I tried two different sources of organic grass fed beef. One was ground beef, packaged in one of those small block packages. Another was a fresh cut from the Whole Foods butcher counter. Both 100% organic grass fed. And I have a friend locally who buys the same and eats it with no problems whatsoever. So I think it is my individual body, not the product. I will continue with chicken and see if I have any better luck in a few weeks or so with the red meat again!

Hi everyone... I’m new to this world. Previously a vegan, then raw vegan, then frutarian—who thankfully woke up from that deep sleep state where I believed those approaches to be “the way”.

I jumped off the vegan ship about 6 months ago, and working within a paleo format since. I recently (two weeks) began this raw journey, and I’m very perplexed!

This makes sense to my human nature. Eating raw flesh foods makes the most sense to me. I have been eating raw eggs, recently started raw milk, raw cheese, raw butter, and unheated honey.

I have had 3 attempts with organic, 100% grass fed raw beef, and all three occasions have sent me into an extreme anxiety state, full with shaking, racing thoughts, rapid heartbeat and a legitimate fear that I am about to have a heart attack. So! Needless to say, I am a bit hesitant moving forward... but I imagine there must be some explanation for this. I imagine that this group of experienced individuals will have some insight to lend. I’m looking forward to regenerating my health and reconnecting to the wonder that is nature!
