Welcoming Committee / Unavailable Grass-fed Meat

« on: November 19, 2009, 02:56:54 am »

I'm in Dubai and it's almost impossible right now to find any grass-fed meat. The main issue here is that the climate is such that we import everything. And there is pretty much very low demand for anything organic, free-range, etc. Hopefully this will change in the next year (I've heard some extra shops are opening of this sort). What do I do until then? Stick with raw fish until better comes around? Do other people here eat solely raw fish?

BTW, as I started including steady raw fish into my otherwise raw vegan diet, my bowel movements went from once a day to 2-3 times. Pretty encouraging but why do you think this is occurring?

General Discussion / Any primals from Dubai?

Wondering if I can connect with anyone who eats this way and lives in Dubai or the UAE.

Welcoming Committee / 811 Raw Foodist with doubts...

« on: November 12, 2009, 02:55:38 am »

Hi guys,

I've been on 811 low-fat-high-carb raw vegan for a month and dropped the ball today because the craving to eat meat (or whatever the underlying reason for the craving was...perhaps fat or higher levels of protein) was too strong.

I'm having doubts. Perhaps feeling good came from not eating grains, perhaps it was not eating gluten in specific. Perhaps it was not eating cooked foods as well.

Anyway, I want these dark circles to go away, to regain some strength (I've become really skinny this past month), and get to health.

One question I have is on eating raw meat. Is the idea for the most part that 'raw' paleo is the best way to go? And, also, I just got out of the hospital a few days ago from the worst case of food poisoning I have ever experienced (I idiotically ate some unrefigerated spinach) and I'm worried about eating raw meat. The internet is covered with warnings about not eating raw meat. If I do eat it, what's the way to go to not get food poisoned? From a butcher or can I still get it from a decent supermarket?

Help me get straight on this guys.

Appreciate it,
Amir

P.S. is soymilk and soy protein powder okay?
