DNA and the Vegan Diet

DNA, short for deoxyribonucleic acid, is a complex molecule that contains the genetic blueprint for the development, functioning, growth, and reproduction of all known living organisms and many viruses. While naturally present in all living cells, DNA is not typically added as an ingredient in foods. However, it may be used in certain supplements, medications, and cosmetic products for specific purposes.
