Are there beneficial compounds that are only found in meat? Sure. But that doesn't mean they're essential nor that they are superior to the other swathes of beneficial compounds available in any other foods.
It's a weak claim.
There are beneficial compounds unique to pretty much every food you can think of like avenanthramides in oats, curcumin in turmeric, and sulforaphane precursors unique to broccoli. It doesn't mean you need every last one of them to optimize your health.
And in some cases like fatty red meat, the juice isn't necessarily worth the squeeze.
