Question

... has led many to wonder if being a vegan is both healthy

Answer 1

Answer: The quote comes at the beginning of the paragraph.

Explanation:

The quote came at the beginning of the paragraph and as a result gave no direction as to what it was explaining.

The quote is meant to give evidence that indeed Vegans can get their protein needs from vegan diets as opposed to what people believe making it a supporting statement.

As a Supporting statement therefore, it should come after the main point has been made that many opponents claim that Vegan diets are lacking in proteins.
