@surftohealth88 You're right that B12 is important.
I started on B12 supplements (200 mcg/day) when we were eating a lot of vegan meals, due to a family member back living with us for a while. I'd never had to worry about B12 deficiency before as a vegetarian, because it's abundant in non-meat animal products like eggs and dairy, but there is no B12 in vegan or other 100% plant-based diet (unless added artificially, e.g. in nutritional yeast).
I know one vegan who was just dragging themself through every day until they started taking a B12 supplement. Things improved almost instantly.
