Did someone on this thread say "ALL" people?
Before anyone criticizes someone for saying something, there should at least be someone who actually said it. If you can come up with the actual statement, we can then try to judge how it was intended.
My statement in the previous post was, "for MOST people veganism will accomplish this". The word "MOST" is different from saying "ALL". And, furthermore, it's nothing more than a suggestion. That's what the Medical And Health Disscussion Board is for. We discuss and make suggestions. As far as I know, no special qualifications are needed for discussion on this board.
Again I ask, "has anyone ever died attempting to become a vegan"?

First I didn't criticizen you for anything. My coment was not directed towards you or anything you said. If you feel guilty because what you were truely thinking is what I expressed I guess you should own those feeling. I asked you what makes you qualified to give advice. I think if you expect people to follow or listen to your advice, knowing what makes you qualified to give that advice is vital, otherwise you're dangerous and so is anyone else that gives advice on diet and health that isn't qualified to give it. I commented on the results of a study I'm in and for some reason you like to try and discredit anyone that isn't on the same path as you, that's so sad that you would be so insecure. I beleive there might be benefits to several different lifestyles including the vegan lifestyle.
But I stand by my statement that advice from unqualified people is dangerous!!
Any vegan moms PLEASE PLEASE don't breastfied your baby without consulting your doc and a lawyer!
