Vegan Prosody: Diet, Vocal Fold Inflammation, Resonance Quality, and the Ground State of Voice

Prosody is produced by vocal folds and shaped by resonant cavities — both directly affected by diet. S0_voice is the ground state of vocal production: minimal fold edema, maximal harmonic clarity, optimal resonance. A vegan diet reduces four major sources of vocal fold displacement: dairy-induced mucus coating, arachidonic acid inflammation, androgenic hormonal effects of meat, and acid reflux from animal protein.

Nasal breathing optimizes resonant cavity function. Vegan prosody is a structural condition of the voice.
