I had heard simular stories but experienced no problems, I started
eating raw tuna first, It tasted just like I remembered it. I really
enjoyed it, went on an eight mile hike and was planning on fasting until
the next morning. I had no stomach upset. When I finished the hike I was
hungry and ate my normal fruit meal. I ate the fish once a week for
almost a year. Then I went to see some instincto friends who gave me my
first mammal meat to try. I also tatsted wonderful. I started eating raw
meat every day. I gained 20 pounds, all muscle. My body had been starved
for protein. I felt enough better that I decided that I definately
didn't want to be a vegetarian any more.
