All of that data is suspect. About 2 decades back I used to believe that that at lest some people can thrive without any animal products.

If you thought that a large number of experts (docs in this case) collectively cannot get it wrong , you are I have a different judgment to our fellow simians....

What data? I didn’t mention any data… and you didn’t you either btw.

I posted some examples negating your absolute statements.

Do some ppl need animal products because of medical reasons? Peobably.

But claiming that humans needs animal products to live and thrive is quite the statement. Several national health organisation say otherwise. They say a plant based diet can be healthy with careful planning. Are they wrong as well?

Some other anecdotal evidence… myself. I’m on a animal product free diet and did some blood work… my doc says I should continue doing whatever I’m doing.

Yes they are. If consensus is your only way you determine if a piece of information is correct, they you and I can never agree.

So you think various health organizations, like the NHS, Harvard Health, USDA, WHO etc are wrong?

If you ignore scientific evidence or medical consensus then yes I agree - no point continuing this discussion.

Yep. though a broken clock is also correct twice a day, not sure what proportion of advise they give is wrong.

Like I said - no point in continuing discussions if you just dismiss medical facts that don't fit your narrative.
