If you then eat beef or pork you have a horrid time trying to breakdown the meat and from my own experience it is good to stick close to a bathroom.
Since digestion of the meat requires a purely optional very specialized enzyme to digest, this leads me to believe that eating beef and pork to be purely optional and removing them from the diet neither harmful or beneficial (as many vegetarians will try to tell you). Thus beef and pork (and horse, deer, elk, goat .. "red" meat") are more of a bonus to get additional amino acids and protein. While the body requires vitamins that come from vegitables to function.

BIONCA,
Thank you.
I heard the stomach forces out foreign substances rather quickly, which would explain that anomaly.
Early man did not eat meat until he saw other animals doing it, and most animals were not afraid of us until they became lunch and dinner.
