I mostly just feel like it's a common sense issue too. We're made of meat, so it only makes sense that we would have to eat meat to be healthy.
I've written at length about it in other threads...

Essentially, the argument made by a lot of vegans/vegetarians is that all necessary nutrients can be found in plants. That's why they're found in animals... because animals eat the plants. But the thing is... the animals act as filters. The plant matter is processed through them, and the nutrients are processed... when we eat the meat, the nutrients are more 'available' to us. That's how I understand it. Everything is a filter. Our bodies are filters... light (and thus all matter) comes through our filter, the resulting 'image' is how we see the world. In the same token, we filter 'the outside world' through our bodies. Yin/yang, the truth is the same from both perspectives.
