Dh and I didn't have what it takes to follow his way of eating completely, but we did promise ourselves that if we ever found out we had cancer, that is exactly what we would do. We have both of the books. You can take what you want from them, but they do have good info. He also does consultations over the phone for a certain amount of money.

The man really DID cure himself of cancer after the doctors had failed and tried everything and screwed him up to no end. He is super healthy now.

Aajonus would be the first (and probably only) person I would consult with a cancer dx. I had the privildege to attending a one day workshop with him last weekend and boy does he look young and healthy for a 61 year old man. He was just recovering from a serious motorcycle accident which happened in Thailand in March. He treated himself with raw foods, he cleaned his wounds with lime juice, then put coconut cream on them and then raw meat. He lost some bone, shaved it down in the impact, he lost a lot of skin and muscle and to see his arm now is amazing, the bone has regrown, and there is no scarring. He also badly damaged his knee but refused to be operated on, that too is almost healed. The power of raw [animal] foods never ceases to amaze me. I also recommend a consultation, I have had one and DH has had two so far, they have been invaluable as far as we are concerned.

ETD: DH and I and the children to a limited extent have been on (and off) the diet for 9 years.

I would also do something like Vonderplanitz's diet if I was diagnosed with a serious illness like cancer. I think you have to be extreme when you are extremely ill.

OP--I hope your dh heals quickly whatever he chooses,

You know, it really isn't that extreme! Just the raw meat/fish and you get used to it very quickly. Of course cooked foods are highly addictive, so it is easy to fall back into eating cooked foods if you aren't careful. For example today I had a raw green veggie juice, followed an hour or so later by filet mignon, cut into tiny pieces with raw unsalted cheese, 1/2 an avocado and some organic grape tomatoes, for a sauce I made one of Aajonus' mayonaise recipes. A little later, as I am detoxing come crud, I juiced two oranges, blended with two raw eggs and a tablespoon of unheated honey. Later in the pm I had a mango custard, 1/2 a mango, one raw egg, a tablespoon of raw butter and some raw cream. I just had another meat dish. I should have drunk another veggie juice but didn't feel like it. Before I go to bed I will have a glass of room temperature raw milk, goat today, but I usually I drink cows milk. I also should probably have had more raw butter.

I am marinading some raw scallops and shrimp to make cerviché for tomorrow's dinner.

Well, most people think my diet is extreme and I just do TF! The AV diet is "extreme" compared to what most people eat, I guess. I really like sushi/raw fish so that is appealing but raw beef is still and issue for me. I am just at the point where I can it it cooked meduim...and that is a huge step I will start eating raw liver when it it done freezing for 14 days though.

I am interested in finding some Scandinavian raw/fermented fish recipes out of curiosity of what my great-granparents ate.

I guess you are right, it is extreme compared to mainstream America! It just goes against everything we are told is true. I am finding that I am now so far out of the mainstream in many areas of my life, diet, health etc, that fitting in is becoming a challenge. Thankfully my IRL friends accept me for what I am! After being with Aajonus, I was totally blown away with how healthy he looks, he had the body of an athlete but the man does no exercise at all. It was very inspiring for me to hang with him for a while he knows so much, and he has done some amazing personal research. DH even got to eat ice cream with him, homemade by Aajonus!

I am still learning and experimenting with raw foods, I do like raw beef, but it has to be filet mignon (which gets expensive) and I love raw fish, I still can't do raw chicken or turkey, I just haven't found a sauce I like that will help it go down.

The other thing about Aajonus is he is very forgiving, he just tells you what he knows works following years of trial and research, but it doesn't have to be all or nothing, and he never makes you feel bad about what you eat.

I highly recommend reading both his books.
