Meat is nutritionally necessary for human health.

the verdict
CONTESTED PARTIAL
Recorded sources
3 sources for · 1 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that meat is nutritionally necessary for human health?

Partly. Several reviews assert that meat is an essential part of human nutrition and supplies key nutrients such as protein, B12, iron and zinc, while one paper treats the belief that meat is nutritionally necessary as a misconception and links meat consumption to ill-health. None of the retrieved items demonstrates that meat is strictly necessary for human health; they offer partial, opposing perspectives.
