Hello. I was reading your articles and I think this is the best place to place this question. I am on a primal diet for about 5 or 6 months (a lot of raw animal products such as grass-fed liver and butter) and my skin has improved but it’s not quiet clear yet, I still have some breakouts here and there. I do have your book and read your discussion on vegetables oils and of course I avoid that and sugar, even from fruits. Do you have any special recommendation for acne in the forms of preferred foods? Maybe some supplements aside from fermented cod liver oil which I do take. Just want to let you know that your book is highly enjoyable specially the “Offal-y Good For You” section! Looking forward for the third one!
Daniel,
If you haven’t tried adding in bone broths, that would definitely be my next recommendation.
Here’s a funny bit from a reader in Atlanta about her experience with it:http://www.amazon.com/Deep-Nutrition-Your-Genes-Traditional/product-reviews/0615228380/ref=cm_cr_dp_synop?ie=UTF8&showViewpoints=0&sortBy=bySubmissionDateDescending#RZWN3P9HAOEDM
Hello there. I actually I am trying those broths lately. They are soo good! Some questions Dr. Cate: Is it okay to leaves the vegetables and meat/bones in the broth and put it in the refrigerator instead of straining it? I like to just put the whole thing is the refrigerator (not freezer) and eat it throughout the day, I think I like it better like that than straining it and each batch I make does not last longer than a week anyways. Also, what are your thoughts on intermittent fasting? I been wanting to do one or two 24 hrs fasts weekly and I have done some research and it seems to be beneficial for the digestive system. Thank you so much!
Dr. Cate,
I have been making bone broths (delicious!) but I have a question about them. Is it okay not to strain them and just leave them with the vegetables/meat in the refrigerator until I finish the batch? They don’t last more than three days! Also, what do you think of intermittent fasting? For example a weekly 24 hour fast. Would you recommend them? Thank you so much!
Daniel
I’d say if they taste okay, it’s okay.
I’ll do a blog on IF, since its a big topic. Stay tuned!
