Raw meat, poultry, seafood and dairy can harbor harmful bacteria, viruses, and parasites. These can cause severe food poisoning, potentially leading to hospitalization and even death. A raw primal diet can provide some nutrients, it’s difficult to obtain a balanced diet and meet all nutritional needs, especially without cooked grains, legumes, and certain vegetables. Deficiencies in vitamins B12, D, iron, calcium, and iodine are possible. Also cooking denatures proteins, making them easier to digest for some people.
The claim that this diet replicates what our ancestors ate is highly debated. As we discussed before, Paleolithic diets varied greatly, and it’s unlikely that humans consumed a diet entirely of raw foods. There is very little scientific evidence to support the health claims made by proponents of the raw primal diet.
Despite all negatives a raw primal diet still have many positives such as nutrient retention, reducing Exposure to Heat-Related Compounds, avoiding processed foods.
So there are both negatives and positives. Why wouldn't you choose something in the middle? Don't eat fully raw meat. Buy good quality products from local farmer. Eat a lightly fried steak, boiled eggs with a thin yolk. Raw honey can be consumed without health risks. Do not completely give up gluten and carbohydrates.
There are lots of disinformation on the internet. I agree with many things Goatis say. But don't trust some blonde balding guy from youtube who has no medical education who says you need to eat fully raw meat to stay healthy.
