You're giving false information on this. Humans require nutrients that only come from meat and animal products. End of story. To live a vegan or vegetarian lifestyle, supplements are required if they want to remain "healthy" by the standards of actual doctors. If not they'll eventually have short term or permanent health problems ranging from muscle aches to dementia to different disorders. People should be eating meat and plants daily.  Science recommends that humans take in B12 daily which only comes from meat and animal products.... 

You are 100% incorrect. You do realise 32% of the worlds population is vegan or vegetarian?? cows milk/dairy products have been linked to cancer in over 1000's of different research. The cancer council is sponsored by the dairy industry, KFC list goes on. They literally send them truck loads of money to keep it hush hush. Do your own research. Clearly you are just followering orders from a doctor.....God bless you.

Perhaps some perspective could help

Long-lived people don’t avoid dairy foods, or soy or gluten. They don’t calculate the glycaemic index of their meals. They don’t ruminate on if the grains they are eating are stopping the absorption of other nutrients. They don’t take supplements. They eat. They move. They enjoy. They socially engage with their community in person. They live.

You can villify meat and dairy products all day, in the end it hasn't stopped earth's population explosion in the slightest.
