Drop meat, fish, eggs, dairy products...what's left? Vegan cuisine?

Not that it wasn't obvious, but you should still disclose your bias.

Good luck with your vegan diet. I hope that beans and veggies can provide for all your nutrition needs. But better keep going to those regular doctor checkups.

> Vegan cuisine?

Yes. Let's call it plant-based. As veganism is much broad and often based on ethics. Where plant-based diets mostly based on scientific findings. Especially the whole-plant (WFPB) diet seems to have a lot of scientific backing in being the healthiest diet.

Thanks. But this is more then well proven by studies now. And I did my checkups, only D and B12 were deficient (now fixed). I never felt healthier. See "the china study" and "the adventist studies". Also the nutritionfacts.org website/YTchannel and MicTheVegan will give you a good overview of the scientific evidence behind the health benefits of a whole plant-based diet.

We're all biased. I'm not paid say this, or paid by big-broccolli, thus no conflict of interest :)
