Someone told me that you don't need to eat a single vegetable to be healthy, just eat protein and fat. They said they don't eat veggies AT ALL since they started a LCHF diet and that vegetables are unnecessary for humans to eat. Kinda confused here....yeah I get potatoes and such are starchy, but where do you get your vitamins from then if you're not eating some asparagus or spinach etc? So, discuss, are vegetables necessary on a keto diet (or any diet, for that matter) ? Why, or why not?

    I don't think my meat is fresh enough or of high enough quality to completely avoid veggies. I eat some but carbs are usually under 30-40g per day. I could probably get by as a carnivore, but I enjoy some veggies - they're good dip holders. ;)
