Hello everyone,

I've experimented with different nutritional approaches to health, weight loss, muscle gain, and so forth for several years. Mostly these have all been low-carb approaches. Over the last few weeks, while researching an ideal diet for my dog, I came across the BARF diet (bones and raw food), which eventually led me to looking into raw meat consumption safety which interestingly then led me to posts about Aajonus Vonderplanitz and the primal diet. I was already familiar with paleo but not so much raw paleo.

I live in Brazil and have not yet had access to AV's books but I have already changed my diet based on what I have been researching online (some about AV as well as some others). 

Going through several threads in this forum has been quite helpful during this transition and has answered several questions. Now I decided to finally go from lurker to member!
