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.

Expert: RawPalaeoGuy - 3/9/2008

Question
I have chronic bacterial vaginosis for over 10 years.  I have tried just about everything and I can't get rid of it.  I have looked at acid/alkaline diet.  This diet is not practical for me.  I won't eat most of it.  As well as it has to be affordable.  I would like to know what diet that you think that would be the best for me?  I would love to know what you think

Answer
The usual recommendation re bacterial vaginosis(from alternative-health point of view) is to use antibaterial herbs(ie Tea Tree Oil
Olive Leaf Extract Oil of Wild Oregano Colloidal Silver) to kill off the bad bacteria - after that you're supposed to add probiotic supplements/bacteria-rich yogurts etc.  to replenish the area with good bacteria. The conventional medicine-approach is to use vaginal metronidazole gel.


Re diets:- I would suggest that you first try the above methods. If that fails(or you've already thought of that), you might consider trying a different diet. You might first consider trying a cooked-palaeo diet or a Weston-Price diet. If that fails, then a raw-animal-food diet is the best option, though people tend to take time to adjust to such a diet. If you're interested in a raw-animal-food diet, I would suggest that you join and have a look at the archives of the various Yahoo groups in my signature-line below, as this will answer most of your questions re RAF diets(one single e-mail is just too short to go into the intricate details of RAF diets).
