Humans evolved as omnivores i.e with the biological ability to eat and gain adequate nutrition from a whole range of food sources / types depending on what was available, although I wouldnt personally include genetically / chemically adulterated or modified foods in that analysis.

I find all dietery approaches that say “ just eat x in order to be healthy“ and which thereby exclude whole food groups to be equally mad - whether x be meat, grapefruits, vegetables, bananas or chemical sludge. Restricting food groups for ethical reasons is different and usually comes with some health challenges that require more planning to ensure sound overall nutrition. Similarly the range of foods eaten within a particular category may be constrained by health conditions ( as with higher carb fruits and vegetables for diabetics) but that doesnt mean excluding an entire food group
