For More Life, Eat Raw Foods Youth Eats Raw Meat Diet ­ Originally published in Singapore’s Lianhe Zaobao (5 Feb 2006) ­ Original Chinese text writ en by Ding Lee Yong ­ Translated from Chinese to English by Kian Modern man is paying greater attention to healthy living. Some people choose to exercise, some people use health care products, while others change dietary habits in a bid to improve one’s physical health. Some local people have attempted the Primal Diet which originated from the U.S. in recent years. The diet advocates consumption of unprocessed and raw foods, including fish, meat, vegetables and more, so as to preserve the food’s natural goodness and al ow the body to better absorb nutrients for improved health. Seven years ago, 25­year­old Kian, despite his youth, suffered from chronic fatigue. Other than being mental y tired, his physical energy was also lower than before. In addition, a persistent cough also troubled him. Many such signs showed him that his health was going down hill, with the possibility of premature aging. Kian, who had never been particularly health conscious, felt that these signs were a “red alert warning” of things to come, and he felt worried. “I would pant heavily just climbing the stairs at home, frequently have insomnia, and didn’t have much energy during the day. I thought, if my health is so bad when I am only 20 years old, how would I be when I’m 30, 40 or 50?” Like many Singaporeans, Kian liked eating al  kinds of tasty foods, such as fried noodles, chicken rice, and wild exotic cuisine. Kian felt that other than stress from work, diet must have played a major role in his declining health. Thus he decided to look for answers to health via foods. Kian is a self­-employed information science and technology consultant, and the majority of his work time is spent at home, al owing him to access the Internet and do his own research in finding solutions for optimal health and vitality. He tried the most common purported dietary health solutions: vegetarianism as well as fruitarianism. Vegetarians do not eat meat, and mainly eat vegetables and gluten­-derived foods; fruitarians eat mainly fruits and drink fruit juices. “Initially, I felt digestion improved and my body felt lighter. However, this improved situation only lasted a month or so. After that, my weight dropped, and my body felt cold and listless, and my skin turned yellowish.” By chance, Kian found a diet via the Internet called the Primal Diet which he had never heard of before. Primal dieters do not eat anything cooked or processed, including rice, bread and any processed sauces, and they eat a variety of meats such as beef, chicken, and fish, except for pork. Eggs, raw milk, raw butter and raw cream also form the bulk of the diet. In addition, they avoid eating fiber as the fiber supposedly damages the body’s ability to digest meat properly. However, they take in vitamins and minerals from vegetables in the form of green juices. [...]
