This article is about fats, so what is the relevance of your comment?
Anyway, did any of these people try reintroducing plants in their diet? If not, at most we can say that a change in diet caused these improvements. We cannot say that plants are somehow a contributor to disease.
In fact, I've heard the same anecdotes as yours, except the diet change was the exact opposit: People who stopped eating meat and saw incredible changes to their health. These anecdotes and yours have one thing in common: Change.
We have good evidence that the gut microbiome can change its composition very quickly, in the manner of days, based on food intake. It's possible that some part of the microbiota were reduced or boosted as a result of the radical shift in the diet, and that you'd see a similar effect if you went meat -> plants.
If you're a science-minded person, you could try introducing specific things you eliminated, one by one. That is the principle behind an elimination diet, after all. For example, add broccoli for a week and see what happens. If you get worse, maybe it is the plants.
If you stop eating plants and plant based food (eg. Cereals, baked stuff) you end up eating mostly animal fats and protein (and a bit of lactose if you do dairy) so the poster is related
We ended up here after years of trying other things, following scientific method. We've tried various plant based diets, and they did not work for us. Going to a non-plant diet was a radical change for us, having literally tried everything else.
In case you're interested, here's something to watch that will tie in what we're doing and the success we're having with the article.
