As a young adult went on a vegan/ vegetarian diet which did not solve his issues, he became really ill and decided he wanted to starve himself to death, he went out into the desert to die, either wolves or coyotes (don't remember which) brought him a rabbit for food which he ate raw....and he got better and ended up healing his body with the "primal Diet....raw food including raw meat. Since then he apparently has helped many people heal through their diet with his guidance.
There was clearly something he was missing, that was found in the raw meat. But that doesn't mean he couldn't have found it in a veg diet. Just because he didn't, doesn't mean he couldn't have.
A single case doth not conclusive make.

Undoubtedly it did, at the time, as the new 3D humans evolved, having been 2D animals hitherto.
The question NOW is:
As we evolve to 4D, what will help us NOW?

Think about the many millions of animals brutally killed every single day. 9 billion per year, in the US alone.
That's just the slaughter.
HERE is what is going on, to billions of animals, on a daily basis.

Do you really think this isn't holding us all back?

Most of us can. It might entail a bit of inconvenience at first, but we can.
...to the extent necessary for the individual metabolism

That's been addressed. If we eliminate the problem at its root - the meat industry - the bulk of it would be eliminated. The only way to eliminate the meat industry is to quit eating meat.

I honestly don't understand all this talk of lightening, when we know these atrocities are taking place, and there is something we can do about it.
Other atrocities take place that we can't control. We have no control over someone brutally murdering another person across the planet.
But this is something we CAN do something about.
