Thanks guys,

I definitely know the raw fats/proteins (especially egg yolk, raw butter) really help with the adrenals.  Part of the problem is that the adrenals are fighting off the infections/inflammation.  Has anybody done one of those "egg yolk" liver flushes?  I think i'm getting to the point of wanting to do some sort of flush but i have never heard of it before and don't want to screw myself up.  I have done coffee enemas before but debating doing a big liver flush of some kind.  Jessica, i agree sometimes more is not necessarily better.  Sometimes i end up pushing too hard with healing and backslide a little.  The body can only do so much as one time.  I am basically following klinghardt protocol for lyme.  I agree about the "internal terrain."  I mean it's not like lyme is a new illness, it's just expressing more with weakened immunity/energy levels.  I will probably add in some anti lyme/parasite herbs in the future but it seems like the main thing is getting all the organs clear and healthy first.  That is where most of my symptoms come from anyways.

I do have a large supply of fresh atlantic salmon that has been sitting really good just lightly broiled so yea i will work on that.  I just had a mix of some beef "heart/liver/ground beef" very lightly cooked in some stock and it seemed to be alright.  I think it's just my system getting used to it that needs to happen.

I think the main issue is that my gut is inflamed and has bad bacteria/parasites, etc and has for a few years.  So i know this problem is not going to go away in a week.  Right now i am following basically the "GAPS diet."  I naturally feel like shifting over to raw fats/eggs is good for me.  When i do the raw protein (liver) in a shake it works because it is already blended up.  Vegetables just irritate my system/cause constipation unless cooked or juiced.  If i tried to eat a raw steak i feel like it would just sit in my stomach.  I use saurkraut and fermented foods and what not.  I feel like maybe sitting on what i am doing now on GAPS is going to heal up the system a lot.  But i definitely feel like my body will accept rare/lightly cooked, ground meats before it accepts raw meat.  Kind of a vicious cycle.

Hey guys,

Chronic health issues.  Possible lyme.  Weak adrenals.  Bad digestion.  Everything is getting better slowly.  I do eat paleo but not all raw.  Raw fats/oils.  Raw eggs.  Meat is a problem for me.  Every now and then i do a "raw liver" drink which is starting to taste and sit well but it is mixed/blended up.  I most likely have a "leaky gut" and have tried to eat raw/rare meat before.  If it is not really finely ground up it seems to sit in my stomach.  Is there any way to ease into this?

Thanks

Hey guys,

I am new to all this raw animal protein stuff.  I am aware of the typical food combining rules but am having a hard time coming up with meals.  I'm fine with raw eggs but they don't exactly seem to mix with a plate of vegetables.  Any tips for food combining or staple dishes you guys use?
