You posted your email to the entire list, so I'm not sure if you
are addressing me personally, or the entire list. Obviously I speak only
for myself.

Many raw-fooders are strongly anti-supplement, some going so far as
to claim they are all harmful. (The more extreme position is typically
voiced by natural hygiene purists.)

Based on the scientific research available, I recommend that 
strict raw vegans take the following supplements: Vitamin B-12, DHA.
Depending on individual considerations, these other supplements may
be potentially of value IN SOME CASES:
taurine
zinc (fruitarians)
iodine (for the anti-salt crowd)
selenium (for vegans in Europe; if you eat food from California,
the soil there has loads of selenium).

The B-12 & DHA recommendation has the support of many vegan/vegetarians 
nutritionists. The remaining suggestions are  based on my research plus
observations of what rawfooders eat/don't eat.

Let me make it clear that I do not prescribe anything, and am merely 
an information source. I condemn those raw crazies (mostly natural
hygeinests in the mold of TC Fry) who try to function as "diet
doctors" -- using diet to cure disease. 

You should see a qualified health professional if you 
are sick. By definition, the word "qualified" next to the term
health professional, excludes everyone whose only training is
in natural hygiene.

Now to the real point: I don't sell anything; I don't endorse 
one brand of supplements over another; I don't promote supplements.
Yes, I suggest B-12 and DHA for strict vegans, but don't promote
one brand over another. (I do however criticize some supplements for being
too expensive: would you believe B-12 in spray-can form? Super-expensive;
tablets are much cheaper and proven effective.)

I am not interested in selling anything. My website has no banner ads,
no popups, no ads-rewritten to look like articles, or any of the other
common sales & marketing tricks. It is purely information, provided as a
public service.
