i dont understand why that is said, usually the people that tell me that are vegans or vegetrians, i got nothing against them just saying. but yeah from my knowledge meat should be pretty much be digested anywhere from 4 to 6 hours depending on the size of the meal. im thinkin what they mean for meat being in the system for 6 days is a bit of it my stick to the outsides of your large intestine just kuz its a bit hard for you body to digest some forms of proteins and fats. but i guess some fiber while you eat meat would clear that up. ok so i just looked it up, and to my understanding i kinda was right, it says that some of the meat cna get stuck in the intestine. apparently its called colon plaque. i wouldnt worry about it, im pretty sure a little bit of allot of oyur food will do the same.
