Challenges in the diagnosis of magnesium status

Who would fund such a study? There’s no money in it.

Food politics is awful and leads people to make terrible decisions. People develop health problems due to pursuing plant only diets (stuff like vitamin B deficiency, anemia, etc).

Many overall health issues can be helped by teaching people to eat smaller, balanced meals and less focus on extreme diets.

1-year vegan here, no new health issues to report. I supplement vitamins D and B12 and omega-3 fats.

There are people for whom a vegan diet works. You seem to be one of them. I tried it a few times, and no matter what I supplemented, I would lose weight rapidly. I understand that it can turn into a moral argument as well, except that I kill fewer animals than you to eat. Responsibly-grown meat is less detrimental to local ecosystems than vegetables.
