This is very interesting! I had no idea about this (but then I am
blessed with a generally strong constitution and health so I never had
to look into it) but a guy in my team at work went from being vegan for
many years to becoming a meat eater.

All of a sudden he said he has enormous amounts of energy and became
much more clear headed and high performing at work.

So I definitely do beleive that some people thrive on meat, and others
on vegetables.
