I have had a few people in a cooking forum I am a part of tell me its healthier to eat no meat with healthy food having a plant based food regimen while most of them were saying you need meat with healthy foods witch is healthier then having no meat at all.
They told me that I could live longer if I didn't eat bacon. I asked why I would want to.
You are an omnivore that is made of meat. As a result, eating some meat is healthy for you. Eating too much meat is bad and will probably shorten your life. Eating no meat is tricky as you can develop a variety of nutrient deficiencies, so you have to be much more careful about getting a balanced diet. This is doubly true if you're prone to certain deficiencies to begin with.
Overall, general lifestyle is more important. If you eat like you're working on a farm but sit behind a desk all day it'll end poorly regardless of what exactly you're eating.
