Previous Episode: PART II Humans are meant to eat meat. Just look at these incisors in my mouth.

Next Episode: Response to: "If you were on a desert island and were starving, I bet you'd eat meat then; I eat only meat from humanely raised animals"; and other statements based on hypothetical scenarios and myths.

Cow's milk is indeed a natural food — for calves, just as human milk is made for humans, rat's milk is made for rats, and dog's milk is made for dogs.

Calves stop drinking cow's milk when they're weaned, and humans stop drinking human milk when they're weaned, but somehow we've all been convinced that humans should continue drinking cow's milk — and never wean.
