      @@melissalonla I watched a video about a baby that wasn't growing and the doctors couldn't figure out why that was. In the end someone asked if the baby's nappy was filled very frequently and smelled worse than the norm. The answer was yes, and the reason was that the baby just wasn't absorbing the nutrients from their food, so the food essentially went strait through their body.
      If not absorbing nutrients and foul smelling waste are linked, this would also explain why Tarrare needed to eat so much; because he was bad at absorbing nutrients from what he did eat, he needed to eat way more to survive.

    He totally left out the most interesting stuff. They found that his stomach acid was drastically more acidic than the common man. To the point of mostly destroying the nutrition in the food and leaving him with permanent diarrhea. His stomach lining was extremely thick and was covered in ulcers. And if I’m remembering correctly he had significantly less intestine than the average human.

      @@Cosiek7 Basically it could be a result of the stomach being four times bigger. It could store way more food, but it would not be able to digest it well because of its size. There wouldn't be any more gastric acide than usual so it would not be enough for larger quantities of food, it would be able very small puddle at the bottom instead of filling a part of the stomach because the surface is so large meaning that it is overall less efficient and it would not be able to reach the food that is the middle because it is too large to reach them with the contractions.
      Basically, the size made it extremely inefficient at digesting meaning that he needed to eat more and more to keep up as only a small portion of what he ate converted successfully (meaning that the prussiana who tried to get the papers back had a very very big crap of partially digested food to search if that's really what happened).

      @@somesabatonfan180 it's just pure fantasy at that point. Nazi's whole goal was invading soviet and eliminate "evil commies and get living place for germans to live in" and america was the most oil producing country untill 50s. Middle eastern oil was used for royal navy's fuel. 2nd america will never join the nazi because first, japan would inevitably attack usa reason is that us wss embargoing japan hard and japan had 2 options one is attacking soviet and getting not that much resources and have to use shit ton of effort for that. Option 2 was attack S.E asia when their colonial masters are busy fighting germans,fortify those islands and defend them hard so allies will bleed a lot so make them ask for peace. This is the reasons why japan attacked pearl harbor. Soviet was the only nation gave japan lifethreat before they bomb pearl harbor. There are some things you can't change. Nazi's attacking Soviet and Japan attacking US unless you remove young officers' coup attempt of 1936(due to this,japan became virtually millitary dictatorship. And generals were eager to prove themselves. Parliament lost power) if you change those, then they are not people you're talking about. They're just your fantasy.

      To be fair though, correlation may not equate to causation, but his propensity to attempt consuming human cadavers would certainly allow the perception that he might be consciously able to consume an infant. Considering his attitudes of killing and consuming animals, no less to the manner by which he does it, it wouldn't be a stretch of one's imagination.

    I think I remember reading somewhere that when he ultimately died due to a bowel blockage (I know... big surprise) his internal organ proportions were way off. His stomach was took up an absurd amount of space in his abdomen, so I guess his intestines we smaller than the normal person. I believe that could be the cause for him developing such a big appetite. If his intestines were shorter than a normal person then he would have as much time to absorb nutrition from his waste as it passed through him. He may have unintentionally stretched his stomach purely for the necessity to survive. The short/loose intestines could also explain the ability to pass a box through him with out any complications.

    I'm going to guess that he had an inefficient digestive tract. Getting nearly no actual nutrition I'm sure his "fullness" was turned off so he could get enough to survive. The horrific part is, if that theory holds water, most things would pass through him partially digested, which explains why nothing he ate really damaged him. Also, it means that his organs shifted as a child and his nmfatigue and odor were likely due to his organs being unable to function.

    For him not to have put on weight, he also probably had to have not actually been absorbing much in the way of nutrients from food, right? Which may also partly explain why he could throw so much down his throat - his body was crying out for nutrients, and if you can't absorb *efficiently* you much instead increase the opportunities to absorb.
