I don't want to be a vegan. I like meat too much (and eggs). I am quite satisfied that our existing laws protect animal welfare, and dislike seeing vegans interfering with farming. Having said
that, I don't understand why the suggestion of a vegan diet for health reasons has provoked such apparent anger among the low carbers. Vegans have about one third the risk of getting diabetes as omnivores and have less obesity and CVD. They must be doing something right. I find it very narrow minded of the low carbers to reject him out of hand. And what if he is trying to sell his book? Plenty of people do that. I shan't be reading it. I don't need a book to tell me which products are derived from animals. I am an adult -I can make my own choices. The poster kindly drew our attention to a diet which statistics show, reduces the incidence of diabetes. I don't think they should be criticised for that.
