If I’m eating raw, am I missing out on certain nutrients, like iron, protein, or B12?
Plant foods are extremely plentiful in both protein and iron. It’s a common misconception that protein has to come from animal foods. In fact most Americans get too much protein in their daily diets. Dark leafy greens are very high in protein, iron, and have an abundance of many other vitamins and minerals. However, B12 is found naturally only in animal foods, so it should be supplemented.
