The elites dont want you to know this.

Wood =/= bark (Phloem)
Gut bacteria digest it
>>16853903you have to take your enzyme pills
Oh sweet, a schizo thread
i eat 2 by 4s from bunnings
>>16854000Bacteria in your gut can digest cellulose.You can increase their frequency by taking probiotics and also consuming more fiber, this will make it easier to digest larger amounts of cellulose.You know where you can find bacteria that can digest cellulose? In raw milk, i.e in dirty milk from a dirty cow udder. Dirty with cow poo.
>>16853920deer eating some sort of pine needles get manganese madness which causes a chronic wasting disease. it's often confused with prion diseases
Cellulose is potentially digestible but wood is mostly hard indigestible lignin.Our close relatives the gorilla and chimp are both much better able to digest cellulose than we are because they have a functional hind gut fermentation system which our ancestors abandoned for pragmatic reasons ie we could get a lot more energy into our system by eating fats instead of sitting around waiting for leaves to ferment.It's the same reason we don't have chloroplasts.
>>16854583can i ferment leaves at home overnight and drink the slop for breakfast? I have the time
>>16854586kimchi and saurkrout?
>>16853903I mean if your a fungus on the tail end of a cow's seventh stomach, then yeah.So what.
>>16854717Mate and chai?
>>16854586just put some beans in a jar
>>16854717thats not done on wood or leaves, as far as i can tell it produces a beneficial type of vitamin K, the bacteria does. Pausterized foods can have it if they are pasteurized after fermentation
So how do I digest cellulose and use it for energy anon?
Just eat the trees. It's that easy.
>>16853903cellulose? you mean like stretch marks on a woman's ass? So you're saying I should eat ass
>OP likes wood
>>16853920All humans have the same basic, natural diet. The vast majority of humans migrated to regions where they were forced by necessity to adapt their diets to the region or the climate. These adaptive diets are always inferior to the base human diet but when you decide to migrate to a Northern pine forest, you don't have the luxury of choice. You eat what you can, and maybe that turns out to be pine bark.Thanks to climate control technology and global supply chains, it's now possible to eat the optimal human diet regardless of where you live. There is no longer any reason to eat foods or follow diets that people only adopted out of necessity.
>>16853920How are you supposed to eat this? Boiled? Cooked? As is?
>>16854532The same kind of person who thinks chitin is digestible therefore we must eat bugs like cockroaches.
>>16856554https://practicalselfreliance.com/pine-bark-bread/none yours are incorrect, in a pinch you can slice some off (not too large so as to damage the tree too heavily) and gnaw on it for awhile if needed.they'd boiler it awhile until it was easier to chew at.the sami though did it best, harvest the tree for a lodgepole, strip off all the bark, dry it, embrittle it to a flour, and bake bread.
>>16856564start slow with a few bugs until you grow your gut flora
>>16853903Elites don't want you to know that they pad a bunch of food in the grocery store with wood pulp and cellulose to makes it heavier, so you think you are getting a better deal.
>>16853903Ok, but what about digesting Industrial Waste, when are we getting into the Crimes of the Future timeline?
>>16853903ruminant hoofs typed this
>>16857085>ruminant>trees mostly lignincould it be termites?
>>16853903You know, on that topic are there bacteria that we can use to digest lignin into a more nutritious state like what we do with lactobacillus in pickling/lactofermentation to break cellulose and other sugars into more nutritionally available substances?I suppose mushroom farming (tree mushrooms like oyster and shiitake mushrooms not button mushrooms) is sorta that, but that's a much slower process. I was thinking the other day that if we could ferment wood into a nutritious state we could let stands of vast growing sources of lignin and cellulose like bamboo and grasses grow then innoculate them with bacteria and yeasts gene edited to produce things like dha and epa omega 3s (we typically associate that with oily fish but the fish get them from marine microalgae and cyanobacteria like schizochytrium) and vitamin d and B12.
>>16857553>schizochytrium
>>16857553it's better to turn wood into fertilizer or animal feed filler (which we already do)
>>16853903only for black people because theyre apes

Beavers eat wood, but produce very little milk (excess lactose anerobic energy cycle) (ATP = OXYGEN RICH krebs cell energy).Termites don't make buckets of milk.Goats however do generate excess milk.Pick the short-gut process that benefits you best. Cellulase supplements can only take your biology so far. Note too, the camel uses a similar function, but benefits more drastically from how it chooses to store the excess lactose versus a cow. The big functional difference is growing to the size of a bear or cow or hippo and getting a tougher outer skin. Or choosing the beaver gut or termites route and surviving faster smaller, but with a wider range of dietary choices. You hit the Centaur Problem pretty quick without better teeth though. A Centaur is man plus horse, but the man bits have to shove enough chewed cellulose materials down his human mouth, then gut, then into the horse's gut or the redundancy would sit around the bend angle. Along with drinking enough water to supply the horse and human bits what you gain in intelligence and speed, you lose by overstressing the centaur human bits esophagus with bales of hard rough grasses. You'd be better off going the spider route where you find wood, vomit up a bucket of cellulase-rich liquid, then coming back to slurp up the softened wood like a termite after a rain storm. Or eating sawdust, lots of sawdust.Next problem, fermented wood creates liver destroying methyl alcohol (rubbing alcohol), so good luck there unless you're a diabetic which is locked into "dry drunk" failure mode where you body produces excess blood alcohol which can neutralize the wood alcohols.
Why not just chip the wood and use it for livestock bedding material?
Okay so cellulose is digestible. Is it tasty though?
>>16858189Its tasty as filler for chocolate cake
With what fucking Cellulase?
I dont have much pine in my areaWhat other kinds of trees have edible parts?
>>16859140Birch?
>>16853920There are a bunch of types of pines and a few of them are poisonous.

>>16853903You can break down the lignin in wood while leaving cellulose intact. This can be done by either inoculating wood with a white rot fungus like oyster mushrooms that will digest the lignin for you or by fermenting wood with brewer’s yeast and sugar water at about 25 C for a few weeks to create flake soil. This is how beetle breeders prepare wood for beetle larvae rather than having to go out into the woods and find rotting wood at the correct stage of decomposition to collect
No it's not, nor is fiber.
>>16853903brb, going out to chew on some trees
>>16861527Interesting that it's dependent on fungus. Before that enzyme evolved, lignin would never decay.
