Orange blood?: I do not know why your blood is orange. You might be anemic. As having 0 energy, your almost vegan diet should include veggie that give you complete protein with the right amino acids. Leafy greens and whole grain are a good source of iron. Veggies with a lot of beta carotene can make your skin look orange and is not a cause for concern. See your doctor to check for anemia.
