Actually a healthy vegan diet (that has plenty of veggies and fruits and beans legumes, nuts, seeds, and whole grains, with the addition of sea vegetables, like kelp, which are very high in minerals and vitamins, needs very little vitamin supplementation. One thing I definitely recommend however, is juicing. Freshly extracted organic carrot, kale, collard, parsley, or cabbage juices are the easiest way to get concentrated quantities of easiest to assimilate vitamins and minerals into the body. Blue green algae or kamut juice freeze dried or barley juice freeze dried supplements are an ideal way to supplement everything the body needs without pills, except maybe B-12. If people didn't scrub their veggies as much, then they would get more B12 from their food, but with the lack of hygiene in fertilizers, that can be a problem. There is no substitute for a nutritious diet., You need to eat healthy food to begin with, and then add supplements to make up for any nutrient deficiencies caused by depleted soil that crops are grown in. You can't eat white bread and make up for it with pills.
Because animal products are so high in protein, even cow's milk, they cause calcium deficiency, which I explained earlier. When it comes to animal milks, it is important to realize that there is a big difference in the protein concentration of various milks. Rat milk is the highest in protein, with 16%, whereas human milk is among the lowest, with 2.5% as I recall, cow's milk is around 11 or 12%. That's a pretty big difference, that should really tell you something. Each milk is designed to feed each specific species. In nature, it is extremely rare for any animal to suckle from another species, and all animals stop drinking milk upon leaving infancy. Human beings are the only species on the planet that drinks milk after infancy. That fact always bothered me. In fact, lactose deficiency is somewhat common in Asians and blacks, because human beings aren't designed to drink milk after infancy. It is also interesting that the countries with the highest milk consumption also have the highest rates of osteoporosis, according to the World Health Organization. Milk it does a body god, is absolutely true, if you are a baby cow. The milk producers can legally say that milk it does a body good, so long as they don't specify a human body good in the phrase, from what I hear. People have tried to sue the American Dairy council for this advertising, but basically, as long as they don't say a human body good, they can't be forced to stop the slogan.
Speaking of nutrient deficiency from diet, a lot of this is the result of cooking. Heat destroys the amino acid taurine, which is needed by dogs and cats for sight, but it also destroys L-carnitine, which is needed for healthy heart function. It is difficult for a dog or cat to live into its teens without it. L-carnitine is an expensive nutrient (about $30 for a 30 day supply for humans, and I have taken it, it's great stuff. It helps the brain, too. I have really found that it helps me do more complex thinking easier.) and because L-carnitine is so expensive, it isn't added back to most pet foods, except for at least one, Evolution vegan dog and cat food, how ironic. A vegetarian food which is said to be unhealthy for dogs and cats because plants lack nutrients that dogs and cats need actually has a nutrient that dogs and cats need that most meat based dog and cat foods DON'T have. But then,it seems to me that only someone who really cares about animals would pay the cost to put it in the food, and it is quite likely that only a vegan veterinarian would care enough about animals to do it. But I have digressed...
Speaking of getting your nutrients from animal products, be aware that even though liver has a lot of vitamins and minerals, by the same token, it ALSO has a LOT of toxins, because it filters out all of the wastes of the animals' system, which is why it is so high in vitamins and minerals in the first place. I won't even feed non organic liver to a cat, let alone condone feeding it to humans. Its the body's garbage filter. The liver is REALLY high in pesticide and other chemicals because it filters the blood.
Bacon is REALLY high in fat and sodium, and so it is a recipe for cardiovascular disease and high blood pressure. The Jews are wise indeed not to eat it. Salmon is meat, too, but it is far safer. For that matter, so is buffalo, lamb, turkey, beef, venison, and others. Bacon is just plain bad for you, and you don't need to be a vegetarian to know that.
