I don't think raw fruits and raw vegetables are "bad" per se, I just don't think they should be consumed in large quantities without any raw animal foods.
joy why does there have to be a source of carbs that is better? why cant the answer be that the lack of carbs is better. its such an american idea that there always has to be a better option of something that doesnt really work, like chemically laden low fat this and carb free that food subsitutes. sometimes to heal and for health we have to take an element away from the equation.
Advanced Glycation End products refer to glucose+protein , and what happens to it. There is no source of that nasty stuff in any fat or its component EFAs that I know of.
So when I saw in the list that butter, which has no glucose or anything else to glycate is high in AGEs, I assumed that this is junk science.
I would look at starchy raw root crops as staples.Now I recall RPD allows raw root crops.
Joy, you need to compare 100 calories of fruit to 100 calories of fat. Apples are about 95% water. This will show you that the difference in AGEs is not that large.
As far as aging and fat go, just look at Doug Graham and Durian Rider.
Are you confusing me with someone else?
Also, haven't you been eating a lot of grainfed meat this last year, and cooked food as well?
Don't the Masai tribesmen age rapidly?Will someone reply to this question?
DG does age behond his age. DR seems OK?
As far as aging and fat go, just look at Doug Graham and Durian Rider.
joy, broth IS cooked, but there are supposedly ways you can make "raw broth" you can search for those on the forum. i liken it to drinking tea. i have read a lot that with low carb diets its best to get plenty of liquids but to not dilute ones electrolytes, this is why i suggest making a delicious broth seasoned with salty sea vegetables.
things like dandelion tea is a really great source of potassium, healing to the kidneys, which some medicinal teachings say indicate their health on the forehead.
Joy, as regards to wrinkles and aging. I wonder if you've lost any excess weight while eating paleo... If so the weight/fat will also have come off of the face as well, and contribute to the skin showing existing wrinkles. Many women and men as they age really look older in the face if they should lose weight.
On that list, the dairy products have the most AGEs.
But I'm astonished that avocados have quite some (1577) . I suspect that avocados from South Africa and Israel are irradiated and I never buy them. It could perhaps be a reason for the presence of these AGEs in them.
As for raw cashews (2723), raw pumpkin seeds (1853) and raw sunflower seeds (2510) I wonder if the ones tested were really raw because commercial ones are likely to have been heated, especially cashew nuts which are systematically hot (flame) shelled . Commercial olives (1670) are processed.
While animal foods often have higher AGE content by mass, they're also far more calorie dense than plant foods. I wonder if you calculated AGE content for plant foods versus animal foods by bioavailable calorie if the difference would remain as stark?
And Geoff's comments are smart regarding whether the animal was raised on a healthy diet versus a diet that causes a system-wide inflammatory response (as with grain feeding ruminants), so I'm not sure how heavily to weight the animal food numbers noted above.
Now, for the fats perspective, I would recommend eating unprocessed fats only. Extracted oils, even when cold-extracted, are not a whole food. In addition, I would advise against following guidelines set by the US government and espoused by organizations such as the American Heart Association, the American Institute for Cancer Research, and the American Diabetes Association. A full explanation of my reasoning can be found in the writings of Gary Taubes.Quite a few people on this forum say cocaonut oil is good though. I know coconut oil/cream is very stable even at high temperature.
joy are you properly hydrated? do you get enough trace minerals? do you drink broth? wrinkly forehead is more likely due to these factors and also that you are not getting enough saturated fats if you are sticking to vegan raw paleo.......try egg yolks, raw cream or butter, or raw cuts of fat from grassfed/patured animals if you can. also try gelatin in your broth to add complimentary amino acids, dandelion root tea also helps with proper hydration. i am certain you will see a huge improvement in your skin tone.
Actually, tuna is increasingly farmed.
Our alimentary instinct limits the amount of fat we can eat and regulates it properly according to our individual and momentary needs.
Most beach sand is partially made of tiny pieces of shells (clamshells, etc.), in addition to the tiny bits of rock. Some beach sand also contains other useful minerals, depending on the type of rock that the sand is made from.
Mostly, yes. Some of the minerals in sand are absorbable, and will dissolve in your stomach acid, like calcium. Most of said is just quartz, though, which passes through you unaffected.
Yes. It's kind of gritty, but it won't harm you. I try to avoid eating it, just because I don't like the texture, but it's very safe.
The sand won't harm you. You can swallow it.
I recommend seafoods for minerals, especially shellfish like scallops, oysters, and clams.
