I have thoroughly enjoyed reading this thread, but I'm afraid that theBear's repeated rudeness and arrogance, even to those who do not argue against him, has finally convinced me that I no longer wish to waste my time here.

This is quite easy to show. Chickens who are fed flax meal have higher levels of omega 3 in their eggs. Humans who eat those eggs will likewise have higher levels of omega 3 in their bodies.


Lisa from what I have read mercury is stored in the flesh not the fat.

Benefits for WHO?! I am SO GLAD I have a freezer and can purchase animal food from farmers who are not MAD scientists! I'm sorry, but I DO NOT TRUST the "food" industry! In fact, I ONLY fully trust Mother Nature! She has no "vested interest" in anything! Hence my sole reason in seeking out natural sources of human food... that would be naturally-raised/wild animals, thank you very much!

Hi, theBear.

I hope that you do not mind my asking, but are you able to stay regular on a 100% meat diet?

theBear,
does it matter what time we eat our meals? like should breakfast be the biggest meal? should you not eat 3 hours before bedtime?

Thanks SO much for all your help. I love this thread!

Hey Bear, was that at the house in LA in 1966? That sounds like Rock's account in his book, a fridge with nothing but a strip of beef to cut steaks from and eggs.

And in general, when I'm at the usda.gov food counts and there's the lipid profiles, which ones are omega-3s? And what do the ratio amounts mean 4:0, 6:0 etc?

An all meat diet should be very low residue so 'regular' may only be once a week or so.

I find this to be true for me. I am finishing 3 weeks of all meat and eggs (and some dairy) and although I don't have to go as often as before (before it was about once a day.... now maybe just a bit every few days... sorry for too much info! lol), I also don't feel constipated. I make sure I eat plenty of fat.

I'm still trying to get a handle on this way of eating. I'm trying to figure out what % of my diet should be fat and how I'm gonna get it on a daily basis.

I'm having trouble maintaining a higher % of fat in my diet. I'm at about 55%-60% fat right now and I'm looking to increase that level to about 70%. I travel a lot and I sometimes have trouble getting the right type of food (e.g. getting stuck in a customer's office ... with only a Subway nearby) . I'm looking for suggestions anyone might have.

What dietary fat %'s are people out their maintaining?

I don't have the time to make my own. Do you know of any commercially available pemmican product?

Also, what is your dietary breakdown with the help of pemmican ?

Bear, you mentioned earlier the digestive problems encountered with the loss of the appendix and the gallbladder. I am missing both; the gallbladder was removed 10 years ago, the appendix (and the tonsils) when I was a child. Do you know of anything I could take to help, maybe taking digestive enzymes?
Dean, thanks for the eatwild link; I finally found where to get some grass-fed beef here in BC.

That depends on the type of mercury. Some accumulates in the brain (mostly fat), some in blood cells and some in the kidneys. In fish, it is often found in highest concentrations in the fat.
