Please post a typical day's diet so I have some concept of what you are eating. Simply being vegan does not equate to healthy. The diet needs to be high in veggies, fruits, nuts/seeds/avocados and legumes for optimum health.

Also, it is good you are taking a B-12. Are you also taking something to ensure adequate DHA and Vitamin D? DHA is often the missing ingredient for vegans who don't feel quite right.

Remember, farm animals are fed products fortified with B-12 -- so whether you get it directly from a supplement, or from an animal who was fed fortified B-12, you are still getting it from supplemental form. I would prefer to get it direct rather than second-hand.

Best,
joey
