Parasites prey on weak, dead and damaged cells. Cells are weakened and
damaged by neolithic diet, including cooked proteins. Malnutrition.
My recent reading of the habits of hookworms show that they are
actually symbiotes to those who eat enough meat, I don't know if it
must be raw, but this would help as it is much better in terms of
available nutrients. Maybe other so-called parasites might be the
same.
Symmetry should result from three generations of adequate nutrition
and avoiding anti-nutrients such as nitrites, smog, electro-fog, soy,
PCBs and other sources of xeno-estrogens etc.
Those who eat enough fodder must kill "parasites".
Big tits get my atttention but the old saying is "If you want milk,
buy a cow". A well-curved arse combined with the traditional hourglass
figure is more inspiring. IMHO

In my experience, there is usually a real good reason for such
sweeping trends such as cooking meat and sexy women marrying rich old
men. If cooking meat had no real purpose, do you think the trend
wouldve caught on so well for so long?

negatively effect the biological and biochemical mechanisms involving

feather length and parasite infection rates to determine how sexual
selection was affected. Thompson et al (1997) determined from their
experiment that long, red flight feathers and plumage were indicators
of high fitness, low parasite infection while males with a high
parasite infection rate were drab-yellowish in color with shorter
flight feathers. The reason for smaller feathers is considered a
direct result of the parasitic infection leading to less energy being
expended to grow the feathers and being redirected to fight the
infection (Thompson et al 1997)."

For instance with plant foods, we may be able to cook and prepare them
in ways to allow ourselves to bypass the natural toxins and access
some of the calories or nutrition they have to offer. But cooking
them also depletes them of certain nutrients and might produce other
toxins in the process. By cooking meat, we may also destroy enzymes
and alter proteins and fat to some degree that may or may not have
negative consequences, but we may also reduce the load of bacteria and
parasites that our body has to deal with, therefore allowing our
bodies more energy to be creative and beautiful (read: loud roaring
and symmetrical)

> Is there a compromise where we all come out ahead and symmetrical?
Have we already found that compromise through traditional methods of
preparing and lightly cooking our foods with care? Raw Paleo Dieters
are on the fringe, we are the guinea pigs, who are we to tell everyone
else they are wrong? What is the consequence to balance the advantage
we have gained with raw animal foods? Though not immediately visible,
might it be expressed in our children, or much later in life in us?
Parasites may clean our guts, and consuming lots of bacteria may
strengthen our immune system, but, as informed by nature, will it also
make it more difficult to get laid by big bosomed women who are in
touch with their instincts?
