Exclusion diets often have an effect because they exclude certain things, not necessarily because of the thing you do eat.

Most diet research is total rubbish so I prefer to look at actual groups of people that have been thriving for generations on various diets. An approach that Weston A. Price pioneered. None of the tribes he visited ate salads, raw cabbage or similar. Herbivores need 4 stomachs of bacteria at work to turn it into saturated fat they can actually use.

PS: We only closed down those activities and had others to fall back on.
