[QUOTE="NicoleC1971, post: 2308259, member: 365308"] I'd agree that this is likely given that B12 is normally derived from animal foods (it is actually bacteria based) and thre are only limited plant sources e.g. Nori so vegetarians are vulnerable. Similarly some vegetarians may be deficient in iron and vitamin A because the plant sources of those foods are not well absorbed by everyone whereas the herbivore who has digested plants before you digest them has done a good job converting vitamins and minerals into human friendly forms. [B]5 Vegans and carnivores do agree that sugar is not a useful food as it contains no nutrients and is potentially addictive (challenged). Some advocate that it should be removed from the list of foods Generally Regarded As Safe in the US (Gras status).[/B] [/QUOTE]
