"We found that some of these nutrients, which can have implications in neurologic disorders, anemia, bone strength and other health concerns, can be deficient in poorly planned vegan diets.... Vegans may be at increased risk of deficiencies in vitamin B12, iron, calcium, vitamin D, omega-3 fatty acids and protein."

- voisin 6y ago“Poorly planned vegan diets” is key. Oreos are vegan. Being vegan doesn’t necessarily meant you eat a lot of fruit and vegetables and pulses and nuts and seeds. As a “vegan” I prefer the term Whole Food, Plant Based, which at least avoids the Oreos and other manufactured crap that suffers from the same deficiencies as non-vegan manufactured crap.
