I have been mostly vegan but my son (2) has been craving ice and his stools smell sour, so i asked the Dr to run some tests on me as my son is still breastfeeding. It turns out i am borderline low in calcium and B12. Iron and Folic Acid were good (we eat alot of greens) and are mostly raw. I am surprised by the calcium as I drink 75ml of raw almond milk a day so maybe thats not a good enough source or maybe im not absorbing it (though its often in smoothies with fruit for Vit c). So I am adding raw milk and next week getting quails so I am hoping that will be the calcium and B12 sorted. Any other good sources please? Can anyone suggest why the ice craving and sour stools though? Dr didnt have much to say on that. Also could there be reasons Im not absorbing calcium?
