The interpretation as to what different Christian faith's consider defiling your body are usually sexual in nature.There are some that say that suicide is a sin against your own body.
Staying alive is what most humans have faced in the world before this last 100 years. Staying healthy was a perk if you had the means to persue it . Now staying healthy is a choice we can make.
I think of the quote as more spiritual than physical.
It comes directly from St. Paul's letter to Christians in Corinth about Prostitutes.
But I would guess that VPL would tie it into eating a pure, plant based diet. Just a guess.

Yes, for me it's a pure plant based vegan diet, for various reasons. But I'm not against someone being a vegetarian or even including some lean meat. There are vegetarians who eat some fish, they are called pescetarians. These different ways of eating can be done well or poorly, and I recommend doing them in the best possible way with the least amount of processed junk. It's up to the individual, I can't force anyone to do anything.
