Al vegans end up at least adding fish back to their diet whether they are willing to admit that is a different story.
And red meat is not bad for you as long as it's not factory farmed and as long as it isn't grilled/overcooked.
A grass fed piece of beef or lamb has more healthy omega-3 fats in it than a piece of wild salmon.
If anything avoid the high omega-6 meats like chicken. And always avoid seed oils like canola. It's the worst.
