This underscores why vegans need to take nutritional supplements, especially Vitamin B12. Their food choices do not always contain all the vitamins and minerals to maintain a healthy body. This is especially true for growing children. Hope this girl improves health wise.

Vitamin pills are no guarantee that you will get all the missed vitamins you need. In fact many so called vitamin pills are useless, and in fact can be dangerous to your health. You should always try to eat a balanced diet that will provide you with all the vitamins, minerals and protein that you need without “pills” of any kind.
Many vitamin powers/compounds in pill form cannot be absorbed if the natural enzymes provided by fruits and vegetables, meat, fish and dairy which provide them naturally are not present.

You mean the stuff our bodies were designed to run on like animal protein and fat? My stock jab at vegantarianists is to ask them what those sharp pointy teeth in the front of their head are designed to do.
