Jeg tror at du blomstrer op på denne veganske 80-10-10 kost fordi din krop kan omsider fordøje - med de fordøjelsesenzymer den har til rådighed - den mad du spiser. Jeg kan godt forstå at du er vildt begejstret - hvem ville ikke være det? Hvis du gerne vil fortsætte med denne kost livet ud - regner jeg med at din vejleder kan rådgive dig med sigte på at tilpasse denne diæt til en stigende alder. Ellers risikerer du at udvikle kroniske mangler af bestemte aminosyrer, jern, B12-vitamin og bestemte fedtsyrer, som vegan-80-10-10 ikke selv indeholder "råstoffer" til.
The key to nutrition is digestion. If the body does not digest food properly than the body is incapable of absorbing the nutrients needed to sustain life. If the body doesn’t receive the proper nutrients then the body is placed under stress which forces the body to adapt to its new conditions which can lead to disease under prolonged stress. (...)

All natural and raw foods contain enzymes. Those enzymes are released through chewing food thoroughly, which allow the body to absorb fats, proteins, carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals. But enzymes are destroyed through the cooking process and many processed foods have their enzymes and vitamins removed to extend shelf life. In many processed foods, the vitamins are replaced but the enzymes are left out. It is a major stress to our body’s digestive system when we eat foods that are lacking in enzymes."
