I’m battling a stomach ache since Thursday

by

I detected this stomach ache begin last Thursday early morning.  It started out as dull, not entirely debilitating, enough for me to go to work in my office and see a few customers.

I was hoping the pain would go away, but by Saturday I really wasn’t feeling well.  I had paused my taking of humaworm dewormer.

I remember wednesday evening my dinner was raw beef and raw honey.  It was the first time I tried this combination.  I read about it from a fellow raw foodist.  Maybe the raw honey didn’t do too well on me?  Maybe I wasn’t digesting it well?  It irritated me?

My poop on Saturday morning was gray, not good.  Maybe my liver is blocked?

This morning I did an egg yolk liver flush.  2 fertilized egg yolks, 1 lemon, 1 tablespoon of ghee (clarified butter).  This gave some relief, but not enough.

I trawled the internet, I saw earth clinic pushing again apple cider vinegar.  As I write this I’m sipping 2 cups of water with 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar and 1/4 teaspoon of sea salt.

I’m hoping for an immediate cessation of this pain.  It’s not in my stomach, it is below my stomach, probably my intestines, large or small, I don’t really know.

Wife experiences intense migraine, sees spots and suspects aneurysm

by

Last Friday morning at breakfast my wife was complaining of an intense headache and seeing spots.  She says she suspects aneurysm.  I don’t know why she suspects aneurysm, but it sounded like an emergency to me.

Good thing we had my newly made batch of cayenne tincture made last January 2007.  The tincture is new, it is still in the vodka bottles, maturing.  Mature or not, it was time to use it.

So my wife took a teaspoon and ingested some cayenne tincture.  She prepared water with ice and raw honey as a chaser.

In a few minutes her vision spots faded away and her headache had subsided.  But it was to early to say so she did not drive to work last Friday.  She worked at home.

Please keep cayenne tinctures at home.  Use it for emergencies.  You never know when you will need it.  Was my wife really feeling the symptoms of aneurysm?  We may never know what it really was, she is well today and that is all that matters.

How I sticked to my raw paleolithic diet at my brother’s wedding

by

I’m so happy for my brother and his wife they finally got married.  Yes, the same brother who almost died of extreme psoriasis 2 years ago as documented in www.eczemacure.info got married yesterday.  The reception was a buffet lunch.  I sat at the vip table to be served by waiters.  This is how I kept my raw paleolithic diet despite being in a social occassion.

I scanned the food early on.  I found ox tongue.  That would represent a cooked paleolithic food.  Then I saw waiters frying blue marlin soaked in soy sauce and a separate lemon butter sauce.  The raw blue marlin would serve as a raw paleolithic meal.  Blue marlin is a big wild ocean fish.  So as not to freak out my seat mates, I had the waiter sear each side of the sliced blue marline for 5 seconds each side.  I got 3 big slices and took it to my table in front of my seat.  Reserved for me.  A few minutes later all the fish had been fried / cauterized to the liking of normal folk.

So there I was at the VIP table first accepting some soup from the waiter, tasting 1 spoonful only for graces, then waving away the next waves of food being offered, just accepting some ox tongue, then digging in to my main meal which was lightly seared blue marlin fish.  No tummy aches, no feeling bad due to toxins.  The meal was good enough.

Being in a social occassion does not mean I have to sacrifice myself to conform with the herd.  You can make choices.  If someone asks, tell them you are on a special diet for health reasons.  They won’t mind.

As a side note, I got my kids their lunch and I got them plain rice, ox tongue and blue marlin.  That was what I judged as paleolithic enough.  My kids are still rice addicts but I didn’t give them much rice this time.

Artificial vitamins and processed supplements are no match for real raw fresh food

by

There was an opinion made regarding massive dosages of vitamins or supplements needed to activate healing in humans. In my personal and family experience, artificial vitamins do not work.

It is real raw fresh food that works, really fast, and you can feel it working.

For example, if one is omega 3 deficient, a bottle full of omega 3 supplements is no match to eating fresh raw ocean tuna / salmon / blue marlin sashimi.  This happened when my brother was deathly sick and shivering in 30 degrees celcius tropical humid weather.  No amount of omega 3 fish oil supplements could make a dent on his condition.  It only took one pound of fresh raw tuna at lunch time to give him real raw fish oil and other nutrition to warm him up in just one day.

Another example, no amount of zinc supplements in whatever form will match the effectiveness of fresh raw oysters.  I’ve tried taking month long zinc supplements.  Felt absolutely no difference.  I eat fresh raw oysters a for lunch for some 3 straight days and I see and feel healing all over my body, my skin, my eyes.

Another example, lecithin… raw fertilized egg yolks will move your liver and even flush your liver.  I tried supplementing with powdered lecithin and add it to water.  No difference whatsoever.  But when I eat raw fertilized eggs, it gives you energy, it moves your liver, and with lemon juice and waiting time of 3 hours from your last meal plus a tablespoon of butter and your liver flushes cleanly.

Real raw food works. And works absolutely great. Sometimes I tell people real raw food is magical.  Real raw food is what we should be eating.  We have just been so corrupted with lousy cooked food and have accepted poor health as normal.

Instinctive craving for cashews, raisins, and wonderful results with oysters

by

I have eaten full meals with raw oysters only last Saturday evening, Sunday lunch, Tuesday Lunch.  Each from different sources.  The effects seem magically immediate.  I wake up well rested, with clarity, my vision is getting better – noticeably because of that negative spot beginning to heal immediately on my right eye.  My skin scabs, scratches an minor inflammations from those old sand fly bites are rapidly subsiding.  Seems those sand fly bites took a lot out  of my immune system and raw oysters were just what I needed with the highest source of zinc from any food.

Instinctively, I also sought raisins and cashew nuts.  They seem delicious together.  I’m checking the internet and see that raisins are a good source of boron.  Must be good for a lot of things.  Cashews are a good source of calcium and magnesium.

I’m on a good roll following instincts… so this morning i felt like getting some goat skin kinilaw.  Maybe it will do good too.

I don’t feel like eating oysters or beef today, or any meat today.  Follow instincts and see where this takes me.

Update:

I changed my mind and bought oysters again and had oysters for lunch.  But this time I used dipped the oysters in lemon and had some salt with the oysters.  I stuffed myself with oysters for lunch and stuffed myself with oysters for dinner.

I began my 2009 deworming using Humaworm.com

by

This is my 3rd straight year to do deworming.  I am alternating between humaworm.com and barefoot herbalist dewormer.  This 30 day deworming will be using humaworm.com.  I began my first dose on Febuary 8, 2009.  Prior to that I first used a single dose of Dr. Tam’s miracle tea to cleanse my colon.  Make sure the dead worms have an exit point.

This afternoon I felt the familiar signs of the dewormer working, some itching under my butt.  Hmmm…. feels like worms.  I do have to remember to take the humaworm 30 minutes before meals.

I am hopeful this year.  I hope this is a breakthrough year.  This deworming comes at the same time as my high zinc diet and I’m still on raw paleo diet.  I expect tremendous results.  Really.  After that palawan infestation of the possible protozoans via the sand fly bites, I expect those to be eradicated.

The anti-raw foodists will say I need parasite cleansing since I eat raw animal food often.  Let’s see.

In a few days I will begin giving my children their humaworm.  The 2 boys will have their humaworm too.

We had pepper steak with beef stock and red wine this evening

by

This evening is part of our attempt to rid ourselves of the dreaded monotony of soy sauce.  I noticed the other week that our cook was making soy sauce based meals 5 times a week.  That just bothers me.  My children are eating that junk.  While I’m all raw and condiment free, they get the bad condiment soy sauce.

Our cook’s repertoire is limited as she cannot use tomatoes so tomato sauce based dishes are out of the question.  We have banned night shades from our diet.  So all she has left is soy sauce.  So I have to resort to guiding our cook to cook other ways and means.

Last weekend I invested in a stock pot.  I invested in beef marrow bones and a hoof and we made some beef stock.  We boiled it for 10 hours using our new charcoal cooker.  And we bought a big sack of charcoal from Batangas, charcoal from hard wood, long burning.

Now that we had stock, last weekend we also passed by the indian grocery and bought a bunch of different spices.  This evening I had our cook read of on Sally Fallon’s Nourishing Traditions recipe for pepper steak.  I had bought several kilos of prime sirloin and I brought out a bottle of red wine.  This recipe required 2 cups of beef stock and we did have beef stock.

The beef pepper steak was a hit with the children.  The beef was overcooked.  Everything was overcooked from my point of view because I like my beef raw, freshly killed.  The kids loved it.  My wife loved it.  So it must be good.  I had to eat it and eat with my kids as well.  Argghhhh… well cooked beef… ah, the sacrifices of being a father.  I don’t have to eat it next time.  Next time I will get my raw beef and just pour the pepper steak sauce on it.

The kids liked it and there is always a next time, let’s cook it rare next time.
