For now, I will continue to eat plenty of raw swordfish, as often as possible.
Science is determined by the number of studies favouring each particular side. When, as in this case, there are 1,000s of studies damning the consumption of cooked foods, including cooked meats, and very, very few studies showing benefits therefrom, then it is only logical and scientifically plausible to assume, for now, that raw foods are healthier.
Even if one believes in conspiracy-theories such as that almost all scientific studies are biased or are flawed, that still does not exclude the common argument in science that the side with the highest number of studies in its favour is the best one, for now. To take an obvious example, let's say, there are 500 studies which favour the pro-cooked-meat-advocates and 40,000 studies favouring the notion of heat-created toxins causing some harm(given the studies I have already seen, this seems a reasonable rough assumption re ratios, though not numbers). Then, if 95 percent of all studies are biased or flawed or corrupt in some way, then 5 percent of 500 means there are only 25 excellent, well-done studies favouring the pro-cooked-meat side of things, and 2,000 excellent, well-done studies favouring the notion that heat-created toxins, so that would still mean that the notion of heat-created toxins was far more likely to be correct. Now, one could pretend that absolutely all the studies favouring one side were a-ok, while absolutely all studies favouring the opposite side were totally flawed and corrupt(like Taubes tried to do but got heavily criticised for his fatal errors of assumption and his own personal bias) but this is physically impossible as human bias, flawed studies etc. appear all the time, favouring all kinds of different viewpoints, affecting all sides.
The info on AGEs is now mainstream:-

so anti-AGE diatribes by such as Chris Masterjohn are really just crackpot, fringe notions.
I thought about taking a class like that "principles of nutrition", but thought it would be an everyday struggle like that. I wish I could get a degree in Nutrition but there is nothing out there that I can find, that would be even close to support primal nutrition. Its like you would have to endure years of that to make someone believe in what you say. Logistics are can go ahead and die out, please.

No need to worry, high-meat is perfectly harmless.Did you read the article?
What are your guys experiences with a type of fat like this from a poorly treated animal? i have not tryed the fat yet, but i am kind of skeptical. Does fat store toxins/high omega 6, or is it only goodness stored in fat?? (excuse my noobness plz )
Canadian cows are grainfed their whole life so the fat taste really bad, the worst i've had. Same with bone marrow. Food tasting this bad cannot possibly be healthy. If you don't have a good source of fat, find a grocery store that sells NZ shoulder lamb chops, they have a good amount of delicious fat.
ya i ate some organic grainfed cows, it tastes the same as grocery shit. i dont even think organic makes a dif as i threw up after having fat from both. it was disgusting.I've never thrown up meat. I can definitely taste the difference between supermarket meat, and organic meat from a good butcher shop such as Cumbraes.
I guess raw liver could be not as soft but still easier to digest than cooked. Perhaps as you said, I'm making some erroneous assumptions. Yesterday I read an article by Mark Sisson citing a study that found that cooked egg protein is much more bioavailable than raw, and yet I'm certain that what happened to me last night with the raw egg would not have happened with a cooked one. Not only did it clear my stomach and rejuvenate me, I actually slept last night after a day of maybe 700-800 calories, most of it raw honey. No restless leg syndrome. The one egg was my only fat and protein. That's astonishing.
GCB is much more logical:
A NEW THEORETICAL MODEL OF VIRAL PHENOMENA
This article seems to state that it isn't healthy and that fruit isnt a good carb source.
I think that just stresses the importance of consuming some form of non fructose carbs, whether liver, or cooked tubers, or milk. And the importance of drinking a ton of water.
The person below me is utterly hopeless at drawing or painting.
We could take an informal survey like:
Is your daily work: MENTAL? or PHYSICAL?
Are you on ZC, VLC, LC, High Everything?
Article says brain consumes much carbs.
So it's more likely brain workers need more carbs?
You are mis-using the term "cause".
We already know what causes TB. It's called mycobacterium tuberculosis. That some immune systems are capable of fighting & killing it (or, instead, succumbing to it) is a function of the vitality of a given immune system.
AV did not say "cooked green vegetables are involved". He said cooked veggies cause TB. That is a claim I can easily dismiss. As to cooked foods, or veggies, or cooked veggies being involved - well, that is another matter. We already know that many things (including cooking food - especially when one burns it) can compromise an immune system, so that cooking is possible involved is not an assertion with which I dispute.
AV is a bright guy and certainly a ground-breaker, but he needs to be careful of how he uses words like "cause".
I used to be a fervent believer in AV's notion re germs until I got flu after 4 years on RPD. This ws not a case of detox as the symptoms were full-blown and I had got it from my brother. So, while I am sure a raw diet does help considerably against disease, I am understandably somewht sceptical that it gives us immunity to germs.
...including smoking tobacco or herbs...
A.J. is wrong.
I reckon SD is right, this is just a crazy Aajonism.
They degenerate and their degenerated bodies are perceived as toxic.But how is this degeneration different from the degeneration/decay of other meat?
I am not sure. If they are packed check the ingredients. If not, ask the butcher.
I think they do it to shrimp and scallops. Maybe clams and oysters too.
Since Coconut oil is recommended for dry scalp and hair. Would melting butter or animal fat and rubbing into hair work?
i had it accompanied with itchy thighs/arms. its a lack of vitamin A. eat lots of grassfed liver. there is a label for Vit A deficiancy http://www.whfoods.com/genpage.php?tname=nutrient&dbid=106
