Bruises

does any one find that they bruise more easily now than before they went veg? I play rugby and football and I always got bruised but now I seem to bruise when people just bump into me.

 

I don't bruise at all...maybe I'm just not active enough.

 

that sounds like you are maybe a bit aneamic...low in iron...have you had a blood test to check with your doctor?

 

No I havent, perhaps ill make an appoiment or just take soem iron pills or some thing

 

No. I think it could be b12 deficiancy though.

 

i don't eat met and I bruise very easily

 

I suggest u get more active or something. I ain't trying to tell you how you live your life but really, bruising, what are you a clutz. I fell off my scooter the other day going 40mph and I recovered very quickly. That has something to do with a good vegetarian diet for sure. Also in different stages of life the body is proned to bruise differently, like when your a infant and when your elderly.

 

She does rugby and soccer...

 

I dont play soccer I play american football, and I run just about every day in the spring summer and fall and in the wonter when its too cold to run i go to the gym

 

Really? Sorry!

But rugby and football? Isn't it *almost* the same thing? (besides the fact that you don't wear pads in rugby)

I was thinking that you could've been British! And british persons sure seem to love 'footboll'! ^^;

 

its ok there arnt really the same at all rugby is no stop and football you stop every like 20 seconds, and I play rugby with girls and football with boys
