I would advise not taking anyone seriously who advocates for an ideologically driven vegan diet and makes statements like
"There's nothing special about cows or pigs or chickens. Our bodies are so similar that we mostly use bacteria to digest meat, which is why you lose the ability to stomach it if you stop regularly eating flesh."
Let's start with the fact that the human stomach acid pH which you can feel free to Google. It's nothing like the other animals he's talking about. Our stomach acid is extremely acidic due to our early evolutionary history as carnivorous carrion eaters. He also parrots another myth which is that once you are vegan you lose the ability to digest meat. My father has been vegan for 20 years and I was vegan for 5 and was able to digest meat right away with no issues when I went back to meat. It's a myth repeated by vegan ideologues and is completely unfounded in science.
Do I think someone can be very healthy on a vegan diet? Yes. But the last people you should ever listen to are vegan ideologues. They already have an answer in mind and do nothing but cherry pick facts to support their chosen answer.
