I haven't heard of an instincto catching fish parasites during eating
raw yet. But I can investigate on this a little. Perhaps I'll find a
case.
But I know of instinctos who already had intestinal parasites before
they switched to raw nutrition. And against all theory (;-)) they
didn't disappear even after years, not even with conventional medicine.

Well, one might reach for all the excuses for this failure now (non-
instinctive supply, bad combinations, not 100% raw, blah, blah) but
these instinctos have an understandable fear of getting even more para-
sites.
So they are very careful with raw animal food. They would never eat some
little worms if they discovered them.
Some of them handle the issue in a (IMO) crazy way: if they discover
living parasites or eggs, they remove them, then eat the rest. As if
it would be impossible for other parasites to be inside of the fish
and invisible...

It's easy to say, you are benefitting from microbes and parasites and
it's hard to live with them, it seems. Maybe less theory and more
usable practical advice would be useful here.

Best regards,

Stefan
