    While he did a great job with the limited time he had, vegan diets can indeed be healthier than omnivorous diets and veganism should be supported for many reasons, his health claims are highly exaggerated.
    His exaggeration is unfortunate because overselling the effects of plant-based diets can create distrust of research that supports our transition away from animal agriculture.

    • @carothehonestpeanut
      @carothehonestpeanut 7 месяцев назад +3

      @VeggoFix 7 месяцев назад

      @@carothehonestpeanut There is no doubt that cutting out animal foods and replacing them with healthy, or even processed, vegan options has beneficial health effects in most people.
      Many people, however, will not experience such great benefits as he claims and then they might abandon veganism or even become anti-vegan.
      For instance, vegans are protected against several cancers, but not by the extent he claims. So now even some cancer cases amongst vegans become cases against veganism and makes people wary of the fact that a vegan diet is healthy in general because unfortunately many people have issues with nuance, unlike yourself.

    Most of agricultural products these days are loaded with chemicals, spays, genetically modified for size and looks, you can’t just assert they are healthier!!!
