To the Editor:
Re "Drug Makers Race to Cash In on Fight Against Fat" ("Obesity Inc." series, front page, April 3):
With all the information available these days about the benefits of vegetarian and vegan diets, I am surprised that people are still popping pills to lose weight.
I have been a vegan for eight years, and at 51 years old I am slim and extremely healthy.
A diet rich in vegetables, legumes, fruits and soy products is the way to go for weight loss. It is not a quick fix but a lifestyle change for the long run—guaranteed to keep off the weight.
