RE: My How To Go Vegan Guide For Dummies
Hi, thanks for taking the time to put this together! Great job! Q: What about B12? And, my research debunks soy as a good “food”. Particularly soy oil, and soy protein powder. Your thoughts?
B12 supplementation is a great idea, you can get from any chemist. Regards soy being healthy or unhealthy. If you can just eat whole plant foods that's best. If you need to use soy products to help you transition great. If you want to use soy products infrequently no issue. I would not be eating processed soy products everyday.
You hit the nail on the head. Eat whole plant foods, even when we eat soy. I don’t mind eating some of Edame (whole soy) , Or tofu, or tempeh every now and then, but I stay away from soy oil, soy protein isolate, basically anything that needs to be processed to be edible. Eat it whole all the way!
Youre welcome thanks for reading! Ah yes B12. It seems as vegans we get two things, protein and B12 questions! most people are deficient in B12 as meat eaters so its not a bad idea to suppliment that. I personally have been taking a chew-able every other week with a high dosage. So i recommend just to be safe why not. As for soy i will leave you with this video to watch.
