My Family Health Blog

My wife and I have been evaluating our children and for the past number of years they have been growing on cooked rice, cooked and raw vegetables, raw fruit and some cooked fish does not seem to be working for them. Why do I say this? They’re smaller than their cousins. Well of course the parents of those cousins are much bigger than us in the first place.  But my 6 year old has some tooth decay and crowding teeth.  Not a good sign.

Now that I’m raw, the menu is getting more raw as the days go by. The children have tried seared beef (raw inside), raw milk, raw egg, raw tuna, raw salmon, , raw dilis, raw tangigue, more raw fruits, more raw vegetables… It’s time I looked at the Paleolithic Diet, the Wai Diet and Weston A Price studies about successful and healthy people. One thing we lack is fat. Raw fat. I ordered raw butter which is ready by Thursday.

I love the feel of the shift coming. It is time I took on lessening the rice from their meals and putting more paleolithic meat on the table. You should have seen my little carnivorous children lap up the seared / raw bloody beef for the first time. I think they liked it much more than raw salmon or raw tuna. Any new raw thing lights up their eyes. Raw organic cow’s milk they had for the first time this morning.

My wife seems to be agreeing with this direction. Tomorrow I hope our cook is back.

I’d like to explore cow tongue, cow bone marrow and bone broth, cow liver… but fresh organic goats are always easier to come by.

I want the kids to try raw goat with vinegar, you know, kinilaw goat. Goat in Manila is always good. Goat is absolutely organic, grass fed, all the time, and freshly killed in the morning or on the spot. I would really like some seared or raw goat liver. But they always sell it with the innards to make soup. I know what I’ll do… I will separate the raw liver from the soup. Put it in the blender and into a bowl. When the soup is served hot, the raw liver is scooped with a serving spoon directly in the soup. Yummy fresh and nutritious. This sounds great just reading this post.

For those who need to know, we are going in the direction of the raw / cooked paleolithic diet. (I’m staying raw, the kids need transitioning so they will eat cooked stuff).   Paleolithic diet is like some fruits + animals.  It is the time before agriculture.  When agriculture came, humans became sickly, short and ugly.  We already banned bread a long time ago.  Recently we banned nightshades: tomatoes, potatoes, eggplants, bell peppers. What will be markedly lessened on the menu will be grains such as rice, peanuts, pasta, pancit. We will be increasing animal fat intake, the good fats, the filling fats, the healing fats.   Oh yes there are healing arts that use raw animal meat and raw animal fats.  In this case we will be healing and growing.

Interesting post at that of course is correct / right. Being right won’t make you popular. Hmmm… somehow yes I know that. I try to find the truth and am satisfied by it I want to tell everybody but nobody wants it. Nobody appreciates it.

I’m one of those few people who stick around mentors who like being right and yes I submit to them because I learn something from them. But I see many more people who don’t like my teachers simply because my teachers insist on being right. That’s what teachers are for. And that is why I’m attracted to them.

I like the health gurus, the authors, the healers… they have to be right… most of the time… because truth, only with truth do you get healing results.

I see most people are stuck in a popularity contest because that is the way commerce goes. It is just business. Money changing hands, money money money. And because hardly anybody is interested in truth, people become diseased, people die. Of course it is too late… but you were popular.

So we attend parties, socialize, mingle, be nice to one another without discuss anything really substantial. How boring.

Maybe that is why I’m a tech guy. An engineer. A computer geek. A hobby healer. A father. Hey, if the computations are WRONG, that thing aint running, that structure aint standing, the sick won’t be healing.

My father in law seems to have it all figured out. He shuts his mouth. He lets his writing do the talking.

I’d better learn to be a politician and a PR consultant. Learn how to deliver what is right to be able to teach people. That is the hope of the world. Be taught the truth in palatable form. The truth in a way that people will like to hear, learn and be healed. Maybe that should be my next goal in life.

How to be right and be popular at the same time.

I have a theory regarding the reason the american indian diabetic in the www.rawfor30days.com program quit. He said so himself and we should accept his words at face value. He said “I’m just about ready to cross over”, meaning, I feel like dying on this diet. “I’m just not used to eating like this.”

Rather his body makeup, his genes, his whole physique is not meant to be vegan. Veganism does not work on everyone. You can’t make an eskimo a vegan and expect him to be healthy. Just as you can’t make all american indians vegans!

I’ve read that american indian ancestors thrived in the american plains taking care of bison and hunting other animals. American indians ate quite a lot of raw fresh meat. When the white men came and slaughtered the bison, the indians had to preserve the dead meat as jerky or some other form, but this was less nutritious and the indians lost strength.

Carol Alt says her doctor did some profiling with her to determine how much animal meat she needs in her diet. I would think the american indian in the raw for 30 days program would have been cured of his diabetes if the raw meat and raw fats approach was used on him. Of course the producers and the tree of life center in arizona has no expertise on raw meat and raw fats.

So I say to you raw foodists to open your mind to adjusting your ways. Yes we need raw foods to heal. But raw food does not just mean purely fruits or purely vegetables or purely animal sources. See what works for you. Listen to your body. Follow your taste buds. If it tastes great raw, and you love it, eat it until you get your fill.

We don’t eat out anymore.  But our food bill is astronomical.  All this raw food exploration is expensive.  I know it doesn’t have to be when we stabilize on it.  But right now exploring, going around, experimenting is expensive.

Saturdays, buying organic vegetables and buying top quality fruits.  Every other day, buying more top quality fruits.  Every 3 days some top quality animal produce like fresh raw beef, fresh raw fish, fresh raw milk, fresh raw eggs.

Sure, rice and some vegetable tops like kamote tops are cheap.  But they are not the ideal human foods.  From a cooked foods point of view they are good enough.  But good enough is not my goal.

I’m looking at healing and looking good in every square centimeter of skin all over my body.  Flawless if you will.

Look.  Zero medical bills for me.  Zero vitamin bills.  Zero supplement bills.  Whatever for?  I buy the top quality fresh raw organic foods already.

I got a tip that bananas are really healthy.  Maybe I should just increase my banana intake and save more money.  Or better, I get healthier and I get better in my web development business so I earn more money and can purchase a wider variety of healthy raw foods.
