    they have published a version of this position continually since the early '90s at least. if you look at the position paper that’s linked, you can see the specifics. this position has expired and not been renewed for years. that is good reason to believe that it will not be renewed and will no longer be the position of the academy.

      Why do they continue to publish articles literally stating the same facts, word for word, from those old, published position statements?

      The science hasn’t changed. In fact, it’s only supported plant-based diets over the years.

      If you talk to a registered dietitian today, they will say the same thing. At least, that’s been my experience through working with several over the years.

      Either way, it doesn’t particularly matter to me. I’ve been vegan for over two decades and my doctor is quite happy with my health.
