Sheepskin and the Vegan Diet

Sheepskin refers to the skin of a sheep, often with the fleece still attached. It is primarily used in the manufacture of clothing, footwear, and accessories. In some cases, sheepskin byproducts can be found in non-food items like medications, supplements, and cosmetics, especially in the form of lanolin, which is derived from the wool of sheep. Lanolin is used for its moisturizing properties.
