Good to know; thanks for the link. It was an interesting read. However, as you can probably surmise from the previous posts, health advice that contradicts her doctor (especially when the doctor's...
My SO is at least supportive of my health choices. That's something, of course. But she recently was told she had early signs of osteoperosis (at age 30); she basically didn't believe me when I...
Thank you! This is a source of much contention right now. My mate has a number of health issues that she just refuses to address beyond a little symptom-treating. Won't even take the CW solutions,...
As far as I know, we just have the Natural Movement Meetup. However, I've wanted to get some primal community going, too. Just for friends and hangouts and whatever. I'm sure we can get one going...
I am also living in the Twin Cities, and I'm always on the lookout for new Primal friends. This seems like a natural place for a Primal community, what with all the hunting, cycling, and outdoor...
...you're out for your daily 3 mile walk, happen to catch your reflection in a store window, and realize that in terms of build, posture, gait, etc., you look like the guy on the "Evolution of Man"...
I went Primal after moving away from the Twin Cities, but I've recently moved back to Minneapolis and am still thoroughly committed to Primal living. Is this group still active? Are there upcoming...
You make your own chocolate out of 1 Tbsp organic, grass-fed tallow (from your cowpool), 1 Tbsp un-Dutched cocoa powder, a pinch of salt, 1 tsp homemade vanilla extract, and 1 teaspoon of raw honey.
You think to yourself "well, that ghee will take about 30 to render" and use the time to work on handstands.
The baker at work assures you that you'll die of a heart attack, despite your single...
Thanks for all the quick feedback, guys! I guess my subject line should have been clearer - it doesn't have to be actual caves (though I'm not opposed to that). I'm just looking for anything Primal...
Dear Apples:
I just graduated from college in December and I'm planning a month-long trip to Europe to celebrate. I'll be in various parts of Europe from April 2-29. I don't have a particular...
When your friends who hunt invite you to come to a deer butchering just because they think you'd be interested, and then pay you for your knife-wielding help by sending you home with 10+ pounds of...
...your several days (let's be honest) of feasting on turkey and seasonal veggies mean you come back from Thanksgiving setting new workout records, instead of feeling heavy and gross.
You get stopped by a policeman mid-workout because sprinting is, apparently, suspicious unto itself. You are required to explain your training regimen and verify that you live nearby before being...
Someone butts into your conversation about grain-fed versus grass-fed beef to tell you that "cattle aren't fed corn because it's too expensive" and you just walk away, because you don't even know...
I am so glad that this post exists. I just got back a whole host of labs, and the only one that came back "abnormal" was my lipid panel, over which my doctor expressed some concern:
Total: 240...
Have you seen the ManPans before? They are made in the USA, no chemicals, but absorb high heat oils like grapeseed to become nonstick. Lifetime warranty, and get good reviews. I'm going to be...
Roxio is pretty good, and not too expensive. There's also the world of open source software, such as LiVES:

The more I think about it, the more the psychology makes sense. There was a week over the summer when I felt really great again, when I was on vacation, and I figured it was because I was at the...
Again, thanks to everyone for all the support and advice. I went in yesterday and got a whole bunch of labs done, so I'll be getting a lot of conclusive data soon. I was happy to find that my...
Wow! Thanks for all the feedback, everyone. What a great community we have here.
I'm going in to the doctor today (I know, I know) to get some labs done, and hopefully get a definitive answer. ...
Vitamin D I could probably use more of, too. Since school started, my sunbathing time is mostly gone...
I've got a recipe for Sweet Potato Porridge (a great oatmeal replacement) over at my blog. It's very straightforward, and totally Primal.

@anjelevil: that's good to hear - I get the meat from my cowpool this week, and it includes all the marrow bones, the heart, and the liver.
@Unixmonkey: Glad to know that I'm not the only one...
Thanks for the quick replies! As it turns out, it may be both of those things - thinking back on the times I've felt the best were when I was on vacation this summer at the Gulf - eating a lot of...
