We can't find evidence that holds up here. Proponents are reasoning from mechanism or analogy rather than direct human data, and the most credible skeptics raise objections we can't dismiss.
Not nutritionally sustainable without supplements
Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.
Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
I don't think humans can thrive doing that
I think that diet is going to be very detrimental to people long-term unless they are supplementing with tons of things due to nutrient and protein inadequacy and that it often turns into a nutritional nightmare for people a long term
I have major concerns about plant-based diets in terms of nutrient adequacy I just don't think that humans can get enough nutrients on this type of a diet nor can they get enough protein
long-term vegan diets are a nutritional nightmare for humans without massive amounts of supplementation because plant foods simply do not contain uh adequate nutrition for human beings that is very difficult to argue i feel very strongly about that
plant foods simply fail when it comes to optimal nutrition for humans over and over and over
we can't feed 7.9 billion people on the planet well with grains or plant-based foods there will be so many nutritional deficiencies there there's no caloric deficit for 7.9 billion people what there is is a micronutrient deficit
plant-based diet is a nightmare for nutrition you have to do so many foods that would never co-occur
