Ok, I will look for those cuts today. I chose Shank because it was cheapest.

Does anyone know if veal has to be grassfed? Or is it raised on mothers milk?

The veal at WF doesn't say gf, but it looks tender/fatty and is cheap bc it's local.

Ate about half pound of pretty raw grass fed beef shank. Seared for only about 1minutes total. Only a thin layer of brown/grey on the outside, everything else raw. It was soooo hard to chew.... I much prefer eating raw ground beef.
I ate it with raw eggs, butter, sliced lime, and some sauerkruat.

Hopefully i have positive results.

People don't only support local farmers because local farmers don't have everything on a year-round basis. Look at the topic of this post: apples and pears in the dead of winter. If you want an apple or pear right now(!), it is either imported or cold-storage, but how many people would go shopping where there was only fruit in season? Even CSAs in my area carry produce from their "partners" - certified organic producers in other parts of the world.
We could all do it if we make efforts to eat seasonally! Once I'm home this month I'm starting by only shopping at farmers market

Alberto, I too am struggling with gut/digestion/elimination issues.

One helpful thing I learned is to avoid spices, they can irritate the colon!

I've also learned to avoid cooked/processed foods, extravagant remedies, "miracle cures," and to keep things as simple paleo as possible.

News like this is unsettling and disturbing. We should all make efforts to eventually only support local farmers.

With only 18 days left in the regular season, 7 games, I'm going to try and tough it out.

My team currently trains together under a crossfit coach, doing team circuits/competitions. While fun, they put lots of strain on my body.
Going to ask our trainer to give me more of a specialized workout specific to my needs, so I can correct my neck,spine,hips ect... Restorative yoga is helping my knees ankles and feet so much, also lower back. 

I've started eating 1/2lb raw ground beef(seared for 30sec on ea side) with raw eggs, Kerry gold.
I'm only searing It because it's not organic. No issues so far. If I get my hands on organic I will try 100% raw.

How does everyone stay hydrated while traveling? Is there a way to purify tap water? could adding himilayan salt/lemon/baking soda reduce the harmful effects? or some type of clay?

I spend lots of time on the road traveling because of hockey. our team regularly has 5-15 hour bus trips. everyone drinks bottled water. I have a fill2Pure bottle but i dont notice much of a change.

Im also driving across the US soon, any tips on hydration?

Fruits and veggies are out as im trying to avoid fiber in my diet because of IBS problems.

Why not talk to a psychiatrist/therapist before quitting the team? Quitting could create new stress.

something to consider, i had not thought of doing that. Even though ive invested my whole life into hockey the cons are out weighing the pros. Its a difficult decision. My father is in town this weekend, and ill have to talk everything over with him.

Van,

its taken me awhile to figure it out, but i realize now a 100% raw paleo is the only path, and answer for a permanent fix.

I am most likely quitting my hockey team, and returning to california.

Raw sea food did not seem to digest so well for me. Hopefully i have better sucess with gf beef.

Maybe potato starch could help somewhat? Food for gut bacteria, thus improved digestion.

I began taking 4 tbsp of potato starch a day (about a week full now), and now seem to be able to handle somewhat larger amounts of plant stuff in general. And overall feeling better.

not very familiar with potato starch, mine as well try. Do i need to get a RAW version? is bobs red mill a good quality potato starch. How does it work/how do i use it?

A note of the laxative effect of coconut.

It depends on the individual, the amount eaten and the tolerance you build up to it.

If you have never eaten a whole coconut and one day eat an entire one, you may experience a heavy laxative effect. This effect diminishes after a while and you build up a tolerance to it. Much like Tom Hanks in castaway.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=doNk1gamdew

AVs followers swore by coconut cream, it helped the first day but hasn't since. The jars have different consistencies. The first one was more a liquid, the rest have been more creamy. I have more consistent  results with just regular kerrygold gold butter, and it's 5 times less expensive....

My stools seem to dry out if I eat too much fiber or not enough fat. I have to be very careful what I eat.

I've stayed clear of all spices for about a month now as I read they can worsen IBS.  Fresh ginger root is an exception, I've read it helps constipation sufferers.

My condition seemed to be getting better, at least one BM per day. Past two days it's returned to abdominal pain, bloated feeling, gas, constant gurgling sounds, and constipation.

Situation is getting so stressful I'm thinking of quitting my hockey season/job early and going home. I hate to do that to my team, but I'm not seeing any other options.

I'm really focusing on avoiding laxatives, and trying to build a stronger/healthier gut.
Nut formula definently set me pack in my progress, worst abdominal pain I've felt in awhile. I am removing myself from the PD Facebook page, their suggestions have caused ill effects, which they always swear is some sort of Detox.... The green apple/EVOO helped nicely, but it calls for too much raw honey, which I'm stopping.

Only a couple hours of eating AVs formula, I feel terrible..... I'm tired of listening to this man. Idk why he was held in such high regards. Never again will I try one of his bogus cure recipes.

Immediately cutting out all raw honey. Strictly for topical application, no need to ingest.

Small amounts of Fruits, raw meat, and eggs from now on.

Had a difficult day today. Work was busy and extremely stressful.

Wasn't able to have a BM despite abdominal pain and terrible gas.

Came across this article http://stomachbloating.net/peppermint-essential-oil-uses-for-constipation-and-bloating/

Right before bed Added a little frontier peppermint oil to AVs nut formula. Hopefully have success in the morning.

Coconut creme is just a source of raw fat. Just wondering if it's has a laxative effect.

I made a bulk order(12 15oz jars), and when I spoke to Original Living Coconut employee over the phone, he said it would naturally ferment in 5 days. He recommended I buy a version with honey and lime added to delay fermentation. He said the fermented coconut cream was still edible, but an unpleasant taste. I bought 12 unflavored jars because I didn't know what effects lime and honey would have on the cream.

Is coconut cream a laxative?

I received my shipment from Original living coconut, ate almost 15oz through out the day. A table spoon or two here and there. This morning  had very runny stools.

I assumed it was a safe raw fat source, I have a hard time believing raw butter or animal fats would have the same effect.

Good Samaritan. U might be able to answer this best.

When I was eating raw mackerel I couldn't bite through the skin. I was able to scrape everything off with my teeth. A thin clear layer was left over.
