The Mongol Diet of Gengis Khan - Big Fire #shorts

The Mongol diet of Genghis Khan was mainly based on meat, especially horse meat, which was considered a sacred food. The meat was eaten both raw and dried, often used to preserve food during military campaigns. The Mongols were also skilled hunters and fishermen and often incorporated fish and game into their diet.
Furthermore, they also consumed dairy products such as milk, yogurt and cheese, which were important sources of protein and calcium.
Due to the conditions of the steppes, the Mongol diet was low in grains and vegetables. However, it could vary according to regions and seasons, as Mongol armies adapted to the local resources available during military campaigns.
