Here is a report showing AGE-levels for cooked foods, some of which have been boiled. Note how even the boiled foods, while containing fewer amounts of heat-created toxins than other types of cooked foods, still contain sizeable amounts of such toxins:-

Plus, the trollish claim that cooking makes food more nutrient-rich is similiarly ridiculous given plentiful reports re nutrient-loss caused by cooking:-

Only exceptions include things like grains, but grains are a health-problem even when cooked, plus cooking creates additional heat-created toxins in the process.
The whole point is that most modern cattle, however grassfed, are severely inbred(and therefore unhealthy) so as to provide far inferior meat to raw wild game. Besides, feeding on grass does NOT mean they are on the same level as raw wild animals as, say, a wild aurochs in palaeo times would have had access to plants(ie herbs) other than just grass/hay. I've been told by 1 grassfed-meat (rawpalaeo)farmer that adding herbs like clover makes a hell of a difference to the nutritional profile of his grassfed meats, for instance.
I don't think you get that we can feed the cultivated cows wild foods and they will end up with similar nutrient content to wild aurochs, this isn't the case for cultivated fruits.Not at all. You see, domestication of animals has directly led to severe inbreeding, which, naturally, ruins the quality/taste(and therefore nutrient-profile) of the raw meats. I noticed, for example, that the (farmed/grainfed) wild boar I ate in the UK, while not tasting anywhere near as good as genuine raw wild boar, still tasted WAY better than domesticated, raw grainfed pork, by comparison.
The inbreeding has, of course, gotten even worse in the last few decades due to the odious practice of using the semen of just 1 bull to father 1,000s of cattle at a time, thus leading to sickly, inbred animals with no resistance to disease of any note. One other aspect are the udders of domesticated cows which are far larger, due to millenia of inbreeding, than the tiny, almost invisible udders of aurochs females in palaeo times.
For the most part though I've had plain lean steaks and vegetables (probably 75%).
Do you have percentages for other monkeys like chimps?
Are you implying that a measurable amount of energy is gained, if any at all, from the fermentation?
Very interesting. That would confirm my own experience.
Could you show us some reports/studies about these 2-5% and benefical short chain fatty acids?
Löwenherz
No energy is gained from this. Resources are wasted just for the digestive system to handle the plants.
Yes, as far as I know, they all have small amounts, even egg yolks do.
I meant to specify apes. Apes (with an exception of humans) can digest vegetation. Fruit isn't a significant food as it's not common enough to provide calories to a human population.
Other than apes, most monkeys eat lots of fruit with little animal products. We can eat fruit and not have problems so long as they aren't super high in sugar because of genetic breeding.
