AboutRawPalaeoGuy 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:-

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 I'm confused about the Raw Paleo Diet. How do you prepare raw meat to be eaten? (beef/chicken) and raw fish as well.. Do you eat your eggs raw as well? Also what diet would you think is the most beneficial for dental health?
Answer Well, you don't really need to prepare most raw foods. In almost all cases, I just use a sharp meat-knife to cut the meats up into pieces small enough to fit into my mouth, and that's about it.
As regards other types of preparation, there's a small minority of RAFers(Raw-Animal-Foodists) who follow Sally Fallon's advice to freeze all raw meats for at least 14 days before consumption. However, most RAFers find in the end that freezing only damages the meat, and doesn't benefit anyone re health, so prefer not to do this, and just eat the raw meats as they buy them.
A number of RAFers, especially beginners to this sort of diet, like to try out various raw-animal-food recipes such as ceviche(raw fish marinated in freshly-squeezed juice from a lemon), beef carpaccio, sashimi, steak tartare(the Web has dozens of recipes online covering such raw-meat dishes) etc.. Here's a couple of sites where you can find such recipes:-

I also eat the eggs raw. Some RPDers are concerned about the the avidin in egg-whites and just eat the raw egg-yolk but this is only a problem if you're eating vast amounts of (unfertilised) raw eggs each day(24, acording to one source).
As regards the diet to follow re best dental health, that would be a raw version of the Palaeolithic Diet. The trouble with dairy, even raw dairy(which is a common part of some raw-animal-food diets), is that studies have shown that the countries with the highest rate of dairy-consumption also had the highest rates of osteoporosis and general poor bone-health - so I can't see how dairy could be good for teeth,especially since my own teeth only became stronger once I cut out the raw dairy from my diet.
