read deep nutrition, i can summarize sinple. eat all kinda meat, organ, muscle all of it, egg and milk also good. plants have evolved to protect themselves using chemicals so they're bad. seed oils are the root of all evil and illness. good nutrition of ancestors means better looks for next generation.

Eating “chemicals” designed to defend against nonhuman species isn’t going to be bad for you. That includes capsaicin and caffeine which are if anything healthy. There’s also the xenohormesis effect, if you believe in that, where small amounts of poison are good for your defenses.
I think they're talking about goitrogens.
Could be, but it sounded more like a naturalistic fallacy. Though lately people opposed to plants are upset about phytoestrogens turning them into women, which they don’t do, as far as I know.

Seed oils being bad may be correct, but I haven’t looked up specifically what’s supposedly bad about them.
