With modern diet, vegan or otherwise, it's just good sense to take a multivitamin everyday. The difference between the daily dose and the deadly dose is night and day, so it can't harm.

    There were news stories in Australia last year about vitamin toxicity from taking daily supplements.

    B6 in this case. It does pay to be careful.

    its kinda funny but I was doing this rabbit hole search to see if I could identify a minimum of foods that are shelf stable and have everything you need. omega3's and vitamin C become sorta hard without just using a supplement and if your doing vitamin C supplement you might as well do a multivatamin which covers a lot of bases and lets you have just a few other things.
