About RawPalaeoGuy
Expertise
I can answer most questions on Raw Animal Food Diets such as the Primal Diet, an organic, raw-meat-based diet and a number of similiar all-raw or partially raw Paleolithic diets, such as the Instincto, Weston-Price, Neanderthin, Paleo and Stefansson Diets. Can also offer advice on how to resist social pressure to eat cooked foods etc. For further info on Raw-Animal-Food diets, feel free to browse through this website:- http://www.rawpaleodiet.com/

Experience
I have been 8 years on a 99%+ raw version of the Palaeolithic Diet and experienced numerous health benefits as a result, being fully recovered from my previous symptoms from my cooked-food days. My own individualised raw, paleolithic diet routine is mostly based on Aajonus Vonderplanitz's Primal Diet(ie 99% raw, usage of "high-meat",no processed supplements, using primarily naturally-reared, organic or wild sources of raw foods) but, for personal reasons, I have also been, to some extent, influenced by ideas from:- Instincto(ie:- taste/instinct,no raw dairy/no raw veggie juice), Weston-Price(eg: preferring grassfed meat to grainfed meat, incorporating a wide variety of raw organ-meats into my diet along with the usual muscle-meats, and Vilhjalmur Stefansson(high-fat diet, pretty high proportion of (raw) animal food), but also eating some raw carbohydrates such as raw organic/wild fruit/veg/honeycomb etc.). I'm also a firm believer in the feast-and-famine idea (ie Intermittent Fasting) as regards boosting one's energy levels, and giving my body a rest from constant digestion.

Question
Thank you - you actually helped me alot. I'll try "light" high meat first, I wanted to do it anyway  - now my motivations is bigger :) then with time I'll go more hardcore with it
I'll also cut off raw butter completely - it seems to not make me any good and AV is wrong. I'm gonna have to change it to some good quality olive oil - I know it's not the same but seems like I don't have an access to good organic gress-fed animal fat.
thank you once again!

Answer
Hmm, I don't generally recommend raw vegetable-oils. So many people develop problems with them over time, whether in the form of raw coconut-oil, olive-oil etc.Keep on looking around for grassfed animal fats. Farms, and to a lesser extent, semi-organic farmers' markets are best to buy from.There's usually a grassfed and/or organic food directory in every country where one can find farm contact-details etc.

One guy I know, who's doing an unusual zero-carb variation of rawpalaeo, stated that when he couldn't get hold of decent grassfed meats, he would eat grainfed meats but would supplement with vast amounts of (low-quality) cod-liver-oil supplements to make up for the omega-3s missing from the grainfed meats. I would personally go in for the high-quality raw cod-liver oil, but the other guy claims that that still wouldn't be enough in terms of making up for the missing Omega-3s.


HTH,
RPG.
