Why do we have enzymes in our blood that assist specifically in breaking down animal proteins, oils, and fats? We have a separate set for breaking down proteins, oils and fats from plants. And why don’t humans have a reaction to eating raw meat, like people who’re lactose intolerant can’t eat dairy because their ancestors weren’t acclimatized to it? Me and people I know have eaten raw meat quite a few times and it’s fine, and we’re quite fit and healthy and we stay that way. I know several people who have reached a ripe old age in full possession of their mental faculties who didn’t skimp on the meat either. The Japanese eat raw fish all the time, it’s part of the national cuisine. And I know of several European dishes that use raw meat as well.
And importantly, every society, prehistoric or modern, eats or has left evidence (in the form of spear and arrowheads, buffalo jumps, paintings of hunting scenes, and cracked bones, etc) that they ate animals, often raw.
If you’re a vegan/vegetarian, but don’t think it’s unnatural to eat meat and have no problem with others doing it, I salute you good sir/ma’am. And I appreciate any answers I get.
Here is a page detailing the enzymes in our bodies, if you’re interested.

It’s HOW the animals are killed and treated whilst they’re alive that turns me off eating, wearing and using anything with animal products in it.
I was brought up on a farm, where we raised and killed our own animals. No suffering or torture involved at all- and everyone in my family is as fit and healthy as can be.
“Life is life. Nothing has a right to it. We just have it till it’s gone. Nor is death anything special. It’s just something that happens.” Couldn’t have said it better myself.
Respecting other and what they eat is important but letting them know that being vegetarian has negative effects. That it’s not all what it is cracked up to be. Below are some answers to common questions that come up on Yahoo.com
Do Vegetarians or vegan live longer?
You life expectances has nothing to do with whether or not you are a vegetarian or a vegan. You life expectances is basined on A. Genetics- your parents live long, chances are you will also B. if you smoke. smoker cut time off their life. C. If you exercise D. Stress levels E. Eating a balanced diet.

B.Most Americas food come from the mid west and south were children and illegal immigrants work. Pesticides and fertilizers that are added to the plaints are very harmful. These chemicals have a long lasting effect on children working in these fields from cancer to birth defects. .- 60 minutes or Chanel 7 news I don’t remember.

Are Vegans’ on the right track?
NO. The very Soap use is made with lard. Many products like make up and solvents are tested on animals. -YOUTUB How it’s made soap.
You’re in for a rude awakening. It is unsafe to eat raw meat in this current point in time.
Meat is a dead carcass that must be cooked to make it more dead. Something so dead, is poison to a living body.
What fairy tale do you live in where you don’t know what factory farming is. All the animals are covered in feces & dead animals. The animals are tortured so that they are abominations (mangled faces, open sores). The animal’s behavior becomes the evil poured into them, trashing their bodies, biting each other’s open sores, becoming an empty shell, real scary ****.
So don’t speak on naturality, if you are oblivious to where meat comes from.
I think most veg’s agree that it is neither natural or unnatural. All we know is it’s unnecessary. In this day and age we have access to all kinds of foods in any given supermarket that would supply all the nutrients we need without relying on animal products. All of those prehistoric societies didn’t have all the food options we in modern society do. Plus many of them were nomadic so they didn’t grow crops, they ate what they could. Especially in winter. The reality is we don’t need animal products anymore, and actually do better without them. The only thing I ever hear from omnivores is excuses “but tribes a million years ago ate meat!” “but we have canine teeth!” “but I work out I need protein!” “vegan food isn’t convenient!” “but I need meat (aka bk whoppers) to survive!” “but but but! but bacon!!!!!!!!!!!!!”. There are no excuses
Japanese eat raw fish all the time?
FUnny. I’ve never seen a Japanese person eating raw fish outside of the very occasional sushi, and I’m here.
Tell me, where did you live in Japan to say that?
Your argument and point is so very vague.
We have plant eaters’ teeth, intestines, stomachs, and limbs.
All meat eating land animals have fangs and claws. Al of them sweat through their tongues, not skin like we do. All plant eating animals sweat through their skin like us. All plant eating animals have the same flat teeth as we do.
Meat eating animals cannot chew. Plant eating animals can chew, and they do it deom side to side, like us.
When we start eating meat, we die younger quicker. That is basic fact. Vegetarians live longer overall, and healthy vegans live the longest overall.
Your point about the spearheads and raw meat is very lovely but so what? Men also beat women in those days and continued doing it til today and still do it. Even now, girls in many parts of the world are considered low class citizens.
Just because we’ve been doing it for ages, doesn’t mean it’s a good habit. Smoking is another example. In fact, it is with the scientific proof we have today, that meat shortens life, that animals who speak different languages than you, also feel pain be they Chinese, North Korean or French, bovine or feline, that people are now able to do the right thing. Wether you like it or not, human intelligence and the ability to reason and think of choices, is a huge big deal that some other animals don’t possess. If you continue to live with the reactionary habits of an ape ( he does it, so will I), then you’re not an evolved human being. The whole point of being human is ( besides other things) to chose the right things, and the most intelligent responsible and compassionate ones do great things like giving up all their money to charity, not eating innocent animals even when they’re craving a steak and so on. It takes a truly evolved person to do these things, and perhaps you don’t understand that.
There’s no point living like a subhuman beast, who only reacts on instinct.
There’s a few items you conveniently forgot. Meat and all animal products contain a very damaging product called cholesterol.
Simply put, no human needs animal cholesterol and it is a substance which is known to cause heart disease- heart attacks, stroke, and cause blood born diseases, and heighten all cancers. We make our own cholesterol to keep our blood healthy. It’s in our DNA. You cannot say we need meat or it’s off produtcs or that it’s a natural food for a human being to thrive off.
DOn’t confuse what some people started doing a few thousands years ago in a time of famine, with the scientific design that nature created these bodies to thrive off.
And your own link contains an interesting page which repeatedly says animal proteins and enzymes are not best suited to a human body.
I am a vegan and i think people should eat both meat and plants. I dont have any stereotype or orders about meat eaters. They should eat whatever food they get in their surroundings because its created by god for humans to eat but (not finish it off) I am a vegan and i cant eat chicken fries, sushi, hot dogs etc 🙁 i really cant get full proteins to my body. But i cant eat meat because my heart will stop me from doing that. So there’s nothing like what you think.

Frankly, I don’t care if it’s unnatural or not. The fact is we CAN LIVE on a plant based diet and do just fine, therefore why should we not?
However, you may know, we cannot eat raw meat. (you can but it’s on you) Why? (cuz it’s unnatural lol) Yet we can eat raw vegetables. Also, true meat eaters can never get clogged arteries because the food goes through their system faster than in ours. As I’m sure you know, humans have a huge problem with clogged arteries.
But don’t take it from me. If you really want to have your mind blown. Watch this —> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=es6ULMmâ¦
…..Red….you are not a vegan, and I feel sorry for you that you have been brainwashed into thinking you aren’t getting everything you need. Meat would kill you and yet you still need something from it?????? Please explain to me how you do not see the connection here.
from what ive read, we dont have the same stomach acids that real meat eaters do. our digestive tract is also long for grains/veggies and not short like meat eaters. we also do not have the same teeth or jaws like meat eaters (lions for example.) true meater teeth and jaws are made to rip open animals and tear off the meat with their mouths. human teeth and jaws are not like that. also, all that meat eating from ancestors is cave man like. the world and people are starting to evolve. people are evolving to see we dont need meat. and the factory farming is just way out of hand what they do. those hormones arnt natural.

Human being’s teeth (Few sharp and few thick) show us that we are Herbivorous(Vegetarian) and Carnivorous (Meat). So the balanced diet is very much important.
I’ve never heard a vegetarian say that the reason they don’t eat meat is because it’s unnatural.
