You don't have to eat red meat to be healthy -- there are tons of perfectly healthy vegans and vegetarians out there. What you DO have to do is to eat other foods and/or take supplements to make up for what you're not getting (though it's always best to get your nutrients through food if you can manage it). It's not like red meat is the only food out there with iron! Go to Google and type in something like "foods high in iron" -- you can find lists. Poultry and seafood also have iron in them and they're much safer on your gut. Your body absorbs iron better if it's in meat rather than plant matter, so keep that in mind too. As for B12, there is actually more B12 in most seafood than there is in ground beef. Again, do a little research on Google -- you'd be surprised at what foods can be sources of what essential vitamins/minerals/whatnot.
