I think it's more to do with combining cooked with raw or eating aged, cooked meats, along with the fact that people on cooked diets have compromised immune-systems and extreme allergenic response to bacteria and foodstuffs. It's no coincidence that the vast majority of deaths from food-poisoning/botulinism come from very old or very young or people, or people who are already ill.
So if one has a system compromised by a past cooked diet, should one then wait until it's relatively healed before eating high meats?
