Whole-Food, Plant-Based Day 9: Have you ever wondered what our physiology says about what we should eat? People have tried to sell blood type diets, paleo diets, etc., but the way we are built says so much more about what we should eat. So, let’s take a look.

Research: Let’s start with teeth. Both the Forks Over Knives and What the Health documentaries point out that our teeth are most similar to frugivores and herbivores. Look up what the teeth of omnivores and carnivores look like. Our teeth are built for plants.

The same goes for our intestines. Carnivores have a shorter intestine whereas we have a longer intestine so we can digest cellulose in plants. Our bodies seem to be saying plants are our friend.

Recipe: I don’t really like leeks or dill…yet. I’m trying. I think people who like leeks and dill would enjoy this recipe.
