Supplements are a scam industry and you should not be advising anyone to waste their time and money on supplements. https://arstechnica.com/science/2018/02/sup

  With a vegan diet, you need vitamin B12 supplements. From the linked article: > Overall, multivitamins are not recommended for the generally healthy. There’s just no clear evidence to prove that they have any benefit. A 2013 analysis of 27 trials involving more than 400,000 people concluded that there was no clear evidence that they reduce cardiovascular disease, cancer risks, or reduce all-cause mortality. This makes no sense. You have a vegan diet to reduce cardiovascular disease, cancer risks, or reduce all-cause mortality. You take vitamin supplements to prevent potential deficiencies. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_d1Ca6SsKfE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_d1Ca6SsKfE http://www.who.int/features/qa/cancer-red-meat/en/ http://www.who.int/features/qa/cancer-red-meat/en/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/m/pubmed/19562864/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/m/pubmed/19562864/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/m/pubmed/27886704/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/m/pubmed/27886704/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/m/pubmed/21139125/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/m/pubmed/21139125/ The need for vitamins and essential fatty acids is scientifically proven.
