Nope, we have intestines ratio of a herbivore, same teeth, no claws. If we were carnivores we would be able to go out and kill an animal with out bare teeth and eat it all, brains, anus etc. Once you have done that come back and I agree with you that we were meant to eat meat.

The earliest and primary proponent of an all animal-based diet was Vilhjalmur Stefansson, a Canadian explorer who lived with the Inuit for some time, and who witnessed their diet as essentially consisting of meat and fish, with very few carbohydrates - berries during the summer. Stefansson and a friend later volunteered for a one year experiment at Bellevue Hospital in New York to prove he could thrive on a diet of nothing but meat, meat fat and internal organs of animals.[1] His progress was closely monitored and experiments were done on his health throughout the year. At the end of the year, he did not show any symptoms of ill health; he did not develop scurvy, which many scientists had expected to manifest itself only a few months into the diet due to the lack of vitamin C in muscle meat. However, Stefansson and his partner did not eat just muscle meat - they ate fat, raw brain, raw liver (a significant source of vitamin C and others), and other varieties of offal.

I have. I've caught my own fish as well.

Yes but because russell's middle class friends don't do it, it's not The Natural Way.

What it doesn't tell you is he probably died of hear disease at a young age.

but the study did not control for carbohydrate consumption or smoking, which is significant, considering it was a "westernized" Inuit population of which 79% were current smokers and more than likely ate a non-traditional diet

Errr you did it first. My point was we can take snippets like you did and show whatever we want.

So what? Dying at a young age is 'natural'. Most proper carnivores don't make it much past 20.

Young age is relative to the normal lifespan you dimwit.
