I just dont understand it 'scientifically'.

Our ancestors probably did all sorts of things most people would find repugnant. I imagine they didn't spend a lot of time thinking about whether murder or rape was ethical either. People have various reasons for being vegetarian but I think most people turn vegan for ethical reasons, not primarily their health.

Also I would dispute the claim that our digestive systems are designed to eat large quantities of meat. I'm curious why you think being a Vegan would be hard on someones body compared to eating food like McDonalds regularly?

I do eat a rather large quantity of meat myself, probably to my health's detriment.
