Vegan circles are full of bad science (and worse, pseudo science) and it makes us look really bad. We're so quick to accept any validating claims of veganism with literally no fact checking. Please for the love of seitan, don't take random articles at face value, dig a little deeper!

And I'll recommend that people read Bad Science by Ben Goldacre.

I'm not vegan, but awful science reporting is by no means limited to vegan circles. It's practically the default.
