I recommend a healthy diet, which someone can follow & be a vegan/vegetarian but being a vegan/ vegetarian is not 100% required nor have I ever inferred or said otherwise.
Most vegan/vegetarians follow unhealthy diets & so to not see a benefit is not a surprise.
In Health,

All of them (not many or most) have HORRIBLE diets. They eat junk food, high fat faux meats and lots of oil in every meal. They are not vegan at this point in their lives for the health benefit.
