To solve a problem, we need to get to the cause of it. It could be a bleeding disorder like low platelets or low haemoglobin. Or it could be a vitamin C deficiency. If it is none of these, then we need to check if the food we are eating is high in nutrients even if it is vegan. SHARAN recommends a whole food plant-based organic diet, with checking of levels of vitamins B12 and D and supplementation if required.
