Genuinely curious I have been seeing some nutrition stuff that made me start questioning why I eat processed foods and junk food for pleasure and whats really in it for me other than dopamine boost with candies, for example. Now I’m wondering about what I’m asking in the title.

    Thankss :) though for carbohydrates theres banana, and avocados for fats and proteins, but as you pointed not enough I suppose then. sadly vitamin B12 would still be a problem though :/ how does it end up on animals by the way, do they produce like we (humans) can produce vitamin D?

      Yeah, that’s it: you can get some of that stuff from some fruits, but you’re looking at a lot of avocados!

      Bacteria synthesise B12 inside various animals. Even our gut flora synthesise it, but they do it too far down our digestive system to be useful!
