RE: Why can't humans survive on grasses?

in #stemng6 years ago

Unless there is an evidence pointing to the fact that our ancestors had multiple chambered stomach and chew cud like ruminants, a large stomach does not confer any adaptive advantage to digest fibre in any form. In essence, I do not think our ancestors were able to digest grasses. They could have been plant eaters but grasses were not part of their diets
