Updated template. Had no idea on who the knucklehead from the original template was.

    It’s actually not quite as easy, you do have to at least get a rough understanding of what you need and where to get it.

    Especially for women, iron deficiency is a real problem. For some reason, they lose a bunch of iron every month and that needs to be replaced. A lot of women are running low on iron even with “conventional” diets, so dumping all the iron rich animal products can be a problem.

    It’s far from impossible, but you have to educate yourself a bit about your needs.

      But thats true about nutrition in general. A lot of people have deficiencies without being vegan, this stereotype that veganism is somehow dangerous unless you know what you’re doing is just wrong. People need to be more educated about nutrition in general independently of veganism.
