@jayjoseph22 Adaptation to veganism is by now quite well understood to be related to a certain genetic mutation that affects LCPUFA synthesis. So yes, if people choose vegetarianism/veganism based on what makes them feel well, you would expect that. https:

If people are confused by why I put so much effort into algae cultivation... hunters (including sea peoples) obtain much of their fatty acids from other animals which either have these plant metabolism genes or consume algae which provides the fatty acids
