So I just heard a brand new BS excuse not to be vegan! Move over protein! Let's talk about "Collagen Deficiency!"

So, elsewhere on the web, I learned that apparently collagen is a critical dietary component for health!

"Without it, you'll fall apart and die! So eat your BONE BROTH if you're going to go plant-based!"

"PLANTS DONT HAVE COLLAGEN! CHECKMATE VEGANS!"

When I asked the guy for any kind of peer-reviewed source to show that "collagen deficiency" is even a real thing, and that bone broth is an effective treatment, he just started insulting me. It made me extra sad, because he was apparently also a health-practitioner who aught to know better.
