QuestionDiarrhea since Wednesday (4 days plus) morning. Drinking milkshakes of raw milk, raw egg and honey. Some water in the beginning and end of day. I know diarrhea can be very bad. Some muscle cramping. Any suggestions? How long can this last?
AnswerIf you've only recently been consuming raw animal foods, along with no or very little cooked foods, then the diarrhea is almost certainly detox.Most rawists get a detox in the early stages of going raw as the body finally gets a break and can get rid of the heat-created toxins in its body more effectively. I myself had green diarrhea for the first 2-3 days after going fully rawpalaeo. Initial detoxes, though, can last from a day or less or can last weeks, all depends on the individual.
Another possibility, assuming you've been consuming mainly raw foods for far longer than a few weeks, is that you are allergic to one of the raw animal foods you are eating, most likely raw dairy or, much less likely, raw eggs.Try raw grassfed or wild meats instead, for now, perhaps.
