He's a textbook of example of what every diet ideologue does.
It's called cherry picking "research" that reaffirms his views - in a field which is barely scientific to begin with.
He didn't arrive at a plant-based diet from "first principles", such as trying to derive it from estimated average requirements for all the various vitamins and minerals, (accounting for bioavailability from various sources).
Because if you do that, you'd have fish, eggs and animal organs as top contenders in bioavailabilty and nutritional density
(meaning you can hit most of your RDAs without eating metric ton of food)
He is a not a scientist, he vegan ideologue first and foremost, he even sounds like a Christian preacher in his videos.
If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it probably is a duck.
I'm not interested in dietary advice from anyone who's already made up his mind and is ideologically opposed to animal products.
