    Anxiety While Fat-free?

    I know there is essentially not much to worry about when going fat free, but as an experiment I tried to go as fat free as possible (couldn't do this without protein powders unfortunately but I wanted to see how I would feel) I would also have 1 oz of liver a day (my body never rejected it, I...

    PUFA In Bacon

    Bacon is one of my favorite foods. I eat it often and cook with the fat. I'm getting into PEATing and I realize that it's potential bad for two reasons: 1) PUFA 2) High Phosphate/Low Calcium How much PUFA is in bacon and how bad is bacon? All my other meat is grassfed.

    Carrot Substitute?

    I hate to sound like a whiner in my very first post, but is there anything I can substitute for the raw carrot?
