The only thing vegans need to supplement with is B12. Everything else can be had from a balanced diet.
Once you discover nutritional yeast it's hard not to get enough B12.
Depends. Not all nutritional yeast is B12 fortified
Thanks for the warning, didn't know that was a thing!
Don't forget Monster energy drinks! /s sort of. I take a supplement though lol
Nooch does not contain B12. It is sometimes added to it, perhaps even often in the US ? but in the EU for example I've never ever seen B12-fortified nooch.
Oh really? I didn't know they made it without. I just checked mine and it says it has >100% of all the b complex vitamins in a serving (2 tbsp). I do live in the US but I got mine online.
Engevita Nutritional Yeast has B12 right on the front of the packaging. It's the most common brand in the UK. We're not in the EU anymore sadly but it's been the most common brand (only brand really) here for well over a decade now.
Also Vitamin D. You are not doing shit with merely getting sunlight, without having some D2 or D3 in body to breakdown and fuel. That comes from dairy for us Indians.
