As a result, the human intestines are only two-thirds shorter than those of apes. In contrast, the human brain is larger. The human brain is the most efficient organ for energy in the body. In fact, species of apes with larger brains have smaller intestines, while those with larger intestines possess smaller brains. This is referred to as the “exchange relationship between the brain and the intestine.” Eating boiled foods indicates cooking. This single factor decisively distinguishes humans. Don’t underestimate the significance of cooking. - Joseph’s “just my thoug...
