Then you haven't met many people on a plant based diet, who are the audience of the piece. I've scanned the article and it looks good to me, lots of references to scientific studies and discussion with researchers:

According to Psychology Today, roughly 75% of vegetarians eventually return to eating meat with 9 years being the average length of time of abstinence.
The most common reason former vegetarians cited as the reason they returned to meat was declining health. One vegetarian turned omnivore put it very succinctly:
"I'll take a dead cow over anemia any time."
Although that site again promotes the hundred year old and wildly outdated thinking of Price, perhaps that study has some merit. I could not find more than an abstract of it. Perhaps you can find the complete study?
But it is a bit tiresome to jump from topic to topic all the time. I have just refuted your claim "the reason is that there is no science that exists that can refute Weston Price's research"
Has this independent and peer-reviewed research that refutes Weston Price's research changed your mind?
My guess is that the Psychology Today article is only referring to Americans, is that right? I suspect the return to meat-eating for health reasons has something to do with, perhaps, not knowing quite how to balance nutritional intake without meat. Perhaps consultation with more Indians would help.
@A123, I'll try to read the link when I get a chance. but anyway, i doubt we'll come to any kind of conclusion... these debates have been going on for eons.
ps: charles manson thinks people who eat meat are evil. so that's pretty bad if charles manson looks down on you.
