    B12 would be a much better argument tbh. That said, modern vegan diets can have enough B12 if theyre fortified. IF being the key word.

      they inject animals with b12 supplements. So yo may as well take the supplement yourself

        Grain fed cattle are fed a Cobalt mineral supplement because grains do not have significant amounts of Cobalt. Grass fed cattle,fish and other animals typically do obtain enough B12 or Cobalt from their diet to not require supplementation i.e free range/organic farms/ranches.

        So basically, the fact that factory farms need to supplement their cattle with Cobalt is something vegans should be talking more about because it is arguably another example of cruelty that vegans wish to avoid participating in.

      Doesn’t really matter what it is. There’s healthy people and unhealthy people and the dividing line isn’t vegan/non-vegan. The post is about veganism being a target of “concern” by on-lookers when other diets have equally real health concerns
