Magnesium, calcium, other minerals that may be missing.

Land animals seem to lacking in Mg and Ca, which are more important during development. From experience on rpd, did you run into mineral deficiency? Do you take supplements or edible clay?

[Brady]

I've been thinking about this also as I still working on my health.  I believe I am lacking in electrolytes and have been eating mainly raw mince Lamb (my favourite), Lambs liver & Sweet breads, bone marrow, egg yokes for some time though with no improvement.  I find this meal delightful and I really crave it but it just wipes me out for hours and leaves me extremely acidic.  So I have recently switched to eating fish and egg yokes and despite been less appealing I have noticed considerable improvement in energy, hydration and sleep.  Seafood is much richer in alkanising minerals than land animals, for example Halibut is an extremely rich source of Magnesium.

I also eat fruit (too much at present) in the morning to get some minerals and hydration.

I would be interested to hear what more experienced RPDs have to say though?

Brady, Im defincately not one of the more experienced rpders but do you eat the lamb, liver, sweat breads, marrow and egg yolk all at once? I find I do much better mono-eating. You may want to try it.

I found seafood to be a good mineral source too, especially shellfish.

If you aren't trying to stick to some zero carb plan then add in vegetables and fruits??  Both are pretty good sources of mag and calcium

[MoonStalkeR]

Vegetables do contain Mg and Ca. I'd be surprised if they will actually get absorbed in any good amount...

Brady, or anyone, what kind of fish is it that you like best?

I adore Swordfish.
I can take or leave most other fishes but go out of my way to buy a swordfish steak or two every other week.

[Ioanna]

thanks, i'm going to see what sources i have for fish around here.  i'll be sure to check out swordfish!

[MoonStalkeR]

You should check out tuna, salmon, oily fish, and shellfish. I used to eat a lot of prefrozen raw white fish like mahi mahi and haddock but it isn't appealing to me anymore.

Brady, or anyone, what kind of fish is it that you like best?

Wild Alaskan Sockeye Salmon is delicious but quite expensive, I also like oily fish like Mackeral and Sardines which are quite cheap.  I too love Swordfish and have ate quite a lot in the past however a recent Zyto session (Biofeedback) session showed an increase in Mercury levels in my body which I put down to my consumption of Swordfish, Tuna and Shellfish so I avoid them from now on.

I also find that I prefer my fish as fresh as possible as opposed to red meat which I like as "high" as possible.  I also like eating my fish cold from the fridge but prefer land animals at room temperature.  Does anyone else find this?

Yeah I've tried monoeating it does help but when it comes to red meat I am left fatigued regardless.

[goodsamaritan]

I have the same preference for super fresh fish.
But raw meat I like both freshly killed and also cold from the refrigerator.
The cold from the refrigerator thing I only recently liked after almost 2 years of raw paleo.
Old and high raw land animal meat is not something I have desired yet.

Hmm...How long have you been raw paleo? Have you tried high meat?

[Brady]

I've been RAF about 14 months (gave up Dairy about 5 months ago), yeah I love High Meat especially Lamb and Beef and generlly will not eat these meats fresh.

If you ask the instinctos, it is what your body needs now, so go on and on until your body's requests change.
