      I opened up my diet to the occasional fish (scrimps) because I hadn’t managed to force enough flax into my diet to have all the omegas I need.

          Probably? Idk I’ve never managed to remember to take supplements, I’ve got some gnarly adhd. I’ve been working on the same bottle of Vitamins for like 6 years, YaKnow?

          So like, yeah I’m sure there’s a supplement, but I also don’t think it’s that big a deal to eat 6 oceanic mud bugs a week.

          (For reference the reason I ever went vegan at all was in response to driving past an overcrowded slaughterhouse and seeking the conditions the animals were kept in, it was horrific. I avoid farmed animal products like the plague, and I try to be responsible in the amount of hunted animal products I use, like I said, just 6 scrimps a week.

            Makes sense. Taking supplements is hard. My doctor wants me taking krill oil for the omegas and it’s 1. hard to find any that doesn’t come in cow (or mystery) gelatin and 2. hard to actually take the things.

            My B12 is a tad easier because it tastes like candy and is fun to melt under the tongue, but I still don’t take it regularly.
