Introduction
- Most people have grown up avoiding raw meat, always ensuring that it is prepared and cooked properly for fear of getting sick. However, a relatively new diet craze has emerged that encourages people to eat their meat raw. Celebrities including Uma Thurman, Demi Moore, Natalie Portman and Gordon Ramsay have hailed eating raw meat as a way to not only lose weight, but also feel healthier, happier and more energized.

Recommended Foods
- Becoming a raw meat eater usually includes hearkening back to our primitive forefathers and consuming only foods that are unprocessed, undomesticated, contain no chemicals or additives, and have not been subject to any genetic engineering. Your diet will consist mainly of:
- Some organic fruit and vegetables
- Raw, aged, or fermented meat and fish
- Organ meats
- Eggs
- Some dairy products
Step 1: Talk to an Expert
- Moving from eating cooked meat to uncooked meat is a relatively extreme change, so you should consult a raw food expert or nutritionist knowledgeable about raw meat diets about how to best make the change. He or she will likely advise you to move from eating cooked to raw meat gradually. A raw food expert can also provide you with more information on what you should and shouldn't eat and provide you with preparation strategies.
Step 2: Find a Supplier
- If you have decided to pursue a raw meat diet, it is unlikely that you will be able to get the foods you need from your local supermarket. Because of the risk of food poisoning, you can't just pick up a steak from your grocer and munch away. There are only certain cuts of meat that are acceptable to eat raw and specific ways to store and prepare them. Also, due to the raw foodists's desire to eat only unprocessed foods, you will likely be consuming only organic foods. Therefore, you will have to seek out a supplier from whom you can purchase the foods you require.
Step 3: Learn Preparation Techniques
- Again, because of the risk of becoming ill by consuming raw meat, ensure that you are highly knowledgeable on storage and preparation techniques. Most fowl cannot be eaten raw, but venison, beef, veal, lamb and certain types of seafood are safe for raw consumption, provided they are stored and prepared correctly. Get some recipe advice from a raw food expert, buy a raw food recipe book, or join a raw food forum online to learn how to eat a healthy raw food diet.
Conclusion
- Although eating raw meat may sound like a bad idea, keep in mind that some popular dishes such as sushi, steak tartare and carpaccio contain raw meat. If you are considering becoming a raw foodist, seek out advice from someone experienced with preparing and eating raw meat to ensure that you are familiar with the correct techniques.
