I say, if you are going to eat meat, try eating it freshly killed, still warm, and you'll see that it will digest much better. It’s known that humans ate raw marrow from the bones of animals killed by their predator. This was probably before they learned to kill for themselves with weapons. As an end thought, I’ve haven’t heard of Inuit people being referred to as healthy and long-lived before now.


The more inuit people eat "like everyone else" the worse the general health of the inuit population has got. (and I too am a canadian who is very family with inuit culture, having grown up going to school with and being close friends with many inuit peoples)
