How can you confirm your statement ? Did you try it before ?
I don't think this is scientifically true. And I don't eat humans of course lol

Kuru is a very rare, incurable neurodegenerative disorder that was formerly common among the Fore people of Papua New Guinea. Kuru is caused by the transmission of abnormally folded prion proteins, which leads to symptoms such as tremors, loss of coordination, and neurodegeneration.

The term kuru derives from the Fore word kuria or guria ("to shake"),[1] due to the body tremors that are a classic symptom of the disease and kúru itself means "trembling".[2] It is now widely accepted that kuru was transmitted among members of the Fore tribe of Papua New Guinea via funerary cannibalism. Deceased family members were traditionally cooked and eaten, which was thought to help free the spirit of the dead.[3] Females and children usually consumed the brain, the organ in which infectious prions were most concentrated, thus allowing for transmission of kuru. The disease was therefore more prevalent among women and children.

While the Fore people stopped eating human meat half a century ago, the disease lingered due to kuru’s long incubation period of anywhere from 10 to over 50 years.[4] The epidemic declined sharply after discarding cannibalism, from 200 deaths per year in 1957 to 1 or no deaths annually in 2005, with the last known kuru victim dying in 2009.[5][6]

Mother Nature and God has you covered.

Casual cannibalism is not just sin, it is basically just another mechanism by which you voluntarily remove yourself outside of human race and gene pool.

eeating humans can give you a lot of different diseases. There is a thing called prions. Prions are this part of a human that will basically cause you problems in your mouth when you eat them. It reacts negatively to your inside of your body as it is toxic in a way, it causes holes in your tongue or cheek/mouth and will cause problems inside you too.

What if it was the sacrificed child of your enemy? What if it gave you secret powers? What if it held the key to world domination? Would you do it? Would you eat another person?
