I had been chained to emotional eating and grew up in an obese family. These past 30 days has absolutely transformed the way I think and feel about food. I'm no longer reach out to food for support or understanding. Isn't it amazing how much positive can come from simply changing what you consume?!
Ty, always with the warm fuzzy comments.. welcome Laece, how did you hear about eating raw paleo?It's just that some people have come here, thinking this is a cooked-palaeodiet forum. That's all.
Same with me, only I had 45 years of eating disorder vanish the first day I ate a raw paleo diet. I made a 2 week commitment in April, then another 30 days, now I'm not even counting. I've learned so much from this forum, broken so many fear-of-raw barriers.
Welcome!

I actually started out raw. Then added eggs and meat once or twice a week after the first week but found I didn't like that addition.
I prefer raw. I know I've got so much to learn...but that's why I'm here--right?! I'm still new to this and excited to learn more.
heh heh..might want to leave out the blood for the first timers..no one really is consuming much of that stuff here anyway
- raw animals including raw animal internal organs and raw fat, raw blood, raw meat - including aquatic creatures and others
- raw organic / wild fruit in season
- raw organic vegetables

I think that is mostly because blood is so hard to get, and so much more taboo.
Welcome!
I didn't know any paleo forum or raw paleo diet. But out of desperation, and strong believe in rawsome food, I did this experience on my 2 yrs old boy 1st. I see the change within 2/3 days. Then I waited months and I saw how he improved infront of my eyes. My son taught me raw paleo. Then I tried myself and got the result. Now my husband is on raw animal diet for the past 12 months almost. I did not force my husband, but he saw the huge change on me and he decided to eat raw animal food by one night. Now we all eat raw animal at home and we are much more happier.
You tested out this diet, which is believed by most of the world to be one that would cause sickness unto death, upon your child first?I see my family (uncle, aunt...etc. ) eats fried chicken or pizza or candies in front of him and he just looks at them but never asks. But at the same time if he is hungry and one of them eating a fresh fruit, he asks for that fresh fruit, not any cooked things. So, I guess he must be developing a sense. I never have any plans to put him those poisonous public schools. Probably Montesories or other type of schooling is good for him. He's now four. But planning to put him in school after five.
Why would you not test it out on yourself first to make sure it was safe before feeding something considered so deathly to your child?
Mother's instinct! I get that feeling by reading an old book that beef juice is very healthy for sick people. My child was ill and had blood deficiency. After hearing that beef juice, I was too much into making raw beef juice and all I was doing from internet searching. Because, my son was raw vegan from his birth and then raw vegetarian. I just don't want him to give any cooked food and cooking meat is the only thing that prevents me to give him meat and make him just raw vegetarian . That means I only used to give him raw eggs, raw vegetables juice and fresh fruit smoothies. In one point I trust raw meat more than anything else and feed my child that. After I introduced him raw meat, he asked for raw meat even more then his favorite orange juice. So even his 1st try, he likes raw meat so much that he asked for it instead of freshly queezed orange juice. After that I get more curious about raw meat and discover this raw paleo forum.
Other than that, how are you going to deal with your child going to school, if he goes to a public school, and preventing him from eating any of the school food or candy that he will come across? I know when I was in elementary school, teachers often gave candy as a reward for getting answers correct, and they sold pizza once a week.. once getting into middle and high school, then they sold pizza and soda every single day. If all your friends and everyone else around you is eating it everyday, you're probably going to eat it too. Although, I wonder if growing up on a raw diet would cause him to dislike the taste of cooked foods and junk foods and soda and candy?
Or will you not be sending him to public school?
