There are no universal diets that is perfect for everyone. Each of our bodies are unique and our dietary needs differ depending on our physiology and genes.

It is true we can have different needs, a body builder would need more protein and an athlete would need more carbohydrates. However, we all have the same digestive system capable of the same things. There is a level of versatility involved, that's why we can vary our diet, but that does not mean some humans are born carnivores and others herbivores.

^Agreed^
And these activities- body building, athletics, etc, are all human made activities. Yeah, I'm sure that being the stronger species, via body building, would help in quite a few situations in the wild, or that being an athlete would make you more healthy for natural situations, as well as the olympic games, but we probably didn't need these qualities.
I never thought about humans being herbivores originally..... and reading these posts are making me realize that we probably were and maybe still should be.
That doesn't mean I'm becoming a vegitarian, like the OP said, things like B12 are removed from fruits and veg in the process of delivering them to our plates.
Nice discussion *Thumbs Up*
