Think about it...if we only ate the seed-bearing fruit of plants (which would include grain heads, seeds, nuts, etc.) - which are destined to be shed from tplants - there would be no destruction of the plant being itself. I think (I have done absolutely no research - I'm just guessing) that such a diet, when controlled properly with knowledge of nutritional compatibilities, could be nutritionally complete. The diet could be supplemented, for you lactovegegies, by milk and milk products which can also be collected and produced without loss of life. Does anyone know of any nutritional gaps in such a diet? - Dan Pellegrino
