You always get nutcases that go to the extreme.
Most of the vegan are very healthy.

So what that most vegans are healthy? What does that prove? Most people who live in a developed country are healthy. Most elderly people are healthy are free from debilitating disease. Only in the last 2-3 years of your life as an elderly person would you normally expect to have a serious debilitating condition.

You haven't considering what the modern medical knowledge can do to prevent early death.
It remind me when in the 70's hippies instead of getting rid of old jeans they used to patch them up.
The same things happen these days in the hospitals.
Being healthy means not getting diseases in the first place not getting them and then having to ask the doctors to sort it out so to prevent early death.

A Peta demonstration in London show that the extreme is not the norm.

Quoting peta when you claim that "extreme is not the norm"? I think it is extreme to be more concerned about animal welfare than about human health.........

In this case when you are concern about animal welfare you strike two winner with one shot.
By not eating meat you are healthier and your consciousness expand easier.

..................and I think it's extreme to ignore the peer-review evidence from experts, the health advice of the overwhelming majority of qualified dieticians and physicians, and believe that veganisim is "healthier" than a diet that includes all the five food groups.

If the so called experts would have a clue about what is good and bad for us the hospitals would be almost empty.
