Noa,
> As for me, I became a vegetarian (lacto-ovo) way back in my early teens. In my late twenties, I started having yearly episodes of strong fish cravings. I would indulge these and then the cravings would go away. But the craving would return eventually and soon I discovered I seemed to really 'need' fish, or at least it felt like my body was saying I needed fish. So, in my early thirties, I just decided to become a fish eater. In light of how well I've responded to the fish oil in the past 6 months, I am convinced I read my cravings correctly.
I find this very interesting. I believe that my body craves the things it needs too. If you feel you need fish, then eat fish. I have cravings for nuts and grains. I eat nuts and grains.
Since I am currently a vegan I use supplements to round out my diet so that I'm sure that I take care of any deficiency my already careful diet might give me.
Everyone, Healthy eating!
