Science called and wanted me to remind you that you are an omnivore.
Anatomically, genetically, evolutionarily. You are an omnivore, with the special skill of being able to cook your food. And, being an omnivore, that means you are able to survive by eating almost anywhere on the plant/animal spectrum.
I’m not for or against any particular diet, but I do think that humans should mostly eat food that looks like actual food. Especially those who are trying to improve their health.
I’m also pretty sure that, on average, humans should be able to thrive eating both plant and animal foods, and that a sustainable agriculture system needs both as well.
I’ve seen people both succeed and fail on pretty much every popular diet. If you’re a healthy carnivore, or whole foods plant based, that’s great! But the fact that you do well eating one specific way only tells me something interesting about you, and almost nothing about how humans as a whole should eat.
Discussions about nutrition have become a spectator sport, arbitrated by those who benefit from creating something entertaining. It is not balanced or educational. The real moral of the story is that the vast majority of nutritional science is nonsense, and literally anybody can support their own compelling narrative.
Find a way of eating that supports your health and aligns with your personal beliefs. Find a group of people that support you, aka your “tribe”. That’s incredibly important. But fighting the other side helps almost nobody.
