Don't want to muddy the discussion, but thought it would help to point out that lex_rooker seems to have done ok eating <10% organ meat and the rest mince/ground beef and fat, so I don't think it's that clear cut that you need so much variety.
It's a bit confusing to say 'many people found they recovered faster' as how many people are we talking about in total and it's all guesswork/anecdotal.
I really appreciate Lex's journal and what he does as a service for all of us. It's good to have a raw / cooked zero carb benchmark like Lex.
- Lex today is 60 ?
- Lex doesn't do exercises and just does his clock skills
- Lex needs to drink lots of plain water, like 4 liters a day.
- Lex does his single food staple with pet food for his organs and his raw meat muscle ground beef... he likes things simple.
The question is, will the same work for me? How can I do better? Can I do better?
I personally listen to my body about what food to eat. And although beef is my staple, there are times I get sick of it and look for something else. Like fish, or oysters, or shrimp or even chicken... funny why a few weeks ago I actually craved raw chicken.
Aajonus Vonderplanitz in his book says different animal meats are good for different things. Of course, it's obvious they are.
Taste is important as when you are eating condiment free, you get to the true taste of food.
It's a feedback mechanism. I feel if I havent had a food for a long time and I need it, it just tastes better.
In 2009 I went oyster binging and blue marlin binging.
I'm wondering about my recent chicken dreaming. 3 meals of organic raw chicken was enough to fill my dreams.
