Also: trying to avoid stress can be stressful. Example: worrying about environmental toxins when you live in a city.
I'm guessing that the stress quotient of not worrying about something is a mere fraction of the stress quotient of not worrying about anything at all.
Application:
- AGES toxins from eating cooked food in a social situation = 2 "I'm-going-crazy" dollars
- Emotional toxins from worrying about "food issues" in social situations when you intend to eat raw = 186.8 "I'm-going-crazy" dollars.
Hakuna matata.
There is a bit of a chicken and egg dichotomy when considering..... Is much stress caused by living in a toxic world? or is the external toxic world, created by the internal stress of a toxic human precondition?
It just depends. The real damage for most people comes from grains, poor-quality meats, nasty preservatives, and heavily-fried foods.
I will say that it becomes more and more important, after many years, to get good variety. Sometimes it's better to choose a lower-quality food source, temporarily, just to get some variety.
I don't do well with vitamin A supplementation, but I do well with vitamin D. Your results may vary.
I'm a sceptic as regards vitamin-/mineral-supplementation. They never worked for me at all. I would recommend your looking at this website to avoid any possible issues in the future:-

Where are you getting your vitamin A and D?
Which foods? How much sun?
Only on my wife buddy. That is what marriage is good for!
I do never cheat. Don't like to cheat myself, i'm actually very convinced about raw diet.
Haven't had social meals for more than a year. Ha... Last social meal i brought my raw meat and didn't give a fuck about what others think.
Huge problems I see with science and any "higher" education is the narrow mindedness and specification of disciplines and lack of real world, field experience, I saw this in university and government agricultural labs, you see this all the time in science. People do not understand and are not being taugt to attune themselves to the dynamic interconnected of our life experience because they are taught in facilities and by faculty that shut down our precious intuition, our guide for all sensing and all "knowing". So at best we can attempt to understand this all through cultural bias and inadequate language.
Gee whiz, where to start. I was on a pre-med track while doing my undergrad work, so took biology, chemistry, genetics, biochemistry, anatomy & physiology, parasitology, etc. Ended up specializing in ecology and evolution though, and went on to get a masters in environmental science (lots of environmental chemistry and toxicology courses) as well as a second masters in environmental policy. My PhD is in natural resources, most of my coursework was actually in economics and energy systems.
Depending on how exactly you define a 'science' class, I might have taken lots of them, or lots and lots of them.
Arguing? I don't get that comment, aren't we discussing and exchanging info? asking questions...isn't this what this forum is about?
here's another one, who's to say the deer/animals are going for the salt, or going for trace minerals which would be expected in a sea bed deposit high in salt?
Then there's the argument that salt deposits are inorganic, just like eating rock dust.
