Give it up, bougainville.
Is protein the only 'missing' nutrient from being vegetarian?
I was quite shocked that he was advised to eat meat and very weird experience to see a big grown man nearly vomit at nibbling on a tiny morsel of fish.
I'd like to only eat poultry and sea food as I don't eat much of the other stuff anyway (beef, pork, lamb etc) literally the only thing that stops me from totally cutting it out is Dim Sum and vegetarian dim sum isn't that nice from what I've had.
Supplements needed for vegans are B12 for sure. Protein is overated. A varied diet is needed, if the vegan/vegetarian is only eating the same vegetables/fruit/nuts everyday, then some deficiencies will occur
I am not sure if that is the case, but as bbchris above has just said, B12 is one of them. Omega 3 is another that comes to mind, and may be hard to source if one does not consume eggs (or seafood). But as my ex-gf does, taking flax oil supplement would take care of that.
