Gorillas’ Diet Helps Understand Human Diet
Researchers and nutritionist believe that the diets of the great apes
in the wild (gorillas, chimpanzees and orangutans) may provide insights
into the nature of the foods that hominoids evolved to eat and that have
shaped human nutrient requirements for health. This article describes a
research study of gorillas in the wild indicating that a diet with
virtually no cholesterol, high in fiber and high in plant protein seems
to be the ideal diet for hominoids.

Eden was vegan (Genesis 1:29-31)! As the Bible tells us, God’s ideal
plan for us included a non-violent diet, as depicted in the Garden of
Eden and in several prophecies, such as Isaiah 11:6–9, where he foresees
a return to this vegetarian world, where the wolf, lamb, lion, cow,
bear, snake, and little child all coexist peacefully. Christians should
strive to live a life conducive to the healing and reconciliation of
God’s Creation.
