I watched rawvana her videos occasionally for some recipe ideas.

My wife and I are not vegan, but vegetarian. It sounds like a bad idea to strictly follow a YouTuber without checking in with a nutriologist or doctor when you are full vegan though.

I would still watch her videos though even after this drama. She has some tasty recipes :)

MDs get very little instruction on nutrition FWIW, although they would be helpful in terms of longitudinal monitoring.

But perhaps they can refer you to the right person :) In any case, this might depend on the country as well. Where I'm from (Belgium) doctors have been helpful regarding nutrition as well. YMMV though

Ah yes, I'm showing my US bias :). I was just surprised to learn this from a (US) doctor friend!
