I have a friend who is in his 40s, never eats veggies, and is one of the fastest bike racers in town. As much as people go on about veggies it isn't as if you can't live without them. The nutrients exist in other things too.

The macros maybe, but many of the nutrients don't. You can't get the health benefits with other foods.

Your friend is more likely to die at a younger age and have health problems when they are older.
