Anyway the video is touching and educational, there is so many things the industry could do to reduce the suffering. |
Compassion is good. I think alot of people here are compassionate people.
Your right that vegans can be come malnourished, but so can meat eaters. There are lots of junk food meat eaters just as there are junk food vegans. Yeck, you can be a vegan if you only eat chips and fries. I think many people are proof that you don’t need meat or animals products to live well. You just have to find what you need. When i first went vegan, i had to experiment and see what i needed. What i found that makes me feel much better is to supplement calcium, all B vitamins especially B12, and omega 3 and omega 6s. Even tho i am a vegan, i still avoid, white flour, sugary foods etc.
I dont think the problem is being vegan, i think the issue is not finding how to be vegan and support yourself at the same time. As i said, takes some trial and error for figure out what works.
