How can one speicies have such widely varying nutritional needs?
I get the raw thing, but how can nutritionists have such incredibly different views on what we should be eating?
On the one hand we have people like D. Graham who practically shun fat altogether, and, on the other hand, people like Aajonus Vonderplanitz who eat well over 50% fat (he claims to eat 1-2 sticks of raw butter per day, lots of raw meats, hardly any fruit, and never exercises).
This is like night and day. Is this Aajonus Vonderplanitz guy for real? Anyone tried his methods?
I just can't fathom how there could be such disparity of nutritional beliefs for humans.

Rotting meat- High meat is considered to be full of beneficial bacteria. There's a few videos of people eating High Meat on youtube. It's also a delicacy in some countries. Very popular with fish & egg in Asia.

Ajonus seems to phoney to me. He gives like 5 different reasons on why he choose to eat the way he does. had a dream with some Indian chief, tried to kill himself, was living with inuits.. etc...
Although he does have some good insight & knowledge on certain subjects. He comes off as to much of a con IMO. It's great that he helped them get through some health issues, but his followers are to cult like for my preference.
