General Discussion / Re: Vitamin D and tanning

I'm curious how this worked out for you, SileIndigo.  I'm looking into this myself, but I haven't found information on what UVA/UVB ratio is ideal.  The highest UVB ratio I've been able to find near me is 10%.

Omnivorous Raw Paleo Diet / Recommended Fruits On A Mostly Raw Animal Diet?
« on: February 22, 2012, 01:50:54 am »
I'm a couple weeks into RPD, eating mostly raw beef muscle meats/fat/organs along with some raw salmon or squid every 5 days or so.  For the first month or two on this diet I'd like to be able to have an occasional serving of fruit (every 3 days or so) before I try going zero carb.

 Looking through the forum I see a lot of disagreement on what are considered good fruits for this diet, so I'm wondering what you personally have found works best for you on this diet.

Thanks

Thanks for the responses.  I get my cuts of beef/suet/marrow in the typical rectangular containers wrapped in plastic, I go through these in 3 or 4 days.   Would you suggest leaving these unopened in the fridge before opening and eating or airing them out in the fridge?

If you have a source for local grass-fed I highly suggest you make use of it. The shipping costs can be significant otherwise and it's always better to support your local farmers and local businesses - and then you can buy small amounts at a time to make sure you like the food before committing to a big box of something.

I definitely will, they do get in local 100% grass fed beef organ meat every week (I just have to act fast when it comes in) and it's reasonably priced so it's a great source.  With that said, I don't know how long I could do a strictly beef diet and sashimi is too expensive to eat constantly, so I'll be making a Slanker's order within the next couple weeks to add lamb/bison.  What do you mean by "mix" daily?

Yeah, keep it in a freezer and then thaw it, if you buy in bulk. These days, I usually only buy every week so just leave it in the fridge not the freezer for that time.

You suggest leaving it in the original Slanker's packaging before thawing? 

Also, I can get local grass fed and grass finished ground beef that comes in the typical ground beef containers with the plastic wrap.  I see a lot of mentions of exposing meat to open air around the forum, would you recommend I open the packaging in this case for refrigerated meat I plan on eating within the next 5 days?

Thanks for the help , I appreciate it.

Most RPDers seem to think that grain-finished meat is almost as bad as fully grain-fed meat. There's studies on eatwild.com which seem to bear this out, as I recall(?).

Get the organ-mix from Slanker's like Lex Rooker does. Raw organ-meats have a much higher nutrient-content than raw muscle-meats and contain special extras like coenzyme q10 etc.

Thanks. 

As far as storage, would you suggest keeping the organ meats I order in whatever container/packaging Slanker's ships it to me in and keeping it in a freezer before thawing and eating?  Or a different method?  From what I've read through on the forum there seems to be differing views on this, I'm curious as to your take.

Omnivorous Raw Paleo Diet / Question About Lamb Organs

Hello, I am new to RPD.  I plan on making a large order from Slanker's within the week but for now I have access to grass fed, grain finished frozen lamb organs. 

Being new to organ meats as a whole I was curious as to if experienced RPDers think it is worth buying.
