My children prefer raw beef liver versus half cooked liver

by

Yesterday I had our cook prepare half cooked beef liver steaks for my children as part of my push for the tooth decay cure for my 7 year old boy.  I had the cook set aside a hand sized slice for myself but it was too late, she had already marinated it in some raw calamansi juice and fermented soy sauce. I said that was acceptable and had that for my lunch.

I handed out the half-cooked beef liver to my 7 year old boy.  He said he didn’t like the taste.  Uh oh, that bitter cooked liver taste.  I remember that when I was young.  He rejected the half-cooked liver.  So I asked him to try my raw liver.  My boy liked the raw liver.  He said that raw liver tasted much better and the cooked liver tasted bad.  Same opinion with my 5 year old and my 4 year old… or they just copy whatever their eldest sibling says.  Whatever the reason, at least they get to eat raw liver… and in front of my wife and the grand parents at that.  It’s part of the cure for tooth decay I said, that’s what Rami Nagel, Weston Price and the raw paleo diet community has recommended.  Besides, I’ve been eating raw liver myself so I have the authority and experience to recommend it to my children. And I chose and bought that fresh raw liver at the wet market, personally.

Experienced some food poisoning with raw chicken liver that was probably not organic

by

2 weekends ago I wrote about that native chicken I bought along the highway.  It looked healthy enough.  So we had it slaughtered and I got my raw parts from it.  But after eating the unlaid yolks and half the liver, I immediately felt bad.  I took my plate and went to the sink.  My mouth started an immense salivating process.  I knew I had to puke so I waited on the sink and sure enough my reliable puking reflex did it’s job.  Just like what it is supposed to do.  Now I know why the teacher Aajonus Vonderplanitz says to not eat the liver or internal organs of non-organic animals.

The chicken looked native, but since I did not know who raised the animal, I do not know what it was fed during its life.  Maybe that is why I do not get this reaction when I eat Jackie Dellota’s organic chicken.  Organic makes all the difference.

But going back to my after – puke ordeal.  For the next 3 days my tummy did not feel right.  I was feeling gassy pain and hyperacidity.  This is what I did to solve this problem.

I first took 6 capsules of barefoot herbalist LBB to make sure my bowels flowed out properly.

For the hyperacidity, on the first day I had my lunch as 1 pork liempo inihaw, picked the fattiest one from Baliwag.  That will help soak up excess digestive juices.  On the 2nd day I had seared bloody fatty sirloin steak with lots and lots of fat to soak up excess digestive juices.  And on the 3rd day lunch I had fatty pork liempo again.  Mornings at breakfast I would include 2 raw organic duck eggs in a bowl.

I noticed that the fatty food soaked up my hyperacidity in this case and as long as my tummy was busy digesting the fatty meals I did not feel any pain.  On the fourth day all tummy pain was gone and I’m back to eating my raw animal foods usually at lunch.  I went back for more raw ocean shrimp last Sunday… I really liked that ocean shrimp.

The lesson here is to heed what the guru’s have warned about non-organic animal livers.  The liver is a filter of toxins.  The reason that non-organic chicken looked healthy was because its liver was doing its job of filtering out toxins from its blood.  Will I come back to eating raw organic livers?  Of course.
