Diet drinks and weight loss don't necessarily go hand in had...

Use these 2 diet drinks and weight loss will happen... it's as simple as that.

I once had a job butchering beef. I would use razor sharp knives all day cutting the meat up. For some reason unknown to me, if I cut my hand I would hold it up and look at it and it would stop bleeding. The next day it would be healed.

That has never happened to me except while butchering thirty years ago. Cuts usually take a week to heal. There must have been something in the raw meat or blood.

I am from the Midwest United States where a lot of cattle are "finished" on grain and agricultural byproducts in feedlots. One of the problems is that the cattle are herded into pens and they stand on their shit for months not moving while they are fed grains which are as unnatural to their digestive systems as they are to ours. They have to be given antibiotics to keep them alive. The stench of the feedlots can be smelled for miles and is almost unbearable. The reason this is done is an economic one, the rancher or beef processor can get the meat to market faster and at less cost.

The cattle's muscles get soft and marbled with fat just like ours do when we lay on the couch all day eating doughnuts and potato chips. Another problem is that the fat they put on is the wrong kind for us. The fatty acids are deadly to our unaccustomed bodies. The same is true for chicken (and their eggs) and pork and any other animal.

We need to have some fat with the animal protein we eat or it can be toxic. But is needs to be good fats like those found in grass-fed animals and seafood (fish oil). When I eat raw meat I add flax seed oil for its high omega 3 content and take fish oil supplements. Please educate yourself about good fats versus bad fats.

Feedlot cattle also have a high danger of bacterial infections, which is why the beef industry has to make frequent recalls. Chickens and pigs are also raised in "meat factories" around here where they are crammed into buildings and fed grains, never seeing the light of day. The antibiotics they must be fed are producing resistant bacteria and viruses. When these make a jump to humans there will be a worldwide pandemic.

An interesting side note is that Europeans evolved with domesticated animals (recently) and became resistant to their diseases. When the Europeans colonized the New World they brought the diseases which killed off most of the indigenous human inhabitants.

i eat with my hand too, feels great!!

I'm interested in knowing how many people here got into raw paleo in spite of the fact that they had no major underlying health issues that they were trying to resolve.

I'd love to have raw milk but it is illegal in Scotland so is just unobtainable.

Good question.  I don't think so, b/c the jar says "raw edible portion."  Also I got on their website and it doesn't say anything about being pasteurized.  It says they are shucked, packaged, and shipped at 45 degrees F usually all on the same day.  The company is Ekone Oysters, at Willapa Bay.  www.ekoneoysters.com.  Still not sure if it's good to eat the insides.

in the upper paleolithic, before the development of large scale farming & herding, homo sapiens may have eaten mostly, if not exclusively, animal food
while it seems to be an established fact that homo erectus evolved from a forerunner common with the apes, which are eaters of plant matter, mostly, the cro-magnon had a brain larger than present day humans

1 piece of evidence is cave art

in the 60-70 caves he examined, leroi-gourhan found the following depictions:
610 horses (prototypically male acc. to him)
...

...
88 men

hah!
no avocado, coconut, pear, spinach, honey comb... shows up in the caves

I usually take a glass container with me each day filled to the brim with meat and fat. When I am hungry I will go to a park and sit down and eat. I have never had a problem. I think people would not believe someone was eating raw meat even if they saw what it was....it is just to scary and real for them. The only problem I would have is if the gestapo searched my bag...considering they harassed me for carrying water in glass bottles  : the last time I was searched.


I also like to eat this way because by the time I do eat, my food is nice and warm. When I get home and eat I never give it enough time to warm to room temperature.

Hi there Carnál!

Metallica's at "banned camp" so I doubt he'll be able to reply! 

Hi BoxCarGuy,

    I should have realized.  Metallica is a guest, not a member.  Of course he(/she) has no messaging here and has to rely on an outside different messenger.   I don't like Y! or AIM either.  I do use Skp sometimes.  Now I'm wondering if I should have posted in this discussion, or left well enough alone.  Thank you for telling me.
