One of the first things that should be eliminated from your diet is animal products, especially meat. Meat has a tendency to remain an especially long time in the intestines of humans and putrefy. Humans simply do not have the capacity to digest meat properly.
True carnivores have very short intestines that allow them to rapidly process and eliminate the meat they eat. But within our human bodies, with our much longer intestines, meat putrefies as it makes its way through the system, and this produces many toxins. The foods we are meant to eat (fruits and vegetables) do not tend to putrefy. Since they are mostly water, they can benefit from a longer transit time in the intestines in order for the body to absorb maximum nutrition from them.
