my premonitions of things to come for him have changed. Dreams, visions, feelings - all have stopped.
..
The allergies - well - worse come to worse we'll move to Hawaii.
I saw it in the stores over twenty years ago. I was vegan so I didn't even look at the price, which I probably would have had a trying time paying for anyway. Sharks are amazing animals. Should be good. I heard alligator or crock blood to be fantastic too. I'm not into snake oil though, so Idk. Said son may. He seems to know everything about nutritional stuff, even though he eats "ethically" instead, like I was, fearing the meat, but not for parasites but for the soul or something. I'll ask him if he knows about shark oil tonight.
If you want a computer or lots of clothes in HI you may need climate control, watch out! They'll grow staining mold, if it rains all day every day hard. Does be have mold allergies?

Yes. First he was fruitarian and looked like dried out skinny death. Then he was sproutarian and looked more lively and had a better aura. This was only pictures at the time, I hadn't seen him in person.

« on: November 10, 2011, 01:36:22 am »4 maids? You know GS, the more i read about your life in the phillipines with your incredible fresh food market ...and about the gatorade rice porridge and chicken broth.
I'm the only raw paleo person here.
My 10 year old son I'm treating of grave illness is on raw paleo + other modalities. (he's the strong one now... and we have an agreement for 6 months minimum)
Last night we got word that one of my nephews who stayed over the weekend who also got sick had a stool exam and it turned out to be: E. Coli.
So there is one clue.
Make the rest besides you and your ten year old real vegan for a while. I was vegan decades, and sometimes the people around me got stomach viruses, but I never did. They weren't vegan either, .. well .. one was. But that one too when eating at a table where all the others ate meat wouldn't catch anything even if all the rest did. If they don't have cooked meat waste in their system, it could help somewhat. And why chicken broth? If you're doing broth, red meat fats cook much more stably and is more grounding. Kind of like avoiding fruit when wanting to settle the stomach a bit. Papaya, avocado and calamansi may be alright though in that light. Can the maids or cooks or you make a kelp lemonade instead of gatorade? You could even add cooked rice or barley. Or make it with garlic instead of lemon. Cooked pear/pineapple has been known to work for the stomachs of cooked eaters too, especially mixed with the blended barley/rice. Find one thing, stick with it, relax .. that is best I've seen, one thing that will work.

« on: November 10, 2011, 12:39:26 am »I eat quite a lot of red meat and I feel that the more meat I eat(in general) the calmer I am. I have a hard time sourcing good quality white meat so I never tried not eating red meat in any given week. Might try that see how it effect my moods. Too much high glycemic foods make me hyperirritable and(in case of grains) rather aggressive.
Raw red meat allows a perfectly very deep healing sleep for me. Grains got me irritable.

I don't think so, but raw white meat stablizes my mood when need be, not to mention fats lol again

I'm eating grass finished beef shank meat and marrow and chicken liver and Wee Bee honey with capping and shallot.
I think I'd live on brains. I wonder if anyone ever dieted on brains exclusively. I've gotten a good amount of excellent grass fed raw fresh marrow from a halal butcher. They had lots of best fat trim available too (sheep legs hanging etc). True, seems like halal people don't eat meat's fat.
They slaughter a couple of days a week and have garbage bags of fat trimmings , heads, bones, and other scraps that normally go to the dump. It a Muslim family farm that sells almost exclusively to other Muslim families,and there isn't much market for fat trimmings, bone marrow among their costumers so I may be able to get it all for free.

I don't choose fear. I was afraid of parasites. I chose to eat meat, even if it meant parasites. It was a lot more than dying at stake. Dying I can handle. I apologize for the confusion. Live was not the only important word there. Try reason.

The difference is that on cooked food and dairy I had 4 to 5 months a year a cold (and even sometimes a stinking one while living in a tropical country, which tend to show that colds are detox) while now I very seldom catch one.
Obese people are generally very resistant to cold since their under-skin
No fat in the skin and we can't tolerate heat or cold.
I ate cooked egg and cooked meat and I got seven to eight month colds every year till in a four month period a doctor gave me two injections and a lodge member drilled close to ten holes into my teeth and filled them with mercury amalgam and I was in a house fire suffered from a great deal of smoke inhalation and went untreated. I got a bunch of symptoms at the close of those four months, but they were all ignored and the doctor proclaimed that one of the injections cured me of my colds and that I was now well because of it.

Yes, a timy bit, not every day. Broccoli, cauliflower, celery, mushrooms, beets, scallion, cabbage, lettuce everything organic. Wasn't bored at all of the food, I was feeling better than ever before in many ways, so I think that made up for "lack of variety".
Lack of support and such was my first movement away.
My first raw animal food I put in my mouth was butter. About to do that and knowing it was only my first step to raw meat I felt like I was jumping off one of the highest cliffs to a bottomless pit with only faith in the healthier attributes to the diet.

Lex was probably older than I am now when he found raw paleo. He had also been through all those known diets correcting what he could from an incredibly sick infancy/childhood etc. Zero carb raw seems to only improve him, unlike the medical treatments all along and the diets.

« on: November 09, 2011, 04:48:29 am »you have always been better in the cold than than the heat didn't you? Was that also true when you were a sproutarian? Would you say that there was a certain amount of fat that changed your ability to tolerate the cold significantly?
No, not as Sproutarian. I was very sensitive to cold then, but any amount of heat fine.
Absolutely! If practically all I eat is raw fat, an all raw diet, I can tolerate just about any temperature. I still as all above prefer cold.
Do you think that you are able to tolerate hot weather now that you have been eating raw fat for awhile too ..?
Yes, I know. Fat helps me tolerate. Doesn't change my preference though from what I see.
When I eat well I seem to be able to tolerate both cold and heat better.
Me too. But cold is very nice. Heat? Everything is beautiful, but heat is not as nice.
Point is, that people could still survive all that without any fire, they just require shelters, furs etc.
I was just explaining that in person today, as my partner keeps saying (not word for word) every human needs indoor heating installed. Had to agree with me when I finally said maybe government wants us nice and cozy with air conditioning and heating so we sit down and take in our tv programming. How are you going to convince an adult of your programming that cold is impossible while they are having real experience in a snow cave year after year?

« on: November 09, 2011, 03:46:17 am »But living outdoors through winter would necessitate survival training.... except maybe for Zi! LOL
I think other things in my life prepared me like survival training, so I need less survival training now. I never said I spent a whole cold winter outdoors, just that I was thinking of doing it this winter.
In my view most people who have problems with warm climates just eat TOO much food. That's simply
When I was passing out from the heat I was veg and eating almost exclusively fully vine ripened not been refrigerated very local fruit (not much) and reverse osmosis water. I was getting so worn out that I tried coffee (I've never been a coffee person or one for hot drinks to get an effect), but it didn't wake me up. My tsc level was very low no matter what at the time, I'm not sure about the rest. I think my adrenals and my pancreas were affected (or got low blood sugar level) a lot then. I had some symptoms of advanced adrenal disease, but didn't know that's what they were and didn't get it checked out. Of course most people said I looked so healthy. I was young.

« on: November 09, 2011, 03:26:16 am »I have one friend who's been vegetarian and 99$ vegan his whole life, and just a few months ago while getting acupuncture he woke up to the reality that he was really sick from B12 deficiency. Now he says he wants to try fish, though he hasn't done it yet.
I would say try raw pasture raised un-chilled eggs first, then pasture raised raw not been frozen liver - before trying fish. Fish worked for me before liver (but after eggs and cultured cream and unheated honey), but as a child I ate meat and everything. Someone raised whole life 99% vegan 100% veg, I don't think fish of for as a first food, given my observations and experience. I don't mean to deter your friend, I just hope to support safety.
Think of babies. They can eat chopped beef or turkey first food, egg yolks, liver, never heard of fish as the first food. They have delicate systems, like others who have no foundation yet in same foods.

« on: November 09, 2011, 03:20:02 am »And this is the reason I stopped coming here the last few days. I just now thought about reading up on things of interest and I stumbled upon your reply.
First of all, I did not know that frying stable saturated fats is bad. I was told on the Primal Blueprint forums that frying animal fats is the safest way of heating up fats.
I hope you continue here, or wherever is best. I had a wake-up call too; because my path comes from long time vegan, and I didn't expect I was supposed to give up all of my vegan being or voice to be here. But I like this forum. I think it's one of the best on the net. I've participated in Mark's Daily Apple and I like it and I'm still a member, but I like this one better. I, like you, didn't know the differences between frying, boiling etc before being in this forum. I learned though, and am grateful. I thought they were all unhealthy for me, and did none. Since, I have tried making bone broths. Turns out they're not so bad as broiling. Still, not my thing. There were some members here, some stayed, who low temp heated fats to eat.
Take care,
RawZi

« on: November 08, 2011, 12:31:37 pm »what kind of animal fats do you usually prefer? I guess that the most saturated animal fats (like bison backfat) are the working best to achieve good body isolation as described in your post..?
May I ask you how many years you are now living on a raw paleo ..
Lately the best fat I've been eating most of is grass finished beef marrow not having been frozen. I love bison back-fat, but I find it too difficult to get. I eat free range raw not been frozen chicken fat, raw local home made not been frozen Jersey cultured cream and butter, raw level four not been frozen pork belly, whatever I can get! I eat some raw not been frozen fatty lamb. I eat some raw not been frozen liver, turns out that has fat, I eat it mostly from chickens now. I eat whole pastured unwashed not been cooled eggs. I don't eat much suet ever. I find it a little dry.
I started RVAFD almost six years now. I'm not completely paleo. I have been completely AV style pd, and like how that works a lot. How about you?

« on: November 08, 2011, 12:25:32 pm »WOW! Your body seems to be really HOT! I guess all the snow within a radius of three miles around your sleeping place melted off...
I find or make a spot. I sit against something, maybe a wall, I don't lay actually in the snow like GCBs son. I wear good denim pants. I try to concentrate on keeping my heat within me when going to sleep, maybe pull my arms from my sleeves. But yes, I generate heat, unless I'm sick. I think it's natural. I think anyone would generate enough heat in the situation, any healthy adult.
Mosquito bites are really no issue on a fully raw diet, ...
Right. Eating this diet it's easy to stay calm. Mosquitoes don't like to bite calm people. Yes, that too, I don't get itchy bumps when eating these foods that don't offend.
.. massive amounts of insects. Tropical mountains are the perfect place in my 'world' (which is an illusion, please don't forget
Yes, I had found higher up there were less and no mosquitoes.

« on: November 08, 2011, 08:23:12 am »Sorry Zi - that was a typo. I knew exactly what you meant. Fingers not working so well it seems today. I've heard you talk about how bad temperature control is for you several times before. I don't like it either generally, but I don't live alone. If it were up to me I might have some heat on the coldest nights here, but other than that I would much prefer not to have central air and the windows open. Maybe if I could live that way and eat enough fat I would have similar experiences to you and not be thinking about moving some place without the allergens, air filters and windows closed.
I don't live alone either. That's why I need diet. The other members of my household who have hands do things like turn on the climate control and light fireplaces when I'm sleeping, so I wake up dry and bleeding if I don't have enough fat. It's always been that way except when I controlled my home and had no climate control devices, just open windows. The coldest day of the year is the most important time for outdoor air for me, as the indoor air is more artificial then.
