Very good advice everyone. I will experiment with all of it and try to commit to a 100% raw paleo diet. I have a feeling this is going to help a lot. I have a rebounder also at home but never use it. I'm thinking it would help a lot, so I'll implement that daily.

Also, I eat a lot of sea salt. I put it in my water, on my meat, eat it with eggs, put it in vegetable juice... really eat a lot of it. Salt is dehydrating right? Should I try cutting it out?

Were you regular when you were cooked ZC?  I'm assuming you were cooked ZC since you used to post on ZIOH.

I'm asking because i wasn't regular at all when i was on cooked ZC, i'd go every 3-4 days, longer sometimes. I always wondered if that was normal or not. On raw ZC, i'm more regular.

i was browsing ZIOH last nite and saw that your account was deleted, what happened?

I was not as regular on cooked ZC, but my fat percentage was lower, so I attribute that to the lower fat, not the cooked. I am now blogging over at Active Low Carber. I am still ZC and never eat off plan, but I had personality conflicts over my ZC WOE at ZIOH. You can follow me at ALC if you wish. We have a vibrant carnivore community, though I am the only consistently raw ZCer.

Are you 100% sure of that? When i was cooked ZC, i ate alot of medium ground pork which was extremely fatty and i wasn't regular at all. On a slightly less fatty raw ZC diet, i'm more regular. In my case, i'm convinced raw was key.

Yes. I've started eating a higher fat percentage which coincided with my going raw.

You will find that your taste for salt gets less as you eat more raw.
I can't stand it anymore on raw, but used to like it. Just eat to taste, don't need to force anything.

    Distilled water tastes disturbingly flat.  A vegan naturopath friend of mine swore by it.

    Raw cheese firms stools if anything for most people.  Supposedly raw cheese is not really constipating, even though it firms the stool.  It's supposed to be a cure for constipation from what I heard, by sopping up toxins off of the colon walls.

Well, I didn't eat any fiber at all yesterday, and today when I woke up I had the toughest to pass stool I have ever had. Coincidentally it was the bloodiest I've ever had too. In my vegan days, I used to eat a lot of fiber from fruits and veggies as well as drink a lot of water, and didn't have problems with hemorrhoids. I think the smartest thing would be to re-implement fiber slowly and see how much is needed for me to be able to pass smooth stools that aren't bloody, and keep it to a strict minimum.

    Who lives in Thailand? 

    Many ground beefs are lean.  Suet isn't the only raw animal fat.  There's grass grazed cultured butter, grass grazed beef marrow, hide or backfat, brain and a few more.  What is highland liver?  I think 80% of your calories should be fat. 

    Cheese is not a fat, unless it is made 100% of butter.  On the primal diet it is recommended to never eat cheese alone.  That you have to eat an equal size portion of fat with it.  Cheese is not considered a food in primal diet.  It is considered a supplement.  It is considered too dry and lacking in moisture to be a food.  Do not eat cheese without fat.

    I know I couldn't handle three cups of apple juice a day, not even one.  If you want to fast from food and heal that way, maybe you could try a green juice and raw egg fast.  I know either one of those foods makes me go to the bathroom and doesn't inflame nor rip anything.  Aajonus also recommends if you want to fast to use those two rather than fruit, water or fruit juices.  In my Living Food LifestyleTM training too, we were taught never to waterfast nor juice fast.  We also never went all fruit for more than a day per week.

 
I can't eat as much as you probably can in Thailand. Also don't have access to young coconuts. Raw fats is another problem. I do eat a decent amount of ground beef (500g a day on average), but don't have access to suet for example. The only organ from a grassfed animal that I have access to is bison or highland liver, but don't quite like the taste of it. How much raw fat should I consume a day? I eat some raw cheese but not on a daily basis... I don't think I have much raw fat in my diet at all, so it could definitely be something to experiment with.

As for colon cleansing, I've had a high quality colon cleansing kit on hand for a while now. I've been scared to fast on apple juice for 3 days though. I've never fasted, and generally feel quite weak when I don't eat for a while. I tend to eat 3 to 4 meals a day. I was also worried that all the good bacteria in my colon would just get flushed out. I decided I'd give it a try though because I've ate quite unhealthy when I was traveling and feel the need to cleanse it thoroughly right now.
