unfortunately there are alot of nonhealthy veg's out there. those are also the same people that will stop being veg in 6 months and talk shit about that lifestyle, giving us a bad name, when in fact they werent smart enough to pick the right foods themselvs.
There definitely isnt ANY nutrients found ONLY in meat.
