As we all know,plain land makes up the biggest portion of the land area with up to around 43%,covering about 700k-780k square km(approximately 550k sq mile).India also have 6 rivers with length of over 1000km(621 mile).
With those geographic traits,India have a massive advantage in growing plants,crops,etc.
But acording to mutiple studies,a diet based on plants cant provide enough vitamin b12,a very essential vitamin that help with our energy production,fatigue reduction,nerve health and brain function.
This study prove us that their diet is not providing enough vitamin b12,with up to 47% of India population having deficiency:https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6540890/
So how do they fix this problem?
The Indian have found a genius way to provide them vitamin b12,with something we all avoid: POOP
Poop is widely accesible,being produced every day,and packed with vitamin b12.Yes,vitamin b12 is present in poop,being created by microorganism.However,because this process only happens in the colon,the human body cant absorb it.Proof for b12 presence in poop:https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC2900183/
So,we can finally understand about the importance of poop in Indian culture,as well as the reason behind it
