Some weeks after my initial inquiry, I am compelled to give my view
as many others have done before me. After reading dozens of
testimonials relating to your nutritional advice and discovering
the Primal diet blog, I have summoned the courage to speak (I'm a
little shy).
It seems that for most of us who are conscious of our nutritional
protocol, the journey towards the Primal diet follows a remarkably
similar path. One's initial inquiries into nutritional knowledge
tend to reveal the obvious flaws in the macronutrient profiles
of the mainstream diets, such as low fat, low carb, high protein,
all forms of vegetarianism and various other 'extreme' examples of
'macro' manipulation. Upon the failure of these diets, most broaden
their knowledge on the subject by focusing on the less mainstream
information loosely based on the 'principles' derived from the
works of the 'traditional' types (Price and Pottenger) such as
Sally Fallon, Loren Cordain (paleo) etc., and even the more
abstract findings on enzyme nutrition published by the likes of
Dr.Edward Howell. It is here that the raw food spark is ignited,
but sadly at these crossroads, many are misled by the 'common
knowledge' that raw animal products, particularly meat, cannot be
be included in such a diet, and consequently, the raw vegan/
fruitarian approach is adopted. The evolution may stop here for a
while, as many believe this to be the ultimate human diet, but
subtle changes in body chemistry are occurring and soon the sense
that an important component is lacking becomes apparent. For me
personally, this is not quite where The Primal Diet steps in, for
that missing component of my diet was instinctively known to be
raw meat. However I needed confirmation before I attempted to
consume this 'dangerous delicacy'. The Primal Diet literature
gave me the confidence to do so, and hence has been the most
influential and single most important discovery of my dietary
evolution. I have now followed the Primal Diet for 2 years.
Aajonus, you are the bearer of the the most valuable,
scientifically fascinating, and biologically appropriate diet
for humankind. Please know that I am forever grateful for your
work, and that I intend to promote your work here in Australia
(with your permission).
Thanks again,

As a fellow sydneysider I would be very keen to learn where you are sourcing your dairy and meat products from as I feel from years of a raw fruit and vegetable I am very much missing something and having read the primal diet feel this could be the answer!
