Correct Answer is B

Explanation

A. Lactose intolerance is more related to the absence of the enzyme lactase, commonly found in individuals who have a reduced ability to digest lactose (milk sugar), regardless of their dietary choices.
B. Vegan diets may lack sufficient iron intake as plant-based sources of iron (non-heme iron) are not as readily absorbed by the body compared to heme iron found in animal products. This can put vegans at a higher risk of iron deficiency.
C. Diabetes risk is influenced by various factors, including genetics and lifestyle, rather than specifically by following a vegan diet.
D. Pneumonia risk is not directly associated with following a vegan diet but can be influenced by overall health, immune function, and exposure to pathogens.
