2 YEARS ON RAW PALEO DIET
TESTIMONIAL

2 YEARS ON RAW PALEO DIET TESTIMONIAL
BY ELI EDWIN CASIMERO
Raw Paleo Diet is the original human diet before agriculture. Raw Paleo Diet is raw fruit, raw
vegetables and raw organic / wild fatty animal food. The theory is that the human body is one
of nature's best creations. We are self healing and always healthy given the original human
diet. As a foundation to curing most diseases, sticking to a raw paleo diet every day will bring
dramatic, sustainable results.
My raw paleo diet adventure came about with my desperate search for the cure for everything
that afflicted me. The challenges to my life always needed a solution. Being trained as an
engineer, a computer geek, a problem solver, led me to finding ultimate solutions or else.
Born in 1969, I grew up just like every urban kid on baby formula, drugs, some fast food, lots of
cooked food and following the debunked food pyramid of high cooked carbs and low fat.
When I was a child I was diagnosed with asthma and doctors prescribed anti-histamine drugs.
When I had cystic acne at 16, dermatologists bombarded me with steroid injections and
creams. Finally one decided I should take an experimental drug called Ro-Accutane. We had to
go to the drug company main office and sign a waiver for their drug was experimental and
severe side effects were possible.

In 2004 while visiting the beaches of Boracay I got bit by sandflies and suffered for 2 whole
years of itching all over my arms and legs. After months on steroid injections and steroid
creams, I gave up and just let it be and in 2006 the suspected leishmaniasis went away.
All throughout my life I had foliculitis, got red splotches on my body when I took a bath, got
easily faintly tired with strenuous activity, had heart burns, left rotation shoulder pain, was
hospitalized for various unknown viral diseases and had some heart murmur called mitral valve
prolapse and became obese at 170 pounds and wore 38″ waistline pants.
Beginning with my spouse and I's secondary infertility adventure in 2002 led us to clean up our
diet eliminating junk foods and eliminating anything not edible from being put on our skin and
throwing away the microwave oven. And using raw oysters to increase sperm counts.
In the same 2002 while trying to conceive I came down with an unknown viral illness, was
hospitalized for 3 days, then suffered from chronic fatigue syndrome for 1 month. The heart
doctor who ordered a battery of tests said nothing came out of the tests so he wanted to shape
my heart by prescribing a heart shaping medicine called beta blockers but it may kill off my
erections! This was so unacceptable to my core personality as I only had one child and my life
goal was at least more than 4. I sternly refused the drugs and found out that by merely
eliminating all sources of caffeine I was able to cure myself in 3 weeks.

When my 2nd child was born in September 2003 I was obese at 170 pounds, I desperately
wanted to lose weight to look sexy enough to have more children. I blindly attempted to follow a
cooked Atkins diet. I then sought the teachings of a mainstream western medicine nutritionist
and she taught me the way to reduce weight was to reduce the starches and up the vegetables.
I did lose weight and maintained some 140 pounds for some time. But I still was not healthy.
In 2003 a small eczema began on my lower right leg, it was a good itch, I paid no mind to it. It
became full blown in middle of 2005 I had full blown eczema with the size of a steak on my
right leg, on my whole face, my ears, my left arm. I was a mess, I could not work, I could not go
out, all 5 doctors I saw told me I was INCURABLE and I was going to be this way for the rest of
my life.
The incurable diagnosis was unacceptable for me. I was always the open minded type. No
DOGMA was my motto in life. I'm an engineer, a problem solver, if these so called "doctors" said
I was incurable, it only meant THEY DID NOT KNOW the cure and that their common
educational foundation was AMISS. I had to find people who DID KNOW the cure... NON-
DOCTORS so I drove to a far away town where there were NO western medical doctors, and my
true health learning journey began with a 3rd generation herbalist named Manang Lorna.
I learned about electro-medicine, herbs and detoxing: kidney cleanses, liver flushes, colon
cleanses and many other cleanses which eliminated my eczema symptoms. Free of eczema
symptoms. But I wanted more. I wanted vibrant health. I knew there was more and I wanted to
be healthy so bad I just had to learn more. All detox and no diet change meant no real cure.

In 2007 I had stumbled onto raw veganism through Dr. Tam Mateo. I tried 2 months of raw
veganism his way, his recipes, his consultation, but I got too thin and finally gave up raw
veganism. I added cooked meat and rice again to my diet and to gain weight.
I was then ready for fasting and I tried a 14 day orange juice fast under the tutelage of Barefoot
Herbalist MH. It was an eye opener. I got rid of cooked meat and rice addiction. I was ready to
try raw fruitarian. And I did try raw fruitarian which only lasted me 2 months. I was getting
thinner on raw fruitarian than raw vegan plus I felt cold and I was living in a tropical country, in
warm Manila at 25 to 30 degrees celcius. What finally knocked me to stop the fruitarian
madness was when I asked for support as to when my cold feelings would stop. A long time
fruitarian said it would take 5 years! That did it, I had to find something else.
I stumbled onto the Wai Diet by Wai Genriiu (A form of Raw Paleo Diet). It was an easy step from
fruitarian to Wai Diet, just add extra virgin olive oil and raw fish sashimi and raw egg yolks to my
tropical fruits. Bam! Instant feeling of good health! I gained sane enough weight from 112 to
120 pounds on Wai Diet. The addition of raw meat to my meat less 4 months was a life giving
breath to my health.
After 3 months on Wai Diet I got bored with just sea food, why not try land animals? I stumbled
onto Aajonus Vonderplanitz who went on and on about the benefits of raw land animals, raw
beef, raw chicken, plus raw dairy.

I needed some hand holding, some support to get me started and I found Geoff Purcell (in the
UK) at AllExperts.com very accessible. He and Craig Bates started up Raw Paleo Forum which
was very helpful for newbies like me.
I experimented with various raw land animals with duck, chicken, goat, lamb, frogs and liked
raw organic grass fed beef the best... the legendary grass fed Batangas beef with yummy yellow
fat is true! I experimented with many kinds of raw dairy from goat, cow and carabao and all
failed, I just could not digest dairy, I realized I was lactose intolerant. My tummy also disagreed
with raw green juicing.
I got curious about the Homo Optimus Diet involving cooked pork, I made my one month
experiment and felt my health was inferior on cooked meat compared to raw meat.
I found out that on raw paleo diet of organic fruit and raw fatty organic animal foods, I never got
sick for a whole year. I felt invincible. This was a first for me, going on and on everyday
expecting not to get sick. The only times I felt sick were the times I tried eating a non-raw paleo
diet. Plus for the first time I've got bicep muscles on my arms and I'm a sedentary computer
geek. Gosh, that talk about eating raw meat will make you put on muscles without gym
exercises are true.
In 2009 I shifted to a high fat low carb raw paleo diet and I found it to be even more
comfortable. Gone were the shaky hungry feelings characterized by hypoglycemia which I
thought was normal throughout my life when every meal time comes.

Raw paleo diet is the easiest diet I have been on although high quality organic fruit and organic
meat is expensive. Raw Paleo Diet is even easier than regular SAD or cooked paleo diet. Being
free from the shackles of cooking is a dream that must be experienced. It seems I have found
"home" as raw paleo diet is so easy even a caveman can do it.
To even further my access to the best foods possible I moved my company office to Cubao, just
beside my favorite wet market "Farmers Market" for daily fresh marketing.
My diet these days is a high raw fat, low carb diet composed of:
* raw organic low glycemic local fruits in season - high vitamin C fruits (guava, papaya, indian
mangoes), hydrating fruits (watermelon, melon), fatty fruits (durian, coconuts) we follow the
seasons
* raw fertilized duck eggs flown in from Palawan
* raw grass fed fatty Batangas beef and sometimes raw goat or raw lamb
* various raw sea food like oysters, clams, small and big fish, sea prawns, etc.
* No supplements. No supplements can match the power of real food.
Raw paleo diet and its variants is curative. My own small children have experienced eating raw
paleo diet themselves. When the kids are sick I put them on a raw paleo diet same as mine,
they know the cure for their illness is RAW because they experience immediate relief. The kids
know who the healthiest person at home is these days.

At the end of this year 2009 I will have been 2 years on raw paleo diet and I now weigh a more
respectable 128 pounds with a short height of 5′5″ and 31″ waistline pant size. Always
expecting to achieve new health heights over the next years as I fine tweak and continually
adjust. All my health issues have been resolved. It has only been these 2 years I have ever felt
truly healthy.
Today at 40 years old I look younger, slimmer and have more strength than when I was 30. It is
on raw paleo diet that I realized that humans were meant to be healthy and stay healthy,
effortlessly.
