Delta, … don’t eat people!

Firstly as apex predators, people are some of the least nutritious creatures you can eat. Secondly, this is a fantastic way to catch things like Kuru, Syphilis and HIV just to name a few. Thirdly, eww Why!?

Actually eating human flesh is very nutritious as it is made up exactly of the proteins and chemicals as you are so it is easier for body to absorb. But do to us being warm blooded it is not energy efficient long term to kill and eat members of out own species.

As for the eww factor there is some speculation that under starvation conditions people begin to lose their inhibitions against acts that they would not normally preform.



As to a why if it is either eat the flesh of a dead person or starve to death what would you do?

 except that there are also multiple diseases one can only get from eating other humans...
