I am seriously considering becoming a vegan. I am already a vegetarian and I am now ready to cut out dairy and eggs as well, and think I want to increase the nuts in my diet. I want to make sure my protein intake is up to scratch. Some people warn me that nuts can have bad side effects. May I ask what these side effects are?
If you are actually allergic to nuts, they can even go into anaphylactic shock as a result of eating nuts! As you probably know, the result can even be death. I am sure that you would already know by now if you had a nut allergy though - most of these cases are diagnosed way before adulthood, at a very young age.
