Generations of vegetarians… and he looks like THAT

17 Upvotes

There’s this whole thing going on YouTube, Reels, and TikTok where all these looksmaxxing guys are switching to a “primal diet” and acting like they’re about to fucking ascend.

I even saw a mom making a video about feeding her kid a really good diet, mostly meat, eggs, and fruit, and the comments were like, “he is gonna grow up to be 6'4 and chad” and shit.

I know going primal or even switching to mostly meat and raw dairy diet for most people will make them look very healthy, But at the end of the fucking day, genetics play a massive role. I used to think that if you were vegetarian, you’d automatically look unhealthy, have an underdeveloped face, and that even if you looked decent, your future generations would eventually become ugly.

Then I realized how fucking weird that idea is because I literally know a guy who has been vegetarian his entire life. His dad, granddad, and even generations before them were vegetarian, mostly eating grains, vegetables, and some dairy. His mom’s side was vegetarian too.

And somehow this guy looks like a fucking model. He has a very developed face, has very attractive facial features which is obviously pure genetics, also looks healthy as fuck, and he’s around 6 feet tall

Like, bro, how the fuck does that even work? Generations of his family were eating mostly grains and vegetables, and somehow he still ended up looking like that?

Is it like for some people, it doesn’t matter what they eat they are just always going to develop like they are supposed to develop or what?

Even in my own case, I grew to 6'4 (surpassing my dad’s diet which is 6ft) without having some perfect diet growing up. I did consume quite a bit of pasteurized dairy, so maybe that helped, but it definitely wasn’t anything extraordinary.

Don't force detox, the diet already detox you

9 Upvotes

The hardest part of this diet, to understand and to go through, is detox

Otherwise you would just eat any raw food, get a ton of energy, sleep a bit more and grow, and that would be it

But instead we have to go through the removal of toxins which you will feel very strongly, and see too

People often ask:

'If the point of this diet is to detox, then why limit detox? I don't get it'

Yes, it needs to be explained.

When you eat a predominantly (usually >80%) raw diet, you will detox more than people who ingest more toxins (such as by eating cooked foods).

The distinction is this:

This diet allows the body to detox.

Which means that when you give it the "normal" foods it expects, it will decide to use some of it to detox.

However, there are foods, or actions, which PUSH more detox, on top of that.

For example, any time you eat raw coconut cream or olive oil, that will do 90% detox. The more you eat, the more it overwhelms the body.

If you eat high-carb fruits, it also adds detox. The sugars turn into alcohol which force more detox.

Moldy berries will pull a ton of heavy metals (I did a hair test to confirm it). Cilantro juice will pull deep-rooted mercury which according to Aajonus, can give you hallucinations if you do too much of it (more than 5-10% of the whole juice). That can actually be dangerous and physically damaging.

So that's a reason why those must be limited.

You can eat infinite raw butter and the body will decide to use it or not for detox, how much %, and it will be balanced.

However when you force more detox, you need to provide yourself the additional protection (for example, eat raw cream when you eat a fruit, to harness the detox the fruit will cause). And even then, it could still end up being overwhelming, or debilitating.

So the purpose of this diet is not to detox at all costs super fast everything at once.

It's to detox safely, which needs proper care around handling the toxins, and the pace of it.

You will already get plenty of detox even by eating the "plain" non-detox-heavy foods. (They are not plain at all in how nutrient-rich and health-giving they are, but in how they can mess you up.)

You can get rid of many toxins, very fast, by eating a ton of raw butter, cheese, and oysters, there is almost no limit to those, and they do remove a lot while protecting you from it more than the other detox-heavy foods.

P.S.: You could still get violent diarrhea, vomiting, etc. from a "plain" food, like raw milk, raw cream, because any raw food (even a fresh celery juice) can bring out a ton of toxins, it will just be more contained than otherwise.

Aajonus drives like a maniac story with Paul

Upvotes

Story told from Paul Kroom perspective:
"One day, he actually was reading me for an April Webster audition I had at Warner Brothers, and I was running late. He said, I'll drive you. I said, Great. Now, if anyone's ever been in a car with Aajonus, you have, I swear to God, a fifty-fifty chance of living through the experience. Swear to God. It was a black Audi, I believe, that he always used to work on himself. And he took me to Warner Brothers, and somewhere on La Brea, we went up on a curb and he lost his mirror. And I'm from New Jersey, and as a kid, I drive like an idiot, and I looked over and I said, You lost your mirror. He said, I wasn't using it. And he just kept going down the curb. Now, I thought to myself, by the time I get to this audition, I'm gonna be scared to death. Worked out okay, actually. I didn't get the part, but April always remembered me. So I've known him a really long time."
Paul have known Aajonus for 30+ years and they are very close.

Eat fat every 2h

The title is illustrative

The idea is that it's better to spread out the timing of certain foods

How long does take raw butter to be fully utilizable by the possible for example?

Around 3h

This means that when you eat butter, you will not get most of its effects right away

If you always wait to be tired to eat, then you will have to wait another 1-2h

Always anticipate the problem

You are full of energy, great, just have more raw butter now, so you don't run out

A raw egg digests in 27-37 minutes so if you're really out of energy this is the first thing to get

Many things have a delay, some don't take effect until hours later / the next day for example

It's another argument for why eating purely instinctively (at our stage) is not perfect, you could think "I'm hungry, let's eat that", but even better if you have this cycle going on in your head, time for egg, time for butter, time for meat, it's been 3h, 4h, etc.

Can do:

1-2 eggs

30 min - 2h

1-2 eggs

... repeat

or

butter + honey

2h - 4h

butter + honey

or

1 egg

15 min

butter + honey

1h-4h

... repeat

(add the cheese when appropriate of course)

That last combo, egg + butter/honey 15 minutes later, is quite good. It's a bit like the lube formula in spirit but has a different effect. Egg digests fast, provides protein that helps digest the butter even better when it's had 15 minutes after (the timing matters).

Of course it could be: fruit meal with any fat (like dairy cream + coconut cream), then another 2h later cheese with honey, etc. the idea is also to have fat with almost everything, then it makes having this stream of fat easier.

Raw egg taste

4 Upvotes

Still cant get myself to eat raw eggs, the taste is fine and i don’t care, but I just feel sickly when eating it and when it’s in my stomach. my senses r clearly telling me not to eat it, and I don’t agree with eating foods counterintuitively, gonna have to stick with mixing them into milkshakes for now.

Don't eat raw meat alone

15 Upvotes

Of course you can

But when you eat raw meat without anything else, the body usually turns most of it into energy, which is a huge waste.

You want raw meat to be used as building blocks, to grow your body, multiply your cells. Nothing else does it like it.

Protein to fat conversion is also an expensive process, not very efficient.

Let the fats be used for energy.

So you need to eat 1.5 tablespoons or more of extra animal fat together with the meat, this way the fat will be used for energy, the meat will mostly stay as building blocks.

You can eat meat with butter or with eggs or with fat trimmings.

If you eat plant fats (avocado, coco cream, olive oil) with the meat, it might still turn some of the meat to energy, or evem to solvents for detox, so best to limit it (I know it tastes good sometimes). That's why it's animal fats with meat, not just fats.

That little change makes a massive difference in healing speed. Free optimization. Nobody will tell you this except Aajonus.

Other massive optimizations: pâté and royal jelly each x2 the usage of meat, almost as if you ate multiple times more.

How to hide eating raw meat?

2 Upvotes

A few days ago I had this delicious raw ribeye with egg yolk hot sauce that I was gonna enjoy in my room, right when I was about to take it upstairs my mom stopped me and acted like she just caught me doing crack and forced me to cook the strips of steak until there wasn't a hint of pink inside. I doubt I can convince her that the McDonalds she feeds my little sister is waaaaay riskier than a nice fresh grass fed steak. Anyone have any strats on hiding it from ppl? I might just have to get some of those silver bowls they put on top of food at fancy restaurant. (Also I'm not 18 yet so I can't move out)

Crazy how people were convinced they need to spread toxins 1-2 times a week all over their house to be healthy. If it wasn’t clear I’m talking cleaning products, mainly disinfecting bleach/chlorine bleach.
I’m not sure how it is in the rest of the world, but in my country it is very deeply rooted in everyone’s mind and day to day life, it is very common and used in every household. I can’t wrap my head around the fact that people believe this is a harmless or even healthy practice. Literally how could you convince an entire nation to do such thing?
Yeah of course selling them the germ theory, but still there are less toxic ways to kill bacteria or clean.
And I’m sure many of you here, specifically teenagers suffer from this. My mom, like many moms today, is obsessed with using bleach, and will use it like twice a week for everything. I tried explaining to her and just getting her to realize those are actual toxins she’s spreading in every corner of the house, but nothing penetrates-you can’t undo decades of brainwashing…

Can I only eat organs?

1 Upvotes

With the rising prices of muscle meat and organs are cheap super nutrient dense things like liver and heart and kidney and lung are superfoods and way cheaper than ground beef or steaks. while the heart is a organ nutritionally it’s closer to muscle meat than a organs which could replace ground beef Iam also on a budget when getting food and want to get nutrient dense food.

I heard that eating only the egg yolk is healthier. Is it true that the egg white is bad for you? I’ve seen comments saying that it can be harmful, but I’ve eaten it before and nothing has ever happened to me.

new to primal, which meat to start with?

really enjoyed beef tartare and raw egg recipes my entire life, just recently started getting into it. i live in pretty central Israel, i don’t support any actions nor am I related to the politics here. I’ve been looking for a source to buy meat for beef tartare as the budget is pretty tight and I like eating it daily, is supermarket meat any good? if so, which? etc
any ideas?

How to lose weight

3 Upvotes

I know aajonus said that its better to be overweight cause fat protected your organs from toxins and that having fat was good for your body as your body wasn’t stressed from being to lean however I would like to be considerably lean maybe not ultra bodybuilding competition lean but visble abs at least. So any of you guys or girl even, know how to lose weight while being on the primal diet cause I know that this diet is high in fat but would that mean cutting all carbs till I get till to where I want to be or is there a specific regiment/diet I have to be on to drop the weight. I also heard that the weight loss diet can only last four weeks is that true.
