iron supplements variety says
I’m new to being a vegan and I just want to know a bit of the vitamins I should take to stop me from getting sick. I’m a vegetarian and have been for two months because of the animal cruelty – except I want to go further. I got pretty sick when I stopped eating meat because I wasn’t taking my iron supplements. Now that I’m vegan what should I take?? . . Thanks in advance..
