    I don’t have a problem with medication/supplements. I personally don’t have a problem with popping a pill once in a while instead of a factory farmed animal taking an injection on my behalf once in a while.

      Hard to argue with that. But from the point of view of convincing others, I do worry about the optics of a diet that requires what looks like a medical supplement.

      Personally this is my red line and why I won’t (for now) go completely vegan (I eat eggs). But the yeast approach strikes me as the obvious way of sort-of squaring the circle - i.e. having a diet that consists only of actual food that occurs in nature.

      Anyway, this is just pontification in the name of debate. I know that’s a risky proposition in this forum but I’m doing it anyway! Absolutely not a criticism of you or veganism, which I respect very much.
