I have been on 60-80% raw paleoish diet for 5 years.

Nope - no drugs at all. No prescriptions of any kind.
-
I take no drugs, hormones, stimulants, relaxants, et al.
I take no nutritional supplements at all.
I have been eating raf for three years.
What's the lifestyle? No, I don't hunt, if that's what you mean.

Lifestyle is probably like:
- not using harmful personal care products like the usual commercial shampoo, soap, make up, rubbing alcohol, deodorants, insecticides in your home, not using stimulants like coffee or softdrinks...
- we're trying to define this as we go along.

Ooops - I forgot to answer the other questions.
It's hard to say how long I've followed this sort of dietary thing. I consciously increased my raw intake way back in 1991 or so. I've always eaten raw & extremely rare meats (even before the 90s and before I heard a fancy name for it). I probably wasn't what would be considered "high raw" (80%+ raw by calorie) until 2003 or so, though.
Most of what I eat now is raw, but I am paleo in the sense that I eat no traditional grains like wheat (no breads at all, though once in a blue moon I'll eat rice or raw corn), and no dairy or any kind. I eat fruits, veggies, & meats - the vast majority of it raw.
Lifestryle? No, I don't drink soda or coffee or use most traditional soaps or household cleaners.
I work out several times a week (mostly body weight exercises & cardio) and am self-employed (musician).
I grow my own veggies in my backyard organic garden. I drink on occasion (wine or hard liquors, not beers).
I embrace technology completely.
What are you trying to define? Paleo?

Yes, that's me. It's a shame that stuff is around. The residues on things we buy, et al (sigh). I'd say about 95% of my life, haven't the inclination in any way toward the list you started there.
