is it true you die if you eat to much horse meat?

Question

i'm just wondering as like among my friends its like an urban myth, and none of us are sure

Answer 1

No it' s a myth. The mongols main diet was up to recently mainly made of horse meat and milk. With that diet in the times of Ghengis Khan they conquered most of Asia and part of Europe

Answer 2

if you eat to much of anything you could die.
I know that bear meat has a high vit. B12 content that could kill you from eating too much. so it is possible that other animals have similar problems.
Horses are very similar to other farming animals, and so I would doubt that it could kill you any more than eating too much cow meat

also there are many cultures that think that Cow is on the "do not eat list" so don't be so closed minded as to think your way is the right way

Answer 3

It is not true. But it is true that you can die of "too much of anything". It reminded me of a guy who heard that eating fish is good for you, so for the next whole year he was eating nothing but fish 3 times a day (with vegetables and staff, but fish every time on the menu). So, at the end of the year one day he felt sick and was rushed into hospital - nearly died - and all because of too much fish. Now he is not allowed to eat fish for the rest of his life! that's the story. And I know the guy. Would never believe if I didn't.

Answer 4

that is a stupid question as they eat a lot of horse meat in France and the population has not deteriorated and in fact horse meat is very tasty

Answer 5

I think you could probably die from eating too much of anything. Like 10 pounds of goat cheese would probably do anyone in
