No. Take this from someone whose father has a Ph.D in biophysics and researches cures. This ain't one of them.

Maybe

Man's digestion is closest to fruit and leaf eaters like chimps and apes.
Again, no. Chimps and apes, for the record, are omnivores.

No/maybe. I'll concede most cows used to produce milk probably don't live very happy lives.

You'll probably feel hungry, since most anthropologists will tell you that the reason we were able to leave the trees, while our ape-cousins were not, is because our sub-species discovered fire and implemented it to speed up the absorption of nutrients, thereby reducing the need for complex digestive tracts and redirecting the gained energy to our brains...

I can respect vegetarianism/veganism for moral arguments as a lover of animals, since my dad is one of those (vegetarian), but even he'll tell you that veganism for health reasons is a crock of crap.
