An author wants to support the claim that a vegetarian diet is healthier than a meat-based diet. Which evidence is relevant to the argument?

To support a claim about which diet is healthier, the evidence should come from a source qualified to discuss nutrition. A licensed dietician with years of experience can provide relevant information about the health effects of vegetarian and meat-based diets. The other choices focus on animal welfare, crime, farming practices, or convenience rather than comparing health effects.
