Sugar and fruit are not all bad and actually can benefit one's health.:

Even the "CarnivoreMD" himself Paul Saladino now recommends eating high sugar fruit for carbohydrates.:

Ancestral Diet and the Christian history of Veganism:

The true "ancestral diet" is raw vegan mostly fruitarian, not carnivore or omnivore as most supposedly "ancestral diet" promoters claim. Look up how God created humans to eat certain plants only and fruits mostly in the beginning as recorded in the Bible. It was not until after the Flood of Noah that God allowed humans to also eat animals to survive since the Flood wiped out the fruit trees and shifted the Earth's climate colder causing less available surface area warm enough to grow fruit trees. The Earth's climate has been returning to a warmer climate since the Flood. Humans and fruit trees were made for each other.

So humans were designed to cultivate fruits to keep them high in sugar and fat as they used to be before the Flood of Noah wiped them out. Humans have been cultivating high sugar and fat fruit for thousands of years with some examples of grape juice, wine, and olive oil as recorded in the Bible, paintings, and other ancient records and artifacts. Recent cultivations are merely restoring more fruit to their former high sugar and fat content.

The Bible seems to be talking about the spiritual aspects of eating animals not health effects. The Bible also says God originally created people to eat certain plants and only after the flood of Noah were we allowed to eat animals too. Then God restricted which animals we were allowed to eat when He gave Moses the law and commandments. It wasn't until after Jesus ascended that God told Peter and the other apostles that we were once again allowed to eat all animals without sinning against God.
The Bible also says some God fearing people abstained from animal foods at some times in their lives. Belteshazzar, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego (Hebrew names Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah) refused to eat the Babylonian king's meat and ate only plant foods for 10 days after which they were judged to have a healthier appearance than their peers. People who took the Nazarite Vow, of whom Samson was the most notable example, seemed to also abstain from meat since they vowed not to touch a dead carcass during their vow.
The Bible also says all people and animals will no longer eat animals or people when Jesus returns and restores the Earth.
So yes, we are spiritually allowed to eat meat, but health wise we might not benefit from it and God did not design humans to eat animals originally nor will He allow it once He returns again.

Regenerative Environmental/Agriculture:

We can do better than grass-fed animal foods for the environment by implementing permaculture food forests instead even in the desert without slaughtering animals.
