As a follower of the paleo diet (80% meat and 20% fruit) I expect to see both vegans and carnivores getting health problems and converging to a omnivorous whole foods diet over the next few years.

The majority of humans never ate 100% meat or 100% plant. Neither do animals. Cats sometimes eat grass, while cows sometimes eat rodents. My parents dog tries to eat fruit.

Plants provide beneficial compounds for your health (bromelain, antioxidants) and provide fibre for your gut bacteria (though their interactions are not well understood), while meat provides fat soluble vitamins, B vitamins, bioavailable protein and iron, and omega 3. If humans were cars - meat is the construction material and the fuel, while plants are the finishing paintworks, the fancy DVD player and fancy leather seats. Carnivores who have quit include Frank Tufano, Paul Saladino and Mikala Peterson. Vegans who have quit include Victoria Lissack, Alyse parker, Isabella Huang, and Rawvana.
