Thanks to all who informed me that grain-finished stuff is unacceptable. Sigh! Why would they do that!

There's a lot to learn and it looks like you are on your way. Don't give up!

I thought I learned everything about the ultimate diet--raw vegan!

Thanks to all again for the info and encouragement.

Tyler,  thank you.  Your former (unsuccessful) experience with so many diets gives me good hope that raw paleo diet must have merits. I will give it a try.

Was your cooked Paleolithic diet experience no good at all?

I have found marinated beef tastes quite alright.  I will up my intake of beef and see what happens. 

Tyler, Thanks for sharing your personal experience.  May I ask how soon your health problems started to heal after you began eating raw red meats? (I am trying to get more motivation to eat red meat I guess.)

KD, Thanks for your explanation.

So I am trying raw grass-fed beef. For the past three days I could only manage to swallow about one oz. each day. I am trying another method: I am marinating it with some lemon juice and spices right now; hopefully I will find some good recipe to help me adapt to the taste of raw beef. Taste change is possible, right?

BTW, will you guys say that lightly cooked red meat is injurious to health? Is raw fish better than lightly cooked red meat in terms of healing the body?

Dorothy, Thanks for your encouragement. I do hope my taste will change soon.
Concerning fish, I did contact one fish company last night—Copper River Seafoods. Following is their speedy email reply:

“All of the fish that goes through our process that gets frozen before leaving our site meets the HACCP criteria that you stated below and is parasite free. With that said, we cannot guarantee if the vendor maintains those same numbers once it hits their facility. Our fresh/frozen fish is intended to be cooked before consumption for that very reason. There are two solutions to guarantee that there are no parasites once the consumer gets the product home: The fish can be ran through a hard freeze again by following the criteria stated below or the fish can be cooked to the recommended temperature.”

So now I feel very good about buying frozen fish packages from this company. My fear of parasites is not just for health reasons. I just feel it is very yucky to have live worms inside my body!

I have been focused on mastering raw red meat and I have not yet have the courage to get to raw animal fat yet. What is suet exactly?   My dictionary told me that suet is the fat around kidneys. Does it taste different from the white fat inside and around grass-fed beef pieces sold at grocers like Whole Foods?

If you've never had raw animal fat straight - you're in for a treat (at least if you are like me). I rarely want meat - but I sure want fat! Marrow and suet are quite amazing.
Don't forget fatty fish like salmon. I love that stuff.
If you are willing to eat dairy make your own raw fermented butter and you will think you've gone to heaven.
Mmmmmmmm. Fat!

Dorothy, Thanks for responding. I have read much in this forum.  A number of people said suet tastes like wax! Marrow gets better rating. Maybe one day I will try marrow. Is there any parasite warning about marrow?
I have eaten salmon sashimi for years. Right now I eat wild caught alaskan salmon daily. But a little research on wild salmon worries me. This site advises against wild salmon:
http://www.beyondsalmon.com/2006/10/parasites-in-fish-part-2-anisakis-and.html

Also:
"...the parasite destruction guarantee is accomplished by ‘freezing and storing seafood at -4°F (-20°C) or below for 7 days (total time), or freezing at -31°F (-35°C) or below until solid and storing at -31°F (-35°C) or below for 15 hours, or freezing at -31°F (-35°C) or below until solid and storing at -4°F (-20°C) or below for 24 hours’ which is sufficient to kill parasites."

Do you know if the frozen wild-caught alaskan salmon bought in the grocers has been frozen at this temperature? I think I may try to find out from the fish company. Also, do you know what is the lowest temperature our home freezer can get?

I love dairy.  But I have read a number of less-than-positive comments on dairy in this forum. Otherwise I would just rely upon raw dairy.

    I did AV style raw fresh made coconut cream and salmon on this diet way before I got to marrow, brain, backfat and suet too.

Hi, RawZi. So what is the difference between doing coconut cream/salmon and doing marrow/brain etc. in your experience?

I wouldn't advise making it your one and only source of raw animal fat.

Tyler, what is the reason that fat from raw dairy is not to be used as the main source of fat?
BTW, I also take in a good quantity of coconut oil (good source of saturated fat) and raw salmon.

Raw marrow, raw suet, raw tongue, raw brains. Otherwise raw dairy(non-palaeo , though). But raw fat exists also in raw muscle-meats, especially in the fattier kind such as raw mutton.

May I revive this old thread and ask why dairy cream is not an optimal sourse of fat in Paleo diet? It contains little, if any, of the dairy sugar and dairy protein which some people are sensitive to.

Cherimoya, Thank you for your response.  I tried all kinds of raw seafood at good Chinese/Japanese restaurants a number of times. It turned out I only like salmon. When I buy salmon, I only buy wild caught Alaskan salmon.

Thanks RawZi.

I don't know if the fish I bought is GE. On the package it says "Certified Sustainable Seafood MSC...This product comes from a fishery which has been certified to the Marine Stewardship Council's environmental standard for a well-manged and sustainable fishery."
I have been eating a very-high-raw vegen diet for a few years. It did not bring me optimal health. So I have added raw dairy these past couple of months.   Now I am trying raw fish.

I very very occasionally ate raw salmon at Chinese/Japanese restaurants. The raw salmon there was very tasty but cost $60 a meal (someone else was paying).  I wish I knew where to buy the salmon served at those good restaurants. The restaurant-salmon tastes better than the salmon I bought this time.

RawZi, will you please direct me to the post where you talked about your son's milk diet? Thanks.

Many thanks to all who have replied. Your input gives me food for thought.

The author of the milk diet booklet did witness/gather a large number of impressive cases of healing. That is why I am considering doing the milk diet to improve my health. However, he wrote this booklet in 1923. So some of his reasoning could be faulty. That is why I am asking for input. Now I think green juice may be a good supplement while doing this milk diet.

Again, if anyone knows of reasons against raw cheese, please let me know.
