Meat: The Foundation of Human Intellect?
« Reply #30 on: March 23, 2005, 12:56:09 PM »
The History Channel did a  story on cannibalism recently, documented the plight of the athletes who crashed in the Andes in fair detail. I recall hearing/reading (maybe on that show) that human flesh is actually more healthy than that of other animals. Has something to do with the complex amino acids and proteins being already organized in a way that our bodies need, a higher percentage of the intake is utilized that way...

:eek:

I've gone about 80% vegetarian since mid october and have now lost nearly 80lbs. I eat lots less meat than before but get more protein than ever.


WTG! Grun. Have you been working out too or just diet?

Thanks Charon! Both -  simple walking does wonders plus I have started to lift weights again though not nearly as much as I did in high school.

Funny thing is I'm only now realizing how big I had to have been at my max weight, I'm still pretty fat at 250 but at 330 I must have been enormous. Still have a long way to go. :)

Of course you realize that the use of guns to hunt has started the decline in brain size due to the ease in getting the kill.

Actually it only shows up in California. The rest of the nation doesn't show the trend you mentioned. :p  :D

Your welcome Mr. Insaneo.  So bunch, which theory do you prefer?  I like the Aquatic Ape Theory myself.

Lol & thanks...since you ask, IMHO horny (can i say that in this forum?) ape theory is likely most accurate, or maybe creationists are.
