Ooohhh! Now I gotcha! I thought you meant it in a general way.

My guess was that you can become unable to digest meat due to other parts of your diet. The thing is that to digest meat you need hydrochloride in your stomach. Its production may be hindered or adapted against by some components of a mixed diet. My guess was that it's probably grains. But this is just a guess, really. I have nothing to back it up.
Aaaahhh! Now I got that too! And I agree with you. I did extensive long-term experiments with my diet for the last decade and I found that I do better for example on raw plants + meat than on raw plants + meat + grains and other cooked starches or sugar. However, I tried out all possible kinds of combinations and found out that when all other elements in diet, exercise, emotional life etc. remain equal, I do better without meat.

But anyway. To each their own. We're all unique.
