    Why do the farm animals raised for meat need to be feed b12 in order to be ready for slaughter?

    Edit: Also why do Canadians need to supplement vitamin d. So your diet is pretty lacking too according to your own logic.

        Vitamin D supplementation is recommended for all Canadians, not just vegans. And Omega 3, D, and B12 are common supplement recommendations (actually backed by strong evidence) for the general population. (Although the benefits of Omega 3 supplementation for heart health has come under scrutiny, I think its anti-inflammatory effects are still pretty widely supported.)

        Anyway, no need for the vitriol. Nobody is forcing you to go vegan. If it works for them, then great! It’s definitely better for the planet to eat less meat, so power to them. (I eat way too many eggs to ever consider going vegan, personally.)

      Yeah I’m sorry but nature didn’t make us that way. It’s fair to protect animals from the food industry but not eating what your body needs isn’t solving it.

      If you want to avoid meat still do look into how our body doesn’t need a lot of Fibre and it causes stomach bloating (like cows, goats).

      old people have lots of damage due to food habits. Be careful what you choose
