I am on Dr. Al Sears' e-mail list and I get an e-mail from him every day. I don't agree with him on everything but I agree with most things that he says. He has a similar philosophy to you. He believes that meat is healthy as long as it is grass-fed. He says the same thing as you about today's vegetables. He says they only contain maybe 10% of the vitamins that vegetables from 70 years ago had.

As you said, if a person is a 100% vegan they need to take vitamin B supplements That tells me that we're not meant to be 100% vegans. We should at least eat a little bit of fish.

I will read the link you provided.
Studies are usually influenced by the biases of the people conducting them. Don't get too caught up with them.

We should eat a lot of fish. The minerals from the ocean and the fats from certain types of seafood make it supremely valuable.
