I believe human flesh is lacking in some vital minerals and vitamins (don't recall what though) - the end result being the more you eat, the more you need.
There's a (semi)famous example of an escaped convict here in Tasmania back in the 1800s who, with several others attempted to travel on foot across the then (and mainly still) trackless mountains of the island from the exceptionally rugged west coast.
