  1. Absolutely not. Meat and animal fat are digested by acids and enzymes in the stomach, and by bile salts and enzymes in the small intestine.


    What "rots" in the colon (i.e. gets digested by bacteria) are the complex sugars in plant matter that our enzymes can't break down. (Apparently several of the other answers are vegetarian/vegan shills.)

  3. Yes it does. It is true that meat is digested(broken down into nutrients, mostly amino acids(small protein fragment[which are further broken down into amino acids in the small intestine); however, the concentration of HCl(hydrochloric acid[aka stomach acid]) is not strong enough to completely break down the meat. Additionally, while Gastric Lipase, which breaks down fat, is secreted in the stomach, works almost exclusively on butter fat. The fat in meat actually protects it from the stomach acid. The fat must be emulsified by the bile(which is secreted in the small intestine). Steapsin is secreted by the pancreas and breaks down the fat in meat into fatty acids which are then broken down by intestinal lipase secreted in the small intestine. Meat is only partially digested, enough to make it not look like meat when it comes out, but you don't get all of the nutrients either. Because most people don't get enough fiber the meat remains in the stomach and is fed upon by the bacteria in your digestive tract and colon, which rots the meat. The human digestive tract is approximately 10-12 times the length of the body, like most herbivores. Carnivores have a digestive tract of approximately 3 times the length of their body which allows rapidly decaying meat to pass through their systems quickly.
