Do you have a reference for saturated fat causing better absorption of nutrients? I want to write a post about this, but I can't find anything.

Calcium can be supplied by kale which is rich in calcium, and low carb nuts like macadamians. Magnesium and potassium is acceptionally rich in shrimps. Having just one bunch of celery provides about 1500mg potassium (almost half the RDA).

Protein contains various forms of acids due to it containing sulphur, phosphorus, and nitrogen etc.. reducing protein and adding fat may reduce the overall protein burden (protein can lead to acidosis, check your urine pH with pH strips, protein diets encourage severe acidosis pH 5.5 or less, causing muscle cramp via acids, so lowering protein may decrease cramp for this reason. Cramp maybe reduced with high fat diet because I learnt that saturated fats help our bodies better assimalate calcium. Protein can raise uric acid levels which may cause cramp, so again reducing protein may help for this reason. The Eskimos were suppost to have done so well with a 80% RAW meat/fat/fish diet and 20% cooked, now I have not done well, was it because I cooked all my food, was it that I did not eat all the bones and insides like the eskiimos. They ate the skins of animals raw giving them vitamin C. whilst we cook everything and alter the bioavailability of nutrients to our meat/fish.

I only left the roasts in the fridge for 3 weeks so I'm not sure if one more week would have "done them in".

I obsessively smelled the roasts every time I checked on them and they never smelled bad, even at the 3 week mark.

How cold is your fridge?

The only precaution I took was setting my fridge to the absolute coldest setting before setting up the roasts.

I've tried it this week with a slab of rib roast cut into 2lb pieces, and after a week the pieces started to smell pretty bad, quite a strong odor. I was afraid to try them so I just chucked them. How does one know if the meat has spoiled, should there be a pleasant odor off dry-aged meat thats been aging for say 4+ weeks?

Thanks!!

Hah!

A couple of coworkers said they saw our video on the news as well. Outrageous!

Again, all thanks to you for introducing this cool idea.
