No, it would be useful for vegans to discuss how to eat a healthy vegan
diet. I've shown that I can raise superior children, and as an AARP
member can outperform most folks half my age. I'd be glad to go into

A vegan diet can easily be unhealthy. It's easier to eat a healthy
vegetarian diet than a typical American meat oriented, junk food diet.

It's not hard at all. Avoid junk food and empty calories. Know what you
are eating.
