With high stomach acid levels, we as humans can pretty much digest most organic materials and compounds, however at one point humans were able to digest grass and leaves and one point thousands of years ago. Evidence is found in our appendix a small useless organ that at one point secreted enzymes that helped digest leaves/grass, with evolution this organ wasn't necessary and slowly shrank giving no function to the body. People can live without the appendix.
