<<Anyway, the idea that the beneficial effects of vegetables are due to plant defenses isn't an unusual idea The beneficial effects of plant-based diets (according to Sinclair, podcasts) is due to lower activation of mTor by plant protein vs. animal protein (also apart from various beneficial plant fibers, flavonols and polyphenols). Animal protein activates mTor most highly, and it is the inhibition of mTor (after main development) that correlates most robustly with healthspan.
