hah but then they get out intact, you can't absorb their nutriments
have faith in your GI system...it usually figures out what to absorb.
Interesting! Was that for flavor, texture, or explosive properties when going through your digestive system?
That works, but its pretty horrible for digestion, you need the acid to break stuff down.
It's not about what they eat, it's about what it becomes in the digestive system.
Not being digested doesn't stop you getting killed.
"why not just leave it in gut for excretion with feces"Because it is hard to distinguish it from nutrients?
may work in a animals stomache?
Why would you expect to not digest something you put in your digestive tract? You do, after all, digest part of that bolt.
I'd like to see how much of it doesn't leave our digestive systems.
