She started having problems with her period. Now my daughter got a call from the school counsellor to say she is depressed and they need to see a psychiatrist.
Well, they think she needs medication. You seem sensible, so I want to ask you if you think this no-meat and no-milk diet can be causing all these health problems, and is there anything we can do other than jumping to depression medications?
A vegan diet - which is vegetarian but without dairy and eggs - is one of the most unhealthy diets in my professional opinion. This is not because I have any personal bias against it, but because I have observed over and over again that it makes people ill. Typically the problems start with a lack of appetite, energy, and strength, and escalate over time to chronic fatigue, dental problems, muscle wasting, premature aging, digestive issues, skin conditions, and very often a mental-health issue: anxiety, panic, mood swings, depression, or eating disorders which are actually a very complex mental-health issue.
But when I treat clients in this downward spiral I frequently see the common denominator is a vegan diet. This is not only because a vegan diet removes some of the foods that are most nutritionally dense - namely meat, dairy, and eggs - but because it usually replaces them with grains and vegetable oils - which provide cheap, nutritionally-empty calories, and invariably create a lot of inflammation and health problems.

But the type of vegan diet a person follows can differ substantially in terms of what foods they actually eat. For example, a vegan diet can be highly nutritious with lots of fresh vegetables and fruit, beans and pulses for extra protein, and nuts and seeds for healthy fats.
For others, it may solely contain white pasta, tomato sauce and bread with margarine. These differences might affect diet quality such as consuming higher saturated fat content , which can have different health implications. New large studies would need to both look at the nutritional quality of different vegan diets, and their potential health impacts. To avoid nutritional deficiencies while following vegan diets, supplementation with vitamins and minerals such as iron or vitamin B12 has been recommended.
This can be achieved through a daily pill or fortified foods. Fortification can vary by product or brand, change over time, and regulations — if they exist — can vary in different parts of the world.
A vegan diet may be better than the typical low-fat diet recommended by the mainstream nutrition organizations, but pretty much any diet fits that description. Bottom line : Despite all the propaganda, there isn't any evidence that vegan diets are any better than other diets.
Most of the studies are observational in nature. Some vegan proponents aren't very honest when they try to convince others of the virtues of the vegan diet. Despite all the propaganda, there really isn't any evidence that meat, eggs , or animal-derived nutrients like saturated fat and cholesterol cause harm. People who promote vegan diets should be more honest and not use scare tactics and lies to make people feel guilty about eating animal foods, which are perfectly healthy if unprocessed and naturally fed.
I'd also like to briefly mention The China Study… which is the holy bible of veganism and apparently "proves" that vegan diets are the way to go. This was an observational study performed by a scientist who was madly in love with his theories. He cherry picked the data from the study to support his conclusions and ignored the data that didn't fit. Also… a new study from China came out very recently, directly contradicting the findings of the China study.
According to this study, men eating red meat had a lower risk of cardiovascular disease and women eating red meat had a lower risk of cancer Bottom line : Vegan proponents often use fear mongering and scare tactics in order to convince people not to eat animal foods. They frequently cite The China Study as evidence, which has been thoroughly debunked.
If you look at vegan message boards, you will quickly find stories of people who have seen amazing health benefits on a vegan diet. But it's important to keep in mind that this is anecdotal evidence , which isn't science. Personally, I think that vegan diets can have health benefits for a lot of people… at least in the short term, before the nutrient deficiencies kick in which can be partly circumvented by supplementation.
Vegan diets don't just recommend that people avoid animal foods. They also recommend that people avoid added sugars , refined carbohydrates, processed vegetable oils and trans fats. Then they suggest that people stop smoking and start exercising. There are so many confounders here that can easily explain all the beneficial effects.
These are extremely unhealthy foods , that's something the vegans and I agree on. I personally think that avoiding these foods is what is causing the apparent benefits. Bottom line : Vegan diets also recommend that people shun added sugar, refined carbohydrates, vegetable oils and trans fats. This is probably the reason for any health benefits, not the removal of unprocessed animal foods.
We evolved this way.
