After alcoholism and smoking, eating meat is the leading cause of death in Western Europe, the United States, Australia. One of the reasons for the harm of meat is that the human digestive tract is not adapted to digesting meat. Carnivorous animals have a contagious short intestine (three times longer than the body), which allows the timely withdrawal of fast-disintegrating and toxin-releasing meat from the body. In herbivores, the intestine is six times as long as the body, since plant food is decomposed much slower than meat. A man, like herbivores, has a long intestine, so when he eats meat, toxins are formed in the body that make kidneys difficult and promote the development of arthritis, rheumatism, gout and even cancer. In addition, the meat is treated with chemicals. Just as the animal is slaughtered, its carcass begins to decay and after a few days it will turn gray-green. At meat processing plants, this is prevented by nitrites, etc.. substances that have carcinogenic properties. Also in food, animals destined for slaughter, too, add a huge amount of chemicals.
