat though.

If that person is a heavy caffeine person or drink/eats lots of beverages and other processed crap that cause their body to dump nutrients, they can have an issue also. So there's lots of reasons to run into deficiencies. It's hard to blame it on one single thing.
