"Researchers in the vegan study noted that strict vegan diets tend to lack key nutrients like iron, zinc, vitamin B12 and omega-3 fatty acids, which can lower the risk of heart-related diseases."

Am I not getting something? They're saying that zinc, vitamin B12 and omega-3's are bad (I wouldn't debate iron)?

So yay for vitamin deficiencies?

Or did they mean that those vitamins lower the risk of heart-related disease? It seems to be worded really weirdly.
