Very good! There are also sickly pure vegetarians.
But we are *much* healthier in general than 'omnivores'.
The human body can deal with just about anything,
including, usually, the 700+ carcinogens found in the
typical American's environment. (EPA figures)
But it does best on plant foods, for the vast majority of people.
Learning to appreciate this new diet-style takes some
effort, but it is much like moving to a new country or
state or province: You miss the old one for a while,
and sometimes, but the new land is very interesting
too. And a better place, overall....
And it is *much* easier on an already imperiled
environment.
