This brings up the subject of who y'all are willing to share your eating habits with. Do you tell only your most trusted friends, your health-care professionals or anyone where the subject comes up? I read in Lex's journal that although his teeth improved he wouldn't tell his dentist why. Have any members had bad results at work when it got out that they eat raw paleo? Has anyone broken off an important relationship over it? What are some of the most common reactions?
Personally, I leak it out once in a while, but it's not a good idea.
As far as health care professionals.... you will be potentially called a number of things by people who don't have a clue what they are talking about. They will warn you that "you gonna die if you're not careful" without explaining careful
.
If you are paid to change the world or feel a calling from God to do same, then phone up the local radio station and have at it. You will hear it all. If you have children you will probably hear pushback.
Bacteria and the cooking to kill them is holy and indisputable to people.
My GF (and I) experienced a huge improvement in her vision from sungazing. However she did not mention it to her eye Doc. The eye Doc comes from a paradyme that says you never look at the sun and to tell her would have been too much. Also the Doc makes a living off of poor eyesight, not the curing of. I went to an eye doc once and he informed me that exercising the eyes was laughable.
Maybe if you experienced a huge improvement in health etc from the diet, (which a lot seem to) then you might consider telling a select few, but be forewarned you may spend time explaining the unexplainable. You will be potentially grilled (pun intended) as if you murdered someone. One friend of ours nearly drove us nuts asking questions and then told others so then more questions. ITSUPTOYOU
When I was a vege I had one fellow at a bar with a few beer in him give me a rough ride and looked like he wanted to fight when he somehow figured out I was a vege. People can be strange and there's no way of knowing how they will react. So I keep it to myself is my guide.
