I had the exact opposite experience. when I stopped eating meat I got worse. When I stopped eating vegetables I got better. I’m not saying you shouldn’t eat vegetables, I’m saying your claim isn’t as strong as you think it is and peoples gut issues are different.

A lot of people go all in on increasing dietary fiber and then experience gut issues and think it must be the plants when they didn't work into it slowly enough. It's like going to the gym and and feeling sore all over all the time or even getting injured and then concluding that going to the gym is bad when no one told you that you should start easy. In my opinion there's harm in how people fail to communicate how to get started on plant based diets when they miss important issues like this that can permanently put people off from it.

Am I misunderstanding or do you really not eat any vegetables at all, not even in a dish with meat?

Some friends of mine tried the carnivore diet for a while. From what I understood they did not eat meat dishes that included vegetables.
