The sun only produces D at a certain point in the sky, and cold climates never do get out thereThen the zinc was added to the oatmeal like D is added to milkB12 calcium iron zinc omega 3s and others, these are not found in vegeesMeat is a necessity or doctors would not prescribe things just for dumb vegitarianspeople believing they should force their way on others. stay in your world.seems you are forcing an agenda here. stay with what you like and we'll stay with what we like. I promise, I won't make any attempt to tell anyone what to eat.Where did I ever tell anyone what to eat?blues, good for you. I'm good with who I am. I love my meat, I will do what I want. welcome back to america.It's easy to do correctlyyou don't need to eat any meat at all.We eat far too much meat in this nation....I'm not complaining but it's the truth. There are plenty of protein sources that can sustain us with less expense and much less strain to our physical being than meat causes.
Years ago I knew a vegan who suffered from protein deficiency and he refused to take his doctor's advice to have one or two buffalo burgers a month...." That's all you need " he said....but because my friend was a religious Vegan he held out. Eventually he developed a horrible open sore on his nose that made it impossible for him to do his job as a department administrator who had to face dozens of people every day....so after checking with his Maharishi or whoever the hell his spiritual counselor was he decided to do two buffalo burgers a month..... Voila! His sore healed up is a matter of a few weeks and to this day this is all the meat he consumes..

I have been following a fellow named Marcus Rothkranz who is a vegan and a prolific health writer
he is 50 and looks like he's 27. He does say however that should you choose to be a vegan you must do it correctly. That I believe.

I adopted a whole food vegan diet 3 months ago and feel so good I don't think I'll ever go back to eating meat.
I will correct false assumptions when they arise but I don't care what anyone else does
No it's you who think I am forcing an agenda.
All I ever said was meat is not necessary. I will correct false assumptions though.
WHat are you so defensive about?
Where did I ever tell anyone what to eat?
Please quote the exact words.
But you won't because you can't.
So stop fabricating arguments and attributing them to me
All I ever said is meat is not a neccessity in a healthy diet.
What do Doctors prescribe just for vegetarians? Because my Doctor took me off off my blood pressure meds and didn't precribe anything else at my annual physical last month

B12 isn't made by livestock either.
In fact B12 is the product of bacteria in the soil and livestock are given B12 supplements along with their antibiotics and steroids now.
And in fact there are many plants that contain zinc. A cup of oatmeal contains 21% of the daily recommended value for zinc
Spinach is loaded with iron
Chia seeds flax brussel sprouts and other plants contain omega 3 fatty acids
Do you not realize that everything you think you get eating meat is contained in all the plant matter that the animal eats?
In fact a cow has to be fed 6 kg of plant protein to make 1 kg of dietary protein.
And as I said I haven't been prescribed anything by my doctor because I have given up animal products but rather was taken off my blood pressure medication.

We don't need to add vitamin d to milk all we have to do is get outside in the sun.
And is zinc added to wild rice, quinoa, squash and pumpkin seeds, mushrooms, black beans, etc etc etc?
Where do you think the iron , zinc or any other mineral you get from meat comes from?
It comes from the plants fed to the animals
