So, I am on the primal diet after reading Aajonus Vonderplanitz' book 'We Want to Live'. Only been three  days but I am feeling very good. I now eat raw meats & fish, raw honey, and raw vegetable and fruit juices. And adding some cooked starch back into diet. I have not yet been able to source raw dairy products. Which brings me to the question do you guys personally feel raw dairy really is necessary for optimum health? I'm going to experiment with it of course but I'm in no rush to source some. And also what are fertile eggs? Aajonus mentioned them a few times in the book but I've never heard of them.

Hello, I am new to eating raw meats. I need to know if there are certain repercussions you should take when you first start eating raw meats; and if there are any 'rules' to eating raw meat/fish. All the meat I buy is local and grass-fed. I started eating raw beef liver and ground beef with no problems and I like how light it feels going through the digestive system. So I progressed to trying chicken hearts which didn't go too well. The next day after eating the raw chicken hearts I had a fever, migraine, coughed up blood and mucous. I had thought I just caught a flu or something so I had more chicken hearts after I was just getting over this and I instantly knew this was the initial perpetrator. Got same symptoms again but worse and was bedridden for about a day and a half. It was an absolutely miserable experience.

So does anyone know why this happened? And is there anything I should know before I proceed further into this diet?
