Done that myself. It fixes a lot of problems: more energy, easier to stay full for longer on less food, the only “diet” I’ve ever tried that worked.
It’s strange that something so “unnatural” seems to be good for the body along a variety of dimensions. (It’s unnatural in the sense that animal products are expensive, and require a lot of biomass input, and so it’s weird to make them a dietary staple whereas most of the world lives on grains.)

It’s natural in the sense that it seems to be closer to the pre-agricultural diet of hunter gatherers which represents a much larger period of time in our evolutionary history than the relatively recent rise of agriculture. That’s the idea underlying the Paleolithic Diet which I’ve had a lot of success with.
