My mother-in-law has been having me drive her everywhere because she can not see good enough to drive lately. She is on one of these cult vegan diets.
I on the other hand, have 20/20 vision. I include red meat in my diet for great eyesight.
Science has proven that a vegan diet is not healthy. People who are vegans suffer from malnutrition. I just wish I knew what I could do to save my mother-in-law's eyesight before it is too late.

You automatically blame her diet before you even think of any other possibility......Hereditary? You must educate yourself before you assume!!!

In a nutshell the world revolves by one principle: eat or be eaten. But, we humans don't have to resort to being heartless savages, despite that so many people do indeed eat the full spectrum omnivore diet. I'm pretty sure that many animals would LIKE to be in a zoo these days. Maybe not the way they were a hundred years ago, no. It's like living at a resort. Hmmm, humans and their big brains? Hmmmm... Humans are just as stupid as everything else. Nothing special, lol. A tiny 1% of humans are genius about inventing technologies that make a huge life quality impact for the rest of the species. Let the vegans be. I think they're outnumbered by the rest.

how old is your mother in-law ? presumably she is 20+ years older than you
say you are 40 she is 60 pretty old
no science hasnt proved that vegans are unhealthy it HAS proved that if you arent careful it WILLbe unhalthy but scince when has meat been healthy If you eat right then a vegan diet is healthy
veganism isnt a cult ok
dont make you motherinlaw eat meat her choice even if its killing her which it isnt its her choice
like yours is to eat meat
anyway having bad eyesight to me isnt such a bad thing when you think about the animals you are saving even if it does matke you have bad eyesight but i dont think it does

You must eat a lot of rabbits since rabbits eat carrots and carrots are good for eyesight.
That statement makes as much sense as your ramblings.

I think you'll find that it's not necessarily the vegan diet that is causing her bad eyesight. I think you'll find that there are plenty of meat-eaters that have poor eyesight too. Regardless of whether one eats meat, or not, the important question is whether one is getting enough vitamins and minerals in their diet. Both meat-eaters and vegans can have vitamin/mineral deficiencies. Eating meat doesn't automatically equal a balanced diet. For vegans, the biggest concern is Vitamin B12, which is found mainly in meat, eggs, and dairy products. Iron may also be a concern, but their are plenty of non-animal sources of iron (although not absorbed as well as from animal sources). I suggest not trying to convince your mother-in-law to give up her vegan diet, but try to get her to re-analyse her vitamin/mineral intake. She could, for example, go to a doctor and just ask for her vitamin/mineral levels to be checked, because she is vegan. This will probably be done through a blood test. After this, the doctor will be able to find what vitamins she in low on, and what foods/supplements she should take.
Specifically, about the poor eyesight, it may well not be her diet. If you want to help her out, recommend she goes to an optometrist.

Well, maybe it's true, maybe it's not. But why don't you reccomend a vegetarian diet? It's healthier, if you really believe that. My friend is a vegetarian, in fact, the guy I like is a vegetarian, my principal is a vegetarian... it's pretty good.
