But non-animal proteins bio-accumulate less harmfull stuff (like lead) and contain more useful minerals. I hate doing the "the truth is in the middle" guy, but here, the correct diet is clearly in the middle, no?

i agree that plant proteins usually contain more beneficial minerals than meat, but that also certainly includes lead. whole plants and especially plant-based protein products contain lots of lead, but it's unclear if this is a huge problem
