do we actully die or do we get killed?

[bluboi89]

We are omnivores. We evolved as critters that eat both meat and plant. We also evolved to eat high-energy foods.

Horses eat grass because they eat much of the time. They don't have to have high-energy foods, because they eat a huge volume. If you want a diet like a horse, be prepared to spend six hours a day eating -- or more, because our digestive systems aren't adapted for drawing nutrients from such things (if it's high in cellulose, we can't use it well).

Just because something has a lot of nutrients in it doesn't mean our digestive systems can get those nutrients out of it.


Your final statement, about the sun, nearly convinces me you haven't had any science past the fifth grade. I'm going to ask a mod to check into whether you're actually old enough to be on this site.

i know, it's hard to understand the things i am saying, but if you think about it it's pretty simple.
they don't teach this in school and being in school, is pretty much wasting time. it's a tool to fit in in society, and is very manipulative. why not try something completley different, and if it doesn't work u can still go back to the normal living? I'm not suggesting anyone should do it, but i will try it myself anyway and see. I can tell you from my experience that the stuff i ate striaght from the ground got digested and i got energy from it.
and yeah, i agree. if we want more nutrition from meat, we better be eating the whole animals, all the organs. but i'd prefer grass O_O

If this wouldn't be trolling you'd be a perfect candidate for Darwin awards.

 

[bluboi89]

why accuse me for trolling?
does the idea of eating fresh greens from nature seem soo absurd to you?
people, it's not poison

Well I'm still calling bullshit.

There are way too many structural flaws with the OP's posts and positions.

We're being played, guys.

But I for one would not discourage someone who apparently has no idea how to look up 'Healthy Plants to eat' on the Interwebz from going out and sampling everything that strikes their fancy.

It is Darwinism in action.

 

[bluboi89]

I heard poison ivy and stinging nettles are really good for you.

poison ivy maybe heals you, and the ''allergic reaction'' is the flushing out the toxins in the body
maybe ur mind is manipulated and u think eating plants can actully poison u
sure, life on earth started to exist bcos the plants that got produced over time are poison X_X
and yeah, i heard stinging nettles are actully good for you. u can't overdose on that

Many are silly child, consider these;
Plants and leafy greens:
*Rhubarb greens
*Brackenfern is edible when the rhizomes and unfurled prongs are roasted, otherwise they are toxic, but can also be used for animal stings.
*Finger cherry (causes blindness)
*White cedar fruit
*Brazilian nightshade, berries look nice but toxic
*Potato and Tomato leaves are apparently contain a mild toxin, never experienced it myself.



Fungi:
*Deathcap mushroom (good luck)
*Gold top mushroom
*Fly agaric mushroom


There are many many MANY more.

Troll...

Weigh a full meal that you eat -- beans and hot dogs, mac and cheese, whatever.

Go out and get the equal weight in grass.

Eat that grass, and you'll see what happens to it -- the same thing as happens with dogs: most of it will come through undigested. Why? Because it's structure is primarily cellulose, and we can't digest cellulose. That means there's not much nutrition in it, because our digestive systems can't break it down.


It's not hard to understand what you're saying at all. You need to understand that you're being an idiot. You're demonstrating that you wasted whatever education you were supposed to be getting. Blaming it on school being useless is an excuse for your own laziness, because school is only useless if you make it so.


If you keep sampling random green things, I expect you'll be vanishing from this board shortly, because you'll end up dead.

 

[cliffdweller]

OP, I hear hemlock is actually the most nutritious plant there is. You should go find some and eat as much as you can.

 

[bluboi89]

if nature wants me dead, so be it!

 

[Kulindahr]

Nature wants you to wise up and use the brain it gave you.

You seem the near epitome of my older brother's definition of man: the only animal that just doesn't use the brains God gave him.

 

[freefall]

Now I'm really confused.
First you said our own bodies kill us.
Then you said the nature kill us.
Then you said eating grass and things prevent us from getting killed by us.
Then you said eating greens provided by nature kill us.
Then you returned to premise number 3 and even tried to assure us that poison is good.

What's next?

We should burn ourselves to ash because it's beneficial for the earth and the earth will later thank us by reanimating us and giving us eternal life providing we eat poisonous grasses and worship the holy God of Aztec?

God this thread is killing us faster than the swine flu.

im 27 & my life was 'cut short' by probably 30 or 40 years a year ago but im grateful, many have suffered worse fates.

No, i said we'r killing ourselves with the food we eat, medicines we take and the war we participate in.
Yes, maybe living completley with nature would grant us eternal life, or something more spiritual xD
and there's no swine flu in plants afaik =D

To borrow from King Henry II: "Will no one rid us of this meddlesome priest."

(And due apology to the Archbishop of Canterbury.)

Living "completely with nature" would mean going naked, eating only what you can find in the wild, sheltering only in what you can build with your bare hands.

Go for it; we'll expect your funeral in a few years.

 

[bluboi89]

that's what u think!

 

[bluboi89]

And saying nothing beyond "ugh" and the occasional scream when yet another arm or leg is eaten by a bear, continually picking lice and ticks off your head and pubic hair by the light of a fire (if you've invented it yet) and not boasting about it all on the internet as you starve to death.

it's what u suspect would happen. but can you be sure of it? ;D

 

[Kulindahr]

that's what u think!

It's called experience, history, and paying attention to science.

Be sure to remember you have to kill things with your bare hands -- tools aren't part of Nature.

i'm not planing to kill things
