I am also a vegetarian. I do eat eggs and dairy, and since my concussion, I have been trying to eat more nuts like almonds and walnuts. For my supplements, I take

B-Complex 100
Vitamin D3 (2000 IU)
MegaFoods Blood Builder: 15 mg Vitamin C, 30 mcg B12, 400 mcg Folate, 26 mg Iron
Acetyl-l-carnitine 500 mg
Algal DHA (900 mg) - this has the same nutrients as fish oil but comes from algae instead of fish

These help supply some of the nutrition that others may get from meat products.
