Tab. 1: Forms of vegetarianism resp. vegetarian oriented diets (mod. from: [4])
Vitamin D Some mushrooms (e.g. common mushrooms, A unique characteristic of vitamin D is that it cannot only be obtained from food, but can also be
chanterelles), foods fortified with vitamin D synthesised by the human body itself if the skin is exposed to sunlight (UVB) [30].
Vitamin B12 Foods fortified with vitamin B12 • If fortified foods are strictly excluded in a vegan diet, hardly any vitamin B12 is consumed.
• As a result of bacterial fermentation, plant-based foods, such as sauerkraut, may contain
traces of vitamin B12. However, it is unclear whether this form of vitamin B12 can be utilised
in the human body. Moreover, the levels are so low that adequate intake is not possible
[2].
• Shiitake mushrooms contain vitamin B12, although the quantities may vary greatly [97].
Sea algae such as nori may also contain vitamin B12. Attention must then be paid to the
declared moderate content of iodine. However, these foods are unsuited to be the sole
source of vitamin B12, as the bioavailability is unclear resp. the vitamin B12 is in an inactive
form [97–102].
• Spirulina and other products with cyanobacteria marketed as natural sources of vitamin B12
for persons adhering to a vegan diet contain no cobalamin in a form that is active in the
human body and are therefore unsuited for fulfilling requirements [102].
• Vegans cannot ensure their supply of vitamin B12 with conventional foods, including
fermented foods. An adequate supply of vitamin B12 can only be ensured by taking a
vitamin B12 supplement [32, 33].
Iron legumes, oil seeds, nuts, whole-grain cereals • Simultaneous consumption of foods rich in vitamin C or other organic acids improves
and various types of vegetable (e.g. spinach, iron bioavailability [2].
black salsify) • Substances such as phytates and polyphenols (e.g. in tea and coffee) may reduce iron
absorption [2, 103]. Black tea and coffee should not be drunk directly before, during or
after meals of high iron content.
• As generally recommended, it is particularly important that pregnant women and lacta-
ting women should take an iron supplement if they are known to suffer from iron de-
ficiency.
Iodine • Iodinated and fluoridated table salt as well as • The Federal Institute for Risk Assessment considers that dried algal products of iodine con-

algae of moderate iodine content, e.g. nori • As generally recommended, it is particularly important that pregnant women and lactating
women should take iodine supplements, after consulting a physician and considering their
individual iodine intake.
Zinc Whole-grain, legumes, oil seeds, nuts Preparation procedures such as sour dough fermentation and germination improve bio-
availability [2].
