Summary
A person with ME/CFS said they went vegan some years before 2018 and that nearly every symptom got better, leaving them generally healthier with more energy. They also ate low and diverse carbohydrate and high and diverse protein. They called the change still way better than waiting for the condition to heal and doing nothing.
