Primal Diet / Re: New Aajonus DVD available
« on: August 04, 2009, 03:56:42 am »
I agree that the DVD is quite expensive. It has a lot of really good background information on how and why the diet works and why bacteria, viruses and parasites are your friends. However, it is NOT a DVD that teaches you how to prepare food or how to follow the diet exactly. This has been laid out mostly in his 2nd book and he does not repeat it here. Jill Fox's raw food video is much better for this.
I'd recommend the AV DVDs for people new or sceptical of the primal diet and of course for fans of AV. If you're already doing fine with your raw paleo diet you won't necessarily need this DVD.
I'll post more about the DVDs after watching them a 2nd time.

Cheers,

Primal Diet / Re: Raw milk and smelly frequent farting
« on: August 04, 2009, 03:46:32 am »
In defense of the "goodsamaritan", this forum is about AV's primal diet which includes raw milk, cream and cheese. It is a sub-forum of the paleo forum because it is different. Milk by itself is not dangerous for everyone and can be curing for some people. The argument that the people in the stone age did not have it is of limited value. They never had to deal with the toxic load we have to deal with. They were not shot with poisonous vaccines from an early age on. Many of us need to find ways to heal and for some of us that might include "unnatural things" like sucking on a cow's udder (well, not literally but almost). Weston Price found many native societies living healthily while including milk products. I doubt any were Asian though, as many Asians do not seem to have the mutation that let's them produce lactase into adulthood.

How did you ever come to consider cow milk consumption as a option to be tested (again and again) and report in this forum whose name is Raw Paleo Forum that your symptoms were probably detox? Animals domestication is typically neolithic and their milk consumption by humans  is even modern for many populations, especially in S.-E. Asia and Africa.

But thank you anyway, your experience confirms (if it were needed !) that animal milk consumption can be troublesome and is dangerous. -d

Primal Diet / Lemon/lime juice and sensitive teeth
« on: August 03, 2009, 04:49:28 am »
Hi,

There are several recipes that recommend to have fish or chicken incubated with lemon or lime juice in the fridge for a few hours and up to 24 hours. My problem is that the enamel on my teeth is not perfect anymore on several spots and eating these foods high in acid hurts my teeth. What would you recommend to neutralize the acid? I though about raw cream but I don't have access to that. Any and all recommendations are highly welcome (other than "don't use lemon/lime juice").

Best,
Westley

Primal Diet / My solution // Re: Raw milk and smelly frequent farting
« on: August 03, 2009, 04:29:01 am »
Hi,
I am having the same problem with raw milk if I drink it by itself. I am also having gallbladder issues from time to time which might be connected to problems with the fat in raw milk. And I notice that I do not fart from pasteurized and homogenized milk which I shall never touch again :-).
When I blend raw milk with eggs the farting problem goes mostly away. It goes away completely if I mix milk+eggs+raw honey. I believe that the lecithin in the eggs helps emulsify and the digest the fat in the milk. The honey with its enzymes probably aids further with the digestion. Overall this makes for a great post-workout drink.

Cheers,
Westley
