So, what supplements do I take as a vegan? Of course I take vitamin B12. Most B12 supplements are vegan so it's not hard to pick one. I prefer to take liquid over the vitamin supplement because it absorbs quicker. That's the only supplement you need as a vegan.
I personally also take vitamin D2 because I am inside most of the time. A lot of D vitamins come from sheep so you have to be careful. I also occasionally take zinc, vitamin C, and omega 3.
Fun fact! You can often find omega 3 supplements with both DHA and EPA which is what most people take fish oil for. By taking one of these instead you aren't harming another creature and that's pretty rad.
So yeah, the only thing vegans need to be sure they are taking is B12. As long as you are eating plenty of fruits and vegetables you're fine.
