Title: Constipation or better absorption when eating High Meat
Post by: Dingeman on January 17, 2019, 04:41:14 am
Hey everyone.

When I eat high meat and raw meat or organs exclusively, I sometimes go for days without stool.
I don't feel constipated or anything, but when I eat any processed food/cooked food I have to take a shit immediately.

Does anyone know what could be happening in my body? is the bacteria from the high meat kept in the intestines for longer or something?

Perfectly normal.Raw animal foods produce very little stools.High-meat is raw meat already predigested by bacteria so should lead to almost no stools at all if exclusively eaten and nothing else. As regards cooked foods, they always produce bigger stools as they get poorly digested and contain toxins etc.

It's different though. When I eat exclusively raw meat I have 1 stool every morning. When I eat just a tiny bit of high meat I don't have a bowel movement for up to 3-5 days.

Pretty strange. It should be quite the opposite.
Probably you are eating less amount of fat when doing the high meat? There should be other factors. Try to eliminate most of the variables.

I didn't supplement fat but I got plenty from extra fatty ground beef that my butcher makes. I could try adding more fat to see what happens. I did however supplement fat once and I had the same reaction. The only variable seems to be high meat.

Are you eating the same volume of food? Could it be that eating high meat makes you eat a smaller amount of food overall?

Also, how many times has this happened?

If anything, I am eating more volumes of food.

It happens every time, so far I think that it has something to do with absorbing more nutrients (or any, finally)

Same happens to me only with butter, the body just sucks it all up.
