He also brings up the old “how do elephants get so big if plants don’t have protein?” Yeah well they eat 300lbs of plant matter a day, so like ~5lbs a day by human scale. Its almost like they are an entirely different animal with a different digestive system and nutritional needs.
- nanaboo 8y agoIt's not only that. (A lot of) animals process/digest cellulose, humans can't. So that's one of the reasons cows can weigh 600-700 kg by just eating gras, which is insane. And which makes me question the vegan diet despite having watched a lot of the youtuber's Vegan Gains videos. I mean I am mostly vegan but that's due to shortage of cash.
