Primal Diet / Re: Frozen Meat
« on: January 23, 2012, 02:24:49 am »
Hello everyone.
I have a very important bit of personal experience I would like to share. My diet I would describe as a WAPF Diet. But, when I eat meat I would say its 50/50 split Raw/Cooked. I am a 25 year old student. I would just like to start off by saying FROZEN MEAT IS SH!T. Everything that is said about the nutrition diminishing properties of freezing food is true. It's a long story so in a nut shell, I bought my meat from an organic farmer that I really liked (because I knew his farm was in a really isolated and healthy place) for the longest time, but his meat was frozen. Rarely I would eat some fresh meat, but for the most part (98%) it was frozen. By some freak stroke of luck, I was forced to eat fresh meat for a extended period (frozen bison-> fresh lamb). My girlishly long hair became volumous, shiny, and sooo touch-ably healthy (and I rarely use shampoo or conditioner). I felt sooo strong and healthy, and just plain happy and great etc. (only variable changed was the frozen to fresh). As a result I will defiantly be purchasing as much of my meat fresh from now on. I still have to eat some frozen meat(fish, because I'm Albertan, and allow) and I am OK with that until I find a fresh alternative. As a side note, im not sure how freezing changes the meat, however, it would make sense that frozen meat would not be that healthy. We, as a species, don't really have experience of eating frozen stored meat. Even, from what I know, the Intuits dry their meat and store it, or eat it really fresh. They may have froze it once and a while as a method of breaking it down but most of the time I hear their eating habits are to gorge on really fresh food. Never the less freezing meat is a habit that really unique to the most resent half century.
Experiment for yourselves everyone best of luck with your diets!
