I hate to be disagreeable, but substitutions are never the same.
not in suplements, not vitamins, not pills. these are all chemical recreations of the actual vitamins, etc. Bottled vitamin c isn't the same vitamin c you get from eating an orange. For the most part, the level of these bottled vitamins far exceed any concentration that could ever be found in nature.
I could be wrong on that, but it's fun to act like something you read is absolutely true.
: A vegan or a veggie can get all the same nutrients and such you get from eating meat by taking iron and protein pills, bars, what have you.
