Wow what a head trip that would be

I actually found that, after going rawpalaeo and cutting out the raw dairy,  I would experience a flu-like episode once every 2 to 4 months, lasting from 2 to 7 days, with the severity of the symptoms diminishing each time until they stopped completely after 2.5(?) years or so. These symptoms included minor things like a runny nose; considerable, incapacitating but pleasant fatigue during the day; and a hot forehead; but never all the symptoms associated with the flu. I guess these were genuine detox. I only otherwise experienced such once after I ate edible, sundried french green clay, and the day after eating cooked foods(unless I ate some raw foods or high-meat as well).
Interesting. Maybe that was an acclimatizing period to the new diet. I also had a period of probably 6-8 months where my digestion was getting used to the raw meat, vege juices, etc., and then I was fine.

The above mentioned 4 or more cups of coffee a day. That said, I remember that US coffee is very weak compared to Italian etc., so much so that my aged American friend would drink a dozen cups of coffee a day while travelling around California.
I have read that American coffee has a much higher level of allowable mycotoxins in it than Euro coffee. Lower standards for importation in the US.

Mycotoxins are a result of beans being shipped on the ocean. The dampness encourages the mould that becomes the toxins. Apparently that is the cause of the hangover from coffee and stomach troubles that it gives me and a lot of PPL.

Sounds like PPL who drink coffee are likely to die early, which is not to say that the coffee is a factor only that coffee appeals to those who die early for whatever reason... IMO

.....Cravings are oftentimes important and should be considered. For example, I used to get cravings for cooked chicken, until I started having raw chicken. .....
I agree about the cravings but cannot imagine eating raw chicken. We tried and it awful.

I don't have access to raw cheese anymore but when we did we could polish off a round of it in a couple of weeks with nothing but good stuff to say. We also used to polish off quite a bit of honey but have backed off on the quantity these days. (Funnily enough we have beehives now and eat less honey) Both combined would be awesome.

BTW our honey is awesome because of course it is the ultimate in local.

However add salt and pasteurization and we have every problem in the book from indigestion, terrible sleep with a hangover, constipation, gas weight gain.

Eating heated honey is just a bad idea with bad symptoms.

Re: Aajonus, he was either very right or very wrong IMO. We ate his diet and were fine because we are fine with raw dairy, but some PPL do very badly and he would foolishly say that they were imagining the problems.

His idea was that a cold or flu was a good thing and to expect and welcome one periodically which of course is silly.

Love the smell of the stuff but it is like roto-router to me. One cup and off to the can in semi pain in about 1/2 hour. Always been that way. It gives me stomach pains also.

2 bad because it smells so awesome...

Probably is, just like the current state of the US economy/dollar.

There are others:-

Ain't that the truth.

Here is a youtube video of a similiar individualist anarchist who lived  in Vienna until he died:-

Everyone thought him strange, but, truth is, his message was actually quite sane, just believe in Nature etc.
Wish I could speak his language.

Bras apparently stop the lymph glands from getting rid of toxins, thus resulting in higher rates of breast-cancer etc.:-

We are currently cursed with truly idiotic social norms forcing us to be unhealthy in some way. I, for example, live in a European country where people just LOVE central heating, particularly the women, and so loathe me opening any windows in the summer. God, I wish I could live in a truly civilised nation like the US with decent air-conditioning. I always remember the wonderful feeling I got from experiencing the routine ice-cold arctic air-conditioning in Los Angeles airport all those years ago. It should be standard issue in all other hot climates. Cold air invigorates people, forcing them to work at a steadier rate - hot climates, otherwise, merely encourage people to become lazy and sluggish and have constant siestas during the hottest part of the day, judging from my own experiences in Spain, Kenya and similiar hot countries. Now, OK, if people want to close windows then fine, but then it should be socially acceptable for men like me(or women) to walk around in public with their top half completely naked in summer so as to avoid sweating. And what is this  Western nonsense about men wearing ties? They are a constrictive feeling like a hangman's noose, make men feel too hot, and are a nuisance to keep ironed etc.

I always remember statuesque  African and SE Asian women going around in very old photographs wearing nothing on top  above a grass skirt. Unfortunately, because of leering Western eyes on their breasts, they were forced to put on stinky T-shirts to avoid embarassment. Silly, really.
Amen,
The guy who invented ties should be taken out in a field in a snowstorm, drawn and quartered. BTW I watched the film John Adams, (about the American lawyer involved with the American revolution) last night and there was a segment in it where they tarred and feathered a British representative of the King. Pretty gruesome, but that is what should have been done to the joker that invented ties.

There was a thread on bras a long time ago with some very good responses. I recall that the main poster was a girl who doesn't post here anymore. She was an actress as I recall... cinna  http://www.rawpaleodietforum.com/off-topic/breasts-especially-for-the-women-(and-the-women-you-love)/msg45541/#msg45541
