Is Eating Humans Actually Unhealthy?

Cannibalism is a clear taboo in our society. But, putting ethics aside, what are the other reasons why you should not eat other humans?

Following is a transcript of the video:
Did you know that cannibalism used to be a popular medical remedy?
That’s right! In the 17th century, well before Advil Europeans would ingest ground up mummies for headaches. And human fat, blood, and bone were used to treat everything from gout to nosebleeds.
Yet cannibalism is largely absent and morally frowned upon in today. But let’s forget the social quagmire. There are plenty of reasons why you shouldn’t eat people these days.
For starters, we now know that human meat is a surprisingly low source of calories compared to other red meat. According to one study human muscle contains about 1,300 calories per kilogram. That’s less than beef and nothing compared to bear and boar meat.
Now, you might think this would actually make human burgers a great low-cal alternative until you remember you’re probably trying to eat humans because you’re starving to death. So, low-cal is the opposite of what you want.
Plus it’s not worth taking the risk - if you can help it. Turns out, we carry some pretty nasty diseases that make 24-hour food poisoning look like the sniffles. Eat someone raw, and you risk contracting any blood-borne diseases they carried.
But even if you cook the meat, it still won’t always go well for you. Case in point are the Fore people of Papua New Guinea. They would eat the body and brain of deceased family members out of cultural tradition. But that practice stopped after hundreds of people died in the 1950s and ‘60s from an otherwise rare neurological disorder which they contracted from eating infected human brains.
Turns out, the brain tissue contained prions - deadly misfolded proteins that form spongy holes in your brain. They survive the cooking process and, if eaten, are highly contagious.
On the legal side of things, cannibalism falls into a gray area. Oddly enough, cannibalism itself is not illegal in the US or UK, but you probably committed some crime along the way to get that slab of meat.
Grave robbing, desecration of a corpse, murder, or maybe all of the above?
One exception that won’t put you behind bars, is if you eat … yourself! Yup, that’s a thing. It’s called autocannibalism.
The most common example today, called placentophagy, is when a woman eats her placenta after giving birth. The idea is that it can raise energy levels and reduce the risk of postpartum depression by stabilizing hormones. But the science is still out on whether there’s any real benefit.
Regardless, this ancient practice has recently found new life in Western culture. Kim Kardashian and Alicia Silverstone have reportedly done it. And there are numerous US companies that will grind your placenta into a powder so you can take it like any other vitamin supplement.
But the CDC warns that even this cutting-edge form of cannibalism is a bad idea. Because it can transfer harmful bacteria from mother to child.
So, if you have a hankering for human, maybe try some pork instead. After all - that’s what we taste like. Wait … we obviously mean: ACCORDING TO CANNIBALS ANYWAYS!

J J ”Darling, I’m sorry but I’m leaving you and the kids.” he said, not daring to meet her eyes. ”But why, George!?” ”Well, you see...” he stumbled on the words as he saw her tearing eyes. ”...I ...I met... this cannibal on craigslist and we are going to eat my penis.” Now that he had started to tell her he could not stop. It was like ripping of a band-aid. ”And then with my recorded agreement I will let him eat me, after he kills me while recording the whole ordeal.” ”No daddy!” the children cried over the kitchen table in chorus. Cannibalism is legal in USA, as long as you have sufficiently recorded consent from your ”food”, and also wait until it’s dead before eating. Let’s imagine that two people are locked in. They have a phone, but no signal and no food. In order for one of them to survive they agree that one of them gets to eat the other one. So they record the agreement so that nobody will hold a grudge against the one that survives. It’s a nice loophole in the law. It’s like a good, full veal, not too young, not too beef. It’s actually so close to good veal that I think a normal person with with a normal sensitiveness could not tell it apart from veal in a stew. It’s a mild, good meat with no other sharply defined or highly characteristic tastes. Such that goat, game, and pork have. I have to say that veal is the meat to which human meat is accurately comparable, not chicken as many say who haven’t tried it yet claims.

IS VORE HEALTHY?

[@kellyfloyd9506]

Years ago I watched a program on Nova about cannibalism among one group of people in Papua New Guinea. It was not something that they had as a regular part of their diet, but when a person died consuming them was part of a ritual. Then for some reason they started getting neurological/central nervous system disorders. So the men stopped, but told the women to keep doing it because 'it's tradition'. So a woman dies of this disease (from cannibalism) and then she is consumed, and other women get the same disease from eating her. I mean, at what point do the women say "Ok clearly this is not the thing to do and we're stopping no matter what the men say about it." But no- cannibalism had to be outlawed by the government before they finally stopped. I don't like to criticize other peoples ways, but dang! Come on now!

[@blackwidowwisp6255]

Yea that’s the tribe she mentioned in the video. And the woman ate it because it was believed that a woman’s body could hold the soul of the deceased. The men did not partake. They also strung the dead up in trees for a couple weeks in wood coffins before preforming this act.. so there’s that to consider 😂

That's what you are saying now, but many human experiments through the history has shown, that people are ready to do anything when they are hungry enought. Hope you won't have to find out what human meat taste like as a last resort to avoid starvation. I would choose someone young, thin and healthy looking person if i had to, and if it tastes like pork(if that myth is true), well that sounds like a five star dinner after couple of weeks without any food.

[@ramdomstuff2755]

Those, who are more modern cannibals, have actually reported it to be a mix between a seafood taste and a pork like taste. Like eating tuna and pork relatively in the same time frame. It’s also been compared to Vole, which while not commonly eaten, is said to best describe the taste. It’s cooked like beef would, seeing as our fat structures are generally similar, and wine cooked may be confused for a slightly spoiled beef. Fun facts :D

So what's the risk if you know the person's healthy, don't actually eat the brain and cook the meat thoroughly? Which is pretty much the normal procedure on animal meat too.. Just curious, don't worry :D

[@fmazerolol]

Well, the brain should be completely safe, the person whose brain was eaten must have had prions disease, so if the brain you eat comes from someone who didn't seem to have any signs of encephalopathy, you should be safe from that.

[@randomshit4044]

I was thinking the same thing lol

[@Benderofdemise]

I think they won't discuss the point cause that's actually possible. So low calorie diet? Also in most countries cannibalism is allowed under a few circumstances. Like if you did it out of survival or if it's consentsual and there is a contract between eater and be-eaten. I remember once reading that in Belgium a lawyer ate a man and he kept remains in his fridge and when the cops found out he was arrested but was then released cause it was contracted.
