How Ridiculous!  Eating non-Paleo puffs out my face like crazy.  Eating
Paleo I get my cheekbones
back, even before the weight loss.  Eating Paleo has caused my wedding
ring to become loose.
The actual fact is exactly the reverse of what this writer says..

I have seen some vegans whose faces are very shiny; they are not puffy
but look overly scrubbed
with high color.

Another exact reversal of the truth.  When eating vegetarian, I was sick
constantly.  And I have
vegan friends who have colds and viruses for 6 months at a time.  When I
went Paleo, I stopped
getting all these infections.  There are a multitude of people on this
list who have experienced the
same results.

Just another batch of propaganda by the militant vegans; no resemblance
to the truth.
