How are we all still alive? Whats the physiological effects of not having veggies in the diet?
Asking as a new parent who’s toddler used to eat everything, but now understands what “greens” are and actively denies any attempt to feed him veggies, even disguised. I swear his tongue has an alarm the instant any hidden veggie enters his mouth.
I also have a coworker who goes out of their way to not eat veggies. Not the heathiest, but he functions as well as I can see.

Surviving doesn’t mean living healthily. Sailors survived often on toast and water, and some of them even survived the worst effects of scurvy but there are nutrients that meat/wheat diet simply cannot provide (among other things VitaminC) or provides minimally and your body stumbles along the best it can.
