My partner is vegan, and it seems like there is nothing special one needs to do to stay healthy, just eat everything (vegan) in moderation, like veggies, legumes, fruits, nuts etc. Most processed products like oat milk, soy milk, impossible meat, beyond meat, daiya cheese are enriched with whatever supplements are needed already unless one is specifically susceptible to some deficiencies.
Sounds like you’re suggesting eating those processed, fortified foods? Lots of people avoid those or just don’t like them, so knowing they’re valuable is important information.
I suggest (well, my partner does) including those you like as a part of a diverse vegan diet. Oat milk is nominally processed and enriched, but it is not a central example of “processed foods” by any means. There are many vegan options that are enriched with vitamins and minerals to cover nearly everything that humans get from eggs, milk products and meats, most people can find something they like with a bit of trying. Of course, there are always those who are allergic, sensitive, unable to process well, or supertasters that need something special. I am not talking about these cases.
