The article cites Rubner to debunk the idea that fresh meat grants unusual strength. It states muscular energy comes from carbohydrates like starch and sugar, and from fat, with protein supplying only the body’s solid tissue. If nonflesh foods meet heat and energy needs, flesh may spoil in the diet, explaining why exclusive flesh diets can differ from mixed diets.
