    Vegan, on the other hand, excludes plenty of foods that are common sources of essential nutrients and especially protein.

    Like what??? Seriously, except for B12 theres nothing a vegan diet doesnt have.
    Pistachios are a full protein. Lentils Peas and Veggies make full proteins. What are you on about?

      I think they mean if you were just to take your usual diet and remove certain items so as to make your diet keto friendly, you might be fine. But if you took a usual meat/dairy/egg diet and just stopped eating those fortified foods (without finding a substitution for those nutrients), you would be worse off.

        Okay, i see what you mean. But i also see that that’s a dumb way to think about it? Who changes their diet by just not eating certain foods anymore without incorporating something else.
