RE: CURRENTLY VEGAN OR LOOKING TO MAKE THE JUMP? A VEGAN GUIDE TO OBTAINING IMPORTANT NUTRIENTS.
I noted that with respect to iron, eating cocoa with iron-containing foods is discouraged, and yet an iron-source you recommend is Dark Chocolate. I'm just curious if that is a mistake.
All in all, this has been a very informative post. I had no idea about creatine, and that makes some sense! Do you have any recommendations as-to where to purchase vegan-friendly creatine?
Thanks again for the awesome article!
Dark chocolate contains substantially less polyphenols (reduces iron intake) then say straight cocoa powder, the bio-availability is still affected, however the iron intake is still substantial.
Almost all store bought creatine's are synthetic, as a result are vegan, I recommend going to your local supplement store and clarifying with the staff when purchasing. Most supplement sites should also mention whether their product is vegan or not.
Thank you for taking the time to read and for the feedback :)
Thank you! I appreciate the clarification!
