<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> There has been a lot of posting off and on regarding vegan diets and I just have to put my two cents in on this one. The definition of a vegan (and I looked it up): an extreme vegetarian: one that consumes no animal food or dairy products. #1. According to the definition of a vegan, it would be impossible to feed ones young. We are mammals, animals, designed to nurse our young. So right there tells me a vegan diet would NOT seem a logical choice if we intended to survive beyond the first generation. #2. As if number one wasn't enough, as a celiac B12 is pretty darn important. My comments are not intended as a slam to anyone. I'm just voicing my opinion and I will summarize any and all comments whether I agree or not as long as they are related to health and celiac and not for example..."I eat vegan because I don't want to hurt animals", which has nothing AT ALL to do with eating healthy.
