Alternative to vegetables?

Question

I cannot stand vegetables and I haven't eaten them years, since I was I was about 2 years old. Are they any vitimin tablets that are alternative to vegetables?

Answer 1

You are right not to eat vegetables ... vegetables are not food - only food eats vegetables. I'm sure we didn't force our way to the top of the food chain only to eat vegetables after all!
You can get some multi vitamin things from SuperDrug if you are worried though - try the ones with extra vitamin C, they come in a little tub with an orange top.

Answer 2

I am a little bit concerned about some of the well-meaning advice given below, because I'm not sure that it's well-researched. Isolated vitamins are often NOT bio-available (readily absorbed by the body) and our bodies are made in a way that cause them to need vegetables to function. I also don't like veggies and my nurse practitioner recommended that I take a whole food supplement... NOT an isolated vitamin... I take something called Juice Plus which has 17 different fruits & vegetables in it and comes in capsules or "gummies". It has helped me so much. Visit http://www.juiceplus.com/+jr60515
if you want to learn more. I'd encourage you whatever you do to READ the RESEARCH on any product before beginning to take it, especially as a vegetable replacement.

Answer 3

As another respondent has said, green vegetables in addition to VitC provide other nutrients which help boost your immune system and protect against a range of cancers.
Have you considered all the different and imaginative ways vegetables can be presented eg in stir fries or casseroles?
However if you are a die-hard anti-veg person, I think you'll still be OK if you can get your 'five a day' from eating various fruits (tomatoes and cucumbers are fruits btw)

Answer 4

No vitamin will be equivalent to a well-balanced meal. Do try to eat something fresh and raw every day, like fruit, and at least eat salads for roughage. Vegetables have micronutrients that prolong life, anti-oxidants that boost immunity to cancer and infections, their fiber reduces cholesterol, etc. But if I can't talk you into it, take a very complete multi-vitamin every day, supplement with more Vitamin C, and a good anti-oxidant combination (ask at a health food store). You might also try Airborne every time you are out in a crowd. This is a vitamin/herbal mix that boosts the immune system and is a fizzy tablet you dissolve in water -- sweet and delicious!

Answer 5

Light Tasting Olive Oil

Answer 6

Yes...

Vitamin C Tablets.
And since they are water solible you can never take too much.

It helps with all your senses and makes your immune system stronger.

Fruits are healthy as well as vegetables, but if you arent going to eat them...at least eat the fruit.

Answer 7

Yes It is not as good as the fresh real thing. But it will help fullfill your nutritional needs. Ask your doctor to recommend one. Mine has recommended Centrum
(I hate veggie too. I only really like potatoes)

Answer 8

There are specific vitamins to adress this. Some are organic, some are for sensitive stomachs, etc...here's an example of one
