      And the test results are even more meaningful than animal tests with mice.

      As a side effect, this can also reduce the surplus amount of oxygen wasters.

    It’s strange to me they tested mice. My understanding is that Porcine (pigs) models are usually utilized to evaluate potential GI/intestinal effects on humans. As human and Porcine GI tracts are similar (why you really need to cook pork or you can get diseases or worms from the meat).

    The article mentioned cats, so the current list of know susceptible species seems to be bird, cow, mice, and cats. Not a great sign.

      Even if you aren’t vegan or vegetarian, you’ve gotta be crazy to think it’s working as is. Not sure why you’re front downvoted

        Same reason climate change deniers don’t like hearing people say we need to do something about climate change 🤷
