Every single macro or micro nutrient can be found in high concentration in some plant matter... It's a pain, but there's absolutely no scientific reason why you couldn't balance a diet off of plant matter. 

Some proteins/fats/minerals/vitamins are really hard to find in "plant matter" though.

...which ones

 

In general, the composition of plants is a lot more diverse than that of meat. Further off from what you need, individually, but you have all the spikes you need to balance it out, if you do the math. 

 

The "best" diet is one thats varied/balanced, I think.

 

If you're not measuring it, this is probably true.
