Vegans are often charged and convicted without being given a fair trial for the crime of not getting enough soy-free plant based protein. Hence, in ignorance many vegans crack under the pressure and give false confessions as to the nutritional efficacy of their plant based diet. Then, in solitude they begin to doubt whether or not they are in fact getting enough protein while appropriately balancing their soy intake.

Is Seitan REALLY Healthy
Seitan, otherwise known as vital wheat gluten, is a popular non-animal protein substitute for vegans. Seitan is made out of hydrated gluten by kneading moistened wheat flour to develop sticky strands of gluten protein. The dough is then rinsed to wash away all of the starch. The remaining sticky mass can then be seasoned, cooked and used as a meat substitute. You may also find it pre-made at your local grocer where it is already seasoned, cooked and ready to use as a meat substitute.
