Veganism has gained popularity in the recent past. While a few follow vegan diets for health benefits, others turn vegan to prevent animal cruelty. However, many find vegan diets restrictive and lack a few essential nutrients.

Israetel, however, believes that vegan foods were much healthier in the 1990s. However, it is not the case of late, according to him. “When you look at the kinds of folks that vegans used to be in the 90s and early 2000s before the vegan junk food industry was born, they were some of the healthiest people on the planet,” he confessed in his video.

However, that is not the case now. He also assured in his video that the nutrients required by the body can come from a wide variety of food groups. Earlier, the bodybuilding coach discussed the negative effects of late-night snacking.
