Primal Diet: the best way to start your life

I have been on the primal diet for over 11 years, about 90-95% compliant. My wife has also been eating this way for about 5 years and we have two kids, age two and a half and 3 months. Our two and a half year old son was breastfed for a year, and we slowly introduced raw meat (beef, chicken, fish, lamb, buffalo, liver) and raw dairy products into his diet. He is very robust and vibrantly healthy. Sometimes his memory and thinking ability surprise us. My wife taught a Montessori class of preschoolers, so she has good feel for that age group. Our daughter is still breastfeeding, but am looking forward to when she’s ready. It’s the best way to start your life!

The Primal Diet is an international raw food diet

"I've been on [the] Primal Diet for 8 months now, not having trouble staying on it,which I could not say after being 4 years on (mostly) raw vegetarian food (with some raw milk).
I cleansed but started losing muscle and energy.
I'm feeling a LOT better now! Thanks for your personal work and information."

Raw recipe for Halvah

Ever tried Halvah? It's a middleeastern candy that's hundreds of years old. It's one of the very few candies that's actually good for you because of its high calcium/phosphorous/magnesium content.

Although there are many variations, the basic recipe for Halvah is very simple: RAW unheated honey, sesame seed paste (Tahini), unsalted butter with any combination of chopped nuts or seeds (added last). Favorites nuts are raw organic pistachios, almonds, cashews and macadamias. Seed favorites are organic sunflower, pumpkin and sesame seeds. The nuts and/or seeds can used either singly or in combination on the candy's exterior. The more chopped nuts and/or seeds, the richer and more nutritious the candy.

To start with, the honey, Tahini and and unsalted butter are the basic part of the recipe and are hand-mixed in proportions to suit your taste. The combined result is then fashioned into a sticky log roll. Chopped nuts or seeds are then added to the outside of the roll. After cutting the roll into approx four inch lengths, place on a cookie sheet, refrigerate for a couple hours and your Halvah is ready to serve. Enjoy.
