Guest guest Posted May 22, 2007 Report Share Posted May 22, 2007 Hi Bill, The odors you describe arise from meat rotting within and from the highly acidic nature of the proteins in meat. Short digestive systems that produce gastric juice with a pH of 2 or less (give or take) digest meat reasonably well. Long digestive systems that produce gastric juice with a pH of 4 or above digest various forms of vegetation quite well. Humans fall entirely into the second category.

At Tue, 22 May 2007 it looks like msncamwales composed: > I have noticed since eating a high percentage raw diet how little body > odour my body produces on a hot sweaty day! > Anybody else noticed that? Saves money on deoderant anyway hee hee > Yes, the first thing during my " one-year " return to meat was the pungent smell of my urine and the need for deodorant again... I was close to three(3) years meat free then I bumped my head and listened to someone who ate a few bites of meat once a week and was also a part of my original rawfood family... It's been 22 days now with no meat, the " see-saw " is moving back to where it was as is the odors (or lack of) and other traits consistant with a non-meat diet. -- " Health nuts are going to feel stupid someday, lying in hospitals dying of nothing.
