I have to agree with Grant, this is f***ing funny. How brainwashed could you possibly be to think our digestive system is designed for meat, lmfao. I'll break some of it down for you.
- carnivores have jaws that are designed for shearing with no lateral movement. Humans have jaws that move laterally. Why? This design is for grinding up plant matter.
- Carnivores have sharp teeth designed to tear meat. Most human teeth are fairly flat, again to grind up plant matter.
- carnivores have very short intestinal tracts. This is to avoid the possibility of food rotting in their guts. Herbivores have long digestive tracts with the purpose of extracting as much sustenance from fruits and leaves as possible. Guess which one humans possess? This is also a big reason why a lot of red meat can cause cancer. We aren't designed to eat it and it can rot in the intestines, causing cell degradation.
- carnivore saliva is very acidic. Human saliva is alkaline.
Everything about us screams herbivore. However, I agree with Joe Rogan's take that eating meat is what got us to our current state of being. Omnivores in nature (bears, raccoons, lizards) actually share most traits with carnivores.
