Good question! I don't do anything except eat a healthy diet and nature does the rest. I did take antibiotics twice when I was young but never noticed any problem. Perhaps, as I suggested, it was my appendix that repopulated my gut. What else could it be? I didn't even know there was such a thing as probiotics back then.

I've know many people who were Vegans in the past.
I don't know anyone who still follows a Vegan diet - their doctors have all advised them otherwise.

1) It's not for the average person, so I'm not surprised.
2) There may be many people who practice veganism poorly because they were not in it for health in the first place.
3) If they were not in it primarily for health reasons (perhaps they were animal rights activists or anorexic etc.) their doctor may have advised otherwise.
I don't feel I have to defend all vegans anymore than you should have to defend all those who eat animal protein.
