I was vegan for a while, but ate eggs and cheese.
It does consern me that people say "as long as I eat a varied veggie diet I am OK." My understanding is that one will not get specific
aminos if on does not consume specific beans.
I find far too many just start eating veggies and leave it there, and get malnurished. The dark circles, yellow cast to the skin, and anger follow.I used to drive a friend with brain cancer (GBM) to the whole foods store as she went macro-biotic. I noticed lots of sickly people shopping there and at first thought they too had cronic or terminal illnesses and were trying to eat healthy.
Nope, there were just trendy, stupid people who went vegan and had no clue as to nutrition.
