I read this on a website. Even though I am vegetarian/vegan, I am in no way pushing it on you guys. I just want to know what you guys think about his opinion that meat causes stomach disorders? Is it possible?
Although I DO NOT follow the Hallelujah Acres Diet, I do think some of it makes sense as it is just a return to more healthy, back to nature eating. It cuts out processed food that we all know is garbage!

"The alimentary canal of humans is about 30 feet in
length, or approximately 5 to 6 times body length, and is
corrugated for the specific purpose of retaining food long
enough for all nutrients to be extracted. This is the very
worst possible condition for the digestion and processing
of flesh foods. The digestive system of man was designed by
God to move food through this lengthy digestive tract by
means of FIBER! Animal flesh contains NO FIBER! Because
there is no FIBER in animal flesh, animal flesh moves very
slowly through the human digestive tract, in a very warm
and moist environment of 98.6 degrees. This slow movement
of the animal flesh, in this very warm environment, causes
the flesh to PUTREFY. This PUTREFACTION is what causes body
odor, strong smelling stools, and because there is no FIBER
to move the PUTREFIED FLESH along rapidly, causes
constipation.
"This FIBERLESS, PUTREFIED FLESH, moving ever so slowly
through this very warm human digestive tract, becomes the
primary cause of all colon problems – including Crohn's
Disease, Colitis, Ulcerative Colitis, Diverticulitis,
Diverticulosis, Irritable Bowl Syndrome (IBS), Colon
Cancer, and more. If animal flesh foods were eliminated
from man's diet, we could practically eliminate all
digestive and colon problems, including acid stomach
problems and gout, which are caused by the highly acidic
nature of animal foods. If humans stopped consuming animal
flesh, these digestive and colon problems would cease, as
would all the surgeries, radiation, and drugs used by the
medical community in an effort to subdue the symptoms
caused by the consuming of animal flesh."
