    How do made good granola bars have such a high rda of nutrients when compared to another brand like kashi?

    For context, a 24gram bar has 20%rda of Vitamin A,C,E,B6, Thiamine etc. In contrast, Kashi was no way near. Especially the one I had eaten. I checked the ingredients for made good and all of them were mostly whole foods and no supplements. This left me a bit confused as to how it had such a good...

    What’s been a major health/physical benefit of being vegan that you didn’t expect?

    For me, other than it being an ethical way to coexist with other living creatures, a major benefit I’ve discovered since making the change is how I rarely if ever feel bloated from eating. My whole system seems to be running clean and it’s also given me a lot more energy throughout the day.

    I don’t understand the direction this sub has taken in the past months.

    Being a struggling vegan- one who tries to maintain the lifestyle out of love for animals and my own health, I find myself massively disappointed and dismayed at the volume of posts by obvious steroid users. I’m not judging them, or you if you use them. It just feels so counterintuitive to the...
