This sight is on about cooked meat being easy to digest

Life is not fun; do we have to spend are life working out a healthy diet that works? The Bear say's:

Here are some SIMPLE rules (for a carnivore in a hostile social environment.)

You don’t need recipes, the food is too simple.

Only cook your food rare, eat plenty of fat, no salt, drink water.

SEVEN SIMPLE RULES FOR THE HUMAN CARNIVORE

1) Eat only from the animal world (eggs, fish, redmeat and fowl and some dairy are all animal sourced foods, i.e.: meat).

2) Eat nothing from the vegetable world whatsoever. (Very small amounts of flavourings such as garlic/chillies/spices/herbs which may be added, are not ‘food’).

3) On diary: avoid milk and yoghurt (heavy carbs- lactose), use only pure (not ‘thickened’- heavy) cream (read the label), cheese and unsalted butter.

4) Don’t cook your meat very much- just a little bit on the outside- for flavour- blood-rare or bleu. For this reason I advise against eating pork.

5) Eat liver and brains only very infrequently- they are full of carbs.

6) Be sure to have plenty of fat of animal origin at each meal and eat mostly of the fat until you feel you have had enough- you can eat more lean at this point if you like- calories are not important, nor is the number of meals/day. Vegetable oils are not good food.

7) You do not need any supplements of any kind. Drink a lot of water and do not add salt to anything.

That is all there is to it.

DO NOT obsess over what you eat, follow the rules and it will become second nature, and you will not have to think about it at all. What you eat is a social conditioning, most people will never alter their diet from what their mum fed them as babies, only those rare individuals who have a strong will and desire for a normal-sized, healthy body can do it. Even the grossly obese have trouble with my path. You may feel low on energy for a few days or weeks, but as soon as you keto-adapt to zero-carbs that will pass and your energy will be increased.

Maybe, you have never acquired a taste for it. I had some purple broccoli yesterday.

It's not all about taste, it's about nourishment, digestion, toxins, gas, your small and large in testins

...and it is winter in Switzerland!!!!

I made my self very ill eating raw vegan - believe me their is more to health than just posting down raw "material".

Vitamin C is only found in certain glands like adrenals, not in muscle meat.
i like broccoli, nothing  about it

You should read up on "the Bear" and check out Charles forum.

"The evidence all suggests that the way to avoid kidney and gall bladder diseases is to eat a diet composed mainly of animal protein and fat."

I've been changing things lately. I thought I would add some thoughts.

It's becoming clearer to me that 'diets' can be an obsession created when people are not dealing with some sort of trauma, whether it's a passing of a loved one, stress, doing a job they hate, not fulfilling a dream, following someone elses dream or even procrastination.

When I'm upset I tend to not deal with the problem and it comes out in physical symptoms like cramps/panic/candida/fatigue/obsessing/allergies etc . These symptoms get so bad they totally distract me from dealing with a problem. The symptoms do their job...
I'll swear to god that my issues are health related so as to not clean my house/avoid breaking down over someone passing away or avoid confrontation.

I'll do anything I can instead of actually dealing with what ever's troubling me.

But what about (from "How many carbs do you need)

The winner is an international professional athlete did 14km in 75 minutes which goes to show how tough the course was.

Obsession? Healthy? Why not have a look at Charles forum (his blog and Charles running journal)

I like the Idea of being able to run this type of event

Why, do you think you will be any happier for it? Or healthier...(dealing with a problem?)

I felt terrible during the race and craved carbs about half way through. I recovered very badly and could not think for about 20 minutes after the event. My brain had zero energy.

So now it's "the diet" when your body doesn't do what you expect and see how others make life worth living...

What about alkaline ionized water; for lots of energy http://www.ionlife.info/

I'm doing a low-carb/zero-sugar experiment.

I've cut out fruits and honey from my diet for the time being.
I will still be eating green leaves like heart of romaine and spinach, which have a small amount of carbs, but no sugar. Other than that, it's meat, fat, and organs.

I figure I'll try this out for a week or so, and see what I decide from there.
Tomorrow will be day three of zero-sugar.
Not bad so far. I feel fine, in fact today I had a very steady level of energy.
No cravings for carbs at all today, but had small cravings yesterday.

I thought you "needed" oranges "to go"? I was looking for oranges in the Swiss woods and fields; couldn't find any so I have to do with out 

Nicola

I don't view sweet fruits as bad, - for example, I may return from abroad and not be able to get hold of any grassfed meats so have to eat mostly fruits for a week, say - that's not the end of the world.

On Charles forum you get to know that on this forum people are way to extream .

I have runny stooles from raw meat; that is what comes out runny! Lex has talked about this too and his colon was o.k.

I can not hear this "detox" and cleanse any more; no animal does that! We need a diet that works...

Lex has been a good help; no silly talk !

Nicola

Well, when I've ate  my raw meat outside on the terrace in Italy, I  couldn't help but notice that the flies were far more attracted to the smell of my raw meats than to the smell of the cooked-foods that other people were eating, no matter how much seasoning etc. had been added.

Flies lay eggs on protein; perhaps the cooked-foods was just/more vegetation. Raw meat will attract flies - they smell blood!

Nicola

You have no idea - do you feed them goat muscle meat or other tough meat?

You always mention how wonderfull every thing works - you don't exercise, you eat a lot of fruit (what about insulin) and you think humans are always needing to detox with all kinds of gunk. Sorry, but it can get extreme - too much selfconfidence!

I can not and do not boast about diet, health or what ever; I can do my best... and not believe every word others say - words can be used to suit "the situation" one is in.

Nicola

I didn't know that self-employment had such stringent requirements in Switzerland! So one has to study for a business degree in order to be allowed to set up one's own company?

Yes, you can not just open a shop and sell cakes. After the official school years you have to do a "Lehre" for 3 - 4 year and then learn for the "Meisterprüfung"
