So U think Vegan is healthy?

[Aractus]

You mention that they are starting to learn more about nutrition in medical studies that is fantastic, which state is this? I know they 'touch' upon nutrition but are not really focused on for apparent reasons

I'm in Australia, what I meant was that people such as Harvey are the reason that we are learning about dietary deficiencies and the effects they can have on health - not him specifically. If I ask 100 random people on the street what the effects of low cholesterol are I can bet you my life savings that less than 10% would have any clue, yet nearly 100% would know at least some of the effects of high cholesterol. 30 Banana a Day tells people that they don't need to eat any cholesterol because the body makes it - very dangerous advice.

And the other thing I mean is that it's only now that we're beginning to learn about the effects of long-term veganism. It's true that many people find that a vegan diet is helpful for their health, however long term it's a different story. Alex Jamieson - a qualified nutritionist who specializes in vegan diets - found that after 10 or 11 years on her vegan diet (which was helpful for her at the start) was unsustainable for her health. Her periods were happening fortnightly - and as a qualified nutritionist who's an expert on veganism was unable to heal on vegan diet. She now eats meat - albeit not very much meat, but enough that she feels is right for her.
