While we are omnivores, I think the role people place on meat is greatly over stated. We where primarily plant eaters with the occasional meat as it was available. Yes there always exceptions to this rule, especially in fishing societies. Even as little as 100 years ago you can see just how little meat was in most peoples diets, it was there but not very often. As for the nutrients, the big one is the B vitamins which is funnily enough a result of us cleaning the food system too much! Most vegetables used to still have a bit of soil left on them and that was were the B vitamins come from, now everything is so clean we have stripped away that. My solution is Nooch and a bit more Vegemite than usual. ;) have no issues so far.
