I don't disagree with anything you say, but that in no way detracts from my opinion in my post you are responding to.

The point of Mr. Stockwell's post was a comparison of pancreatic cancer risk between a vegan diet and a non-vegan diet. In that comparison a vegan diet is clearly less risky than a non-vegan diet.

There is plenty of junk vegan food. I know it well! But all things being equal (fresh, non-processed food) a vegan diet is healthier unless you have some underlying health issues and/or conditions (which happens more often than many people believe).
