What's an argument against eating a plant-based diet?
assistant
An argument against eating a plant-based diet is that it can be difficult to get enough protein, vitamins and minerals. Plant-based diets are often lower in certain nutrients than animal-based diets, such as iron, zinc, vitamin B12, and omega-3 fatty acids. Eating a variety of plant-based foods may help to ensure adequate intake of these essential nutrients. Additionally, many people find that they have difficulty transitioning to a plant-based diet due to the lack of familiar flavors and textures, which can make it more challenging to maintain over time.
