I have not heard of that documentary. For one, it's pretty bad for the environment. I hope you can agree with me that there is a consensus on this. From land use to transportation, to every other part of the supply chain (antibiotics, methane emissions, manure). Downsizing the meat industry would do quite a bit for the environment. Secondly, meat is more expensive than plant-based products, generally. It also spoils faster, and I wouldn't eat spoiled meat, as opposed to spoiled vegetables. Quality control is way more important as to avoid parasites, prions, etc. Let's skip animal suffering. I suppose you are getting to the last point, health benefits? I have little data on this myself, and health comes from such a maze of interactions that I don't find it surprising experts disagree, especially if you throw in various lobbies. Moreover, the answer likely depends on a person's ethnicity. However, there seems to be plenty of evidence that (a) excessive meat (or rich foods) intake is bad for your health, (b) eating a variety of products is better, (c) eating some meat, or substitutes, is required for a healthy diet. The uncertainty seems to be on what exactly constitutes "too much" meat. I don't think "all around" was meant to encompass anything else; are you thinking of something else specifically?
