Vicki, when posting please identify the people whose messages you are quoting.

It is true that a 100% raw diet is not extreme when comparing to the diet
of other living organisms on the planet, but seen in the light that
humankind has evolved on a semi-cooked, omnivorous diet, then a 100 % raw,
vegan diet does seem quite extreme.

Zephyr getting sick from eating raw, mongoose liver is a poor argument for
not eating RAF.  It would like be staying away from greens because some
herbs are poisonous.

Best, Peter
