Reality Check: 5 Risks of Raw Vegan Diet
“But on your road to good health, the raw vegan diet would likely be a U-turn. If you are already vegan or vegetarian, you have nothing to gain and much to lose by going totally or even mostly raw. Even doctors who prescribe and live by a vegan diet caution their patients against attempting a raw diet.”

While that scenario is unlikely, the research indicates how much could be gained if meat lovers the world over replaced their steaks, burgers and other carnivore selections with more eco-friendly vegan fare.”
