evidence: It is widely accepted that humans are omnivores. We don’t quite have all the traits of a classic carnivore, such as fang-like teeth, claws, or the ability to produce our own vitamin C. We are able to survive solely on plants for years and decades. But I would argue that does not mean we are omnivorous, or at least not optimally. Our brain and capability to makes tools and think strategically make up for the fact that we do not have fangs or claws. We are also able to consume vitamin C from animal parts, particularly organs. [...] Humans have many small fat cells like all carnivores. ‘Pond and Mattacks compared the structure of fat cells in various types of animals. Carnivores were found to have a higher number of smaller fat cells and omnivores a smaller number of larger fat cells. Humans were found to be at the top of the carnivorous pattern. Pond and Mattacks conclude: "These figures suggest that the energy metabolism of humans is adapted to a diet in which lipids and proteins rather than carbohydrates, make a major contribution to the energy supply."’ [...] From all of these adaptations, it is clear that humans have been moving further from herbivory/omnivory, and closer to carnivory. But there are counter-arguments that need to be acknowledged.
