No Fruit Just Fauna. Many have so ruined their metabolisms from incorrect diet they become pure fatarians with little or no carbohydrate.

Update 2012: I can easily fast 22 hours a day by having one meal only of meat or omelet. It's so much fun--fauna-fasting. And it gives you the looks. Meat-eaters have structures to their faces and bodies: just look at the movie stars of old who ate it at every course, without any thought! Now discount all the vegan lies you bought. But make sure your meat is cruelty-free and certified organic: no pesticides, hormones or anti-biotics or you'll lose the warm elated feelings you've sought.
Man is a fat-frugivore. He is first a fat-eater with the ability to eat fruit. But the faunivore human is one whose ability to eat fruit was damaged. If through a history of overindulgence in fruit, starch and sugar he developed hyperinsulinism the case may be he ends up a pure faunivore, an exclusive eater of animal foods and herbs. So although all men are fat-frugivores the ratios of fat to fruit may change. Some people are more like the apes: frugi-faunivores i.e. mainly fruit-eaters with biological adaptations to eat fat. The faunivore human has found that animal protein and fat are essential to his health but carbs aren’t. the following is Peter’s self-discovery after embarking on paleo-fasting with omelet or steak every 60 hours:
Hi Karen. I love Paleo-Fasting. It has changed my life and made me so happy every day. It gives me so much energy and enthusiasm. I was a dull log but now I’m so excited I can’t sit quiet. I don't want to go back to my former diet and I’ve ceased discussing this with anyone for they would only deny it. I just feel too good now like I'm going places. Now I’m able to fast 60 hours after an omelet and it s wonderful. I wake up in the morning with so much energy ready to take down the world feeling between paradise and eternity. Thanks to you for showing me how to fast. Ciao your friend for life Pietro
The fasting combined with fat results in tiny tummy and brainy brilliance. After one year of fat-fasting into complete metabolic recovery I can enjoy the fat-frugivorous diet--the reversals between detox (grapecure) and rebuilding (fat) is a wonderful lift and a divine gift. But first I had to counterbalance the sugar-inundated system with exclusive fauna fasting for one year.
TINY TUMMY BRAINY BRILLIANCE
Hyper-sensitives can really feel how carb stimulates fat storage and other profound metabolic hormonal changes. Hyperinsulinism which crams fat into cells and water logs the legs into “tree trunks” is so hereditary that one must go the other way to achieve balance: Delete the carb-component and one’s life and looks change dramatically for the better. As it is genetic he suddenly doesn’t resemble anyone in his whole family—amongst white pasty polar bears there is one shiny sorrel steeple!
Seem strange? Remember that all great truths began as blasphemies. Protein and fat is fully and nutritionally complete for the human omnivore but over the last 30 years we’ve been severely brainwashed to eat predominantly produce with grains resulting in obesity and the other degenerative diseases of civilization (see “forbidden seed”). We’re on the wrong page and its getting worse as the government and medical “consensus panels” chime in under pressure from raw-foodists campaigns over the internet. The hunter vs. farmer skeletons tell all.
MEAN (FAT-FAMISHED) RAWFOODISTS
Don’t Get Drawn In!
Don’t get drawn into the raw food movement. Every time I got involved with rawfoodists I witnessed anger, rage and rudeness. It’s really quite unbelievable since one would “think” they would be the gentlest on earth if what they say about meat-eating is correct and true--namely that it creates violence and just eating raw food makes one gentle. Not true. The fat-deprived brain becomes uncontrollably violent especially when combined with sugar-inundation and bloat from eating so much high-water sweet fruit. Also they are depriving themselves of categories of food they want or need. Diet dogma is destructive. Eat raw when you can, but of primary importance is your fat and protein needs. Paul Bragg taught us this—he weekly ate a piece of fish though he ate raw produce most of the time. Fat connects you to spirit and properly fuels thy brain, heart, glands and certainly skin. You’ll see a sheen and become quite lean. You’ll feel keen—but all-raw and no-fat means mean. The hostile encounters I’ve had with rawfoods groups have been despicable and unrepeatable. What they have I do not want.
I myself found that produce confused things as I was recovering from such drastic fat and protein deprivation. Dry skin became smooth and moist during the fat-fast but became dry again when going the other way. Damaged metabolisms usually evince malabsorption syndrome—the food goes out as it went in. That means raw vegetables become excruciatingly uncomfortable to digest—I’ll never forget waiting all day to feel good again, praying it would just move down. But fat was so smooth it nourished and revived the system. What a paradox! When I regained metabolic balance only fruit worked with fat—not thorny vegetables--and I became a very happy fat-frugivore, the way man was designed to eat. For the true faunivore human plants are much harder to digest than meat so there they sit and the whole process bogs down. It may seem incredible after all the brainwashing about the necessity of eating mostly plant foods. But the transformation of some into perfect health by fat is so powerful they never want to “change categories” from fat to carb again—the effect is so evident they never want to be “kicked out of ketosis”.
SMALL MEALS PUNCTUATING THE FAST
In the one type of paleo-fasting you’re actually fasting all the time punctuated with bites of fruit or fat. While recovering, plant food will be impossible to digest and as Billings says meat is so much easier in prehistory it was always eaten separately. So much for natural “hygienic” instructions to always eat them together! Atkins found that the least likely thing people are allergic to is meat. I once knew a hypersensitive who after years of promiscuous eating and bulimia zapped the immune system so much that she became a universal reactor to all food--she learned her “ugliness” was just reaction. When she started to eat fruit, nuts or dairy followed by fasting her reactions lessened daily. She learned how the effect of today’s food is solely determined by her total load on the immune system yesterday. All the fat and protein she was eating enhanced immunity. Fat-satisfied at last, on the fast she ceased thinking of food and her reactions and started attending to angels, animals and ancestral logic. Her health improved overnight and she became fascinated with the infinite world beyond eating. This incredible release from addiction is the auto-reaction to eating the correct diet from the beginning for man.
WITHDRAWAL FROM COMFORT FOODS
When you don’t get your allergic comfort food (carbs) you’ll get fatigued (withdrawal) and think you need it or have to have it: At first you may feel sleepy and fatigued as the system isn’t used to low carb/high fat, but in under a week you’ll be swinging, having gone through the fire as the new enzymes are established and the old comes out allowing room for the new. A whole new bloodstream and normal balance will create real pep--the heightened energy of the Neolithic hunter. Sleep on and look forward, for the fat-fast is completely pain-free. You may even ask “are things really happening?” Yes, but you don’t realize it because there is no hunger.
CLEANSING REACTIONS
Fat can be frightening due to the generational fears surrounding us. I gave up telling people what I was doing as I experienced weird cleansing reactions from predictably in this order: the intestine, the lungs then the skin. When fat-fasting (one small morning meal) these amazing events occurred: (1) intestines: I took colon cleansing herbs--psyllium husk, ginger and alfalfa leaf powders and eliminated 50 feet of mucoid plaque--“”ropes”--in one week. The abdomen suddenly became very flat. (2) lungs. Then I had asthma and productive coughing for a week after which that area cleared as glucagons dilated all airways. My breathing became deep and clear. (3) skin. A “week of welts” all over the body followed as the skin system elimination took over from the completed intestinal-lung cleansing. Every cell “dumped” years of carb build-up and I resembled someone with measles--the way a high-energy engine (like a child) eliminates quickly.
I felt and looked so different after this magnificent and magical reconfiguration, and knew it was the beginning of a new life as old layers unpeeled back to the root. My entire scalp itched intensely and the hair became suddenly fuller and the shape of the head longer and narrower. After this three-week rite of passage I realized I had rebuilt and cleansed the body while eating only fauna-animal foods and fasting. As soon as this started happening I decided to facilitate the process by reducing the one meal to a tiny bit of fat. The process quickened and all cells unscrambled, dumped and reconfigured. The reward was a whole new body built with HQ—the highest quality food. Bloating may occur as the cells dump and the body holds water to dilute the poison—just endure as you’re almost there, as you go from mesomorph (a bit rounded) to ectomorph (sharply defined thin and flat). You have reached that point in the cleansing and rebuilding process where the morphology--size and shape--has completely changed.
FUN FABULOUS PAIN-FREE FAT-FASTING
It’s so inefficient to be hungry all the time or have to eat again—so eat fat to not be hungry while you burn fat. I want only to fast each day to be close to God and see all the miracles happening: they’re always there but with all our energy down in the gut who can apprehend them all? But staying high it’s one magic coincidence after another. When I began introducing this concept in groups everyone wanted to argue against it—they want to eat two or three meals a day out of pure fear of what feels like “nothingness” to them. The truth is they’re using food as entertainment--a device to avoid anxiety. But this fear will soon be replaced with miraculous insights and excellent work habits. You will learn to love the fast more than the feast which only brings energy down from the higher world.
3 SYSTEMS: DIGESTIVE OR ELIMINATIVE ENERGY?
Once we’re into the fast we shouldn’t eat one thing for there are three systems: digestive, assimilative and eliminative. 85% of our energy is in one or the other and it can’t be in more than one. If you let the sequence go through you’ll have amazing elimination the next day as the energy stays high in the head. If one is fasting the 85% of available energy for digestion automatically now shifts to assimilation (clear beautiful skin) and elimination (each morning a huge package). This was so anti-dogma it was a veritable science discovery. Even while eating “binding” cheese for the one meal the evacuation was made perfect from the daily fast. The truth is the colon needs fat and with energy vested in elimination the results are a miraculous “cleansing”. If we’re into the eliminative phase--only to eat again--the system must go back to digestion, but if we allow the sequence to go through we are eliminating all the debris that makes one ugly—“ordinary”. With the breakfast-only (Ramadan) plan I became skinny--not scrawny, but more like a gazelle: quick and taut, shiny and fawnlike because it was all-elimination all day long.
The fruitarian became a fawn only after electing this temporary life of fat-fasting. Until then evacuation was unstable and the body showed protuberances. Forget all the constant food issues and arguments, just stay with one fatty meal and go right into ketosis and fasting. You’ll see it’s fun to fast in a much higher state of perception and problem-free existence. All is overcome and all is made clear as the total load (on the immune system) is daily reduced and each day you are bloating less. You’re entering a whole new life separate from the mass. You’ll see the astounding implications of the heavy-carb diet--of that other world where just about everyone is fat. You’ll begin to notice all the hodgepodge people place in their shopping carts, how fat has become the norm and how you are advancing towards a sleek futuristic appearance—no more forlorned.
FASTING AND TIMES OF DAY
I love the seasons of the day. In predawn mornings I love the one meal followed by energetic but calm creative work. At noon I’m “off” and listen to music or some other means of relaxation and inspiration in the “aft-fast”. Only in leisure--when “off”--can I really appreciate these things. There is a total difference depending on the mode we are in how the senses effect us. It is the times of day and your peak periods vs. leisure that will determine when you eat your one meal and when you do your most creative work--when it’s effortless. Paradoxically it is always when I’m “off” that instantly the creative is unleashed. Yes only in leisure does it blossom. Leisure makes the creative artist busy all day so optimize each moment to the spirit of fasting after your one meal. I don’t want “frequent nibbling” as Atkins advised for then I’m missing the highest thoughts from the skies! The “aft-fast” is a blast. “Fat” means spirit and this tremendous power and glory is infused as heaven aligns with earth through fasting--your emptiness attracts higher vibration. Then energy stays in the head while the world is stuck in the gut and need to “suck up”. That fat becomes an electrical conduit to the source.
STAYING SLIM WHILE FILLED TO THE BRIM
Staying slim is a worldwide goal and it’s a constant problem keeping fat off the frame. The anorexic has already felt so battered by the world of big people she must stay slim for whatever self-image she has left. This is a perfect plan to stay slim and fun-fast without dire results. Some people have not been successful getting slim on three meals a day as the legs become tree trunks indicating too much toxicity. In this diet I am advancing mini-fasting is critical—after an initial cleansing crisis you’ll be slim for life with no toxic reactions. It’s the localization of all eating into one meal that does the trick. I was a skinny (scrawny) fruitarian but when turning to the Atkins diet was dismayed at the rolls of fat on chest, backside, thighs. Only the fast worked and adding fruit after recovery sealed the deal in a tremendous way to feel.
FAST FOR ELIMINATION INTO SUCCESS
The formula is: all disease is obstruction, all recovery elimination bringing all success by attraction. You’re coming up to the finish line. For perfect success on Monday I’m prescribing a two-day 60-hour fast from Friday to Monday morning’s predawn meal. You can be so blue, jealous, angry, bloated, constipated or wrecked (recovering from a binge) on Friday. But then you embark on your two-day fat fast and you’ve now stepped into a new world. It’s this realization alone which releases PHF so as early as Saturday your reality changes to joy by intention alone. Then just look forward to champion status Monday a.m. Be happy—you must fast first and now you’re doing it. Right from the outset you experience the black and white difference between your inferior (lower fleshly) and fasting (higher spiritual) self—not on Monday but as soon as Saturday by your intention alone. What a joyous life: daily fruit-fat-fastarianism.
If you’ve been carb-binging (carbs being the “normal” binging food according to Parade) then you likely need a sledge-hammer to get through the cemented intestine. Sugar and starch hits the gut like lead for when one binges like that just the combo of bread and jam will create cement. You’ll find that eating normally won’t break through--only fasting with herbs (like psyllium and bentonite) breaks the block--it’s that serious. At this transition time the sludge contents of sugar and starch actually does you a favor acting as an appetite-suppressant like having a pillow in the stomach! But thank God that with each moment the bulldozer is moving the mountain. Congratulations. You’ve now embarked on the real vacation of your life, one with guaranteed rewards.
DELETE THE THRIFTY GENE
I have met modern Egyptians who were fat, having inherited the thrifty gene from the days of the Pharaohs when they were plagued with famines. I too inherited a thrifty gene and yet have little fat, having made the gene inoperative through the elimination of starchy carbs and too much food. If hyperinsulinism and the thrifty gene is hereditary your whole family may be very fat while one member is brown and ultra-thin with low-carb high-fat and fasting—thus pulling the plug on the thrifty gene. Deleting carb makes it null, void and of none effect! The no-hunger fat-fast is much more fun than the feast for fasting is letting go of earth and soaring to the heights where all things are now possible. Fat-fasting is no-hunger energy and bliss. If you want a piece of fruit half way through the day’s fast try it and note the symptoms. If its ok enjoy your fat-frugivorous life of bliss. But as I was healing and regaining lost balance the hunger it evoked was not worth it. I wanted to stay even in a state of non-craving having nothing to do with will-power. After a year of this kind of ketotic sailing I finally achieved the True Diet of Man, the Biblical diet of the Holy Land: raisins, figs, nuts, cheese—and leaves and fish on occasion.
A Ramadan fast would be just skipping lunch each day--fasting 7 meals a week. Have a breakfast of fat and fruit if you want and if still hungry nuts or cheese. You won’t be hungry until night. This makes fasting so easy you won’t even consider yourself fasting but will just enjoy your day maximally productive until dinnertime. Fasting is so beneficial: you’ll witness miraculous debt-cancellations, finding things lost, solving all problems and attracting what you want—miracles. That’s fasting and you get there through fat and the Neolithic diet to which we are perfectly adapted.
FAT FOR IMMUNITY AND MAXIMUM DIGESTION
Since fat is easier than plants to digest, cultures eating mostly meat with only 5% carb show no heart problems, diabetes or obesity. Undigested food pockets and a body filled with debris is so immuno-suppressed disease takes over. The fauna-faster is fasting on fauna, cheese or eggs as one would fast on grapes. What looks like counter-cleansing when viewed through the detox matrix is actually a way of staying in ketosis where the fun is, since you’re living on your own fat which is the highest energy (ketones). The brain and heart loves this fat and you’ll see the skin and glands like it too as all rashes, dryness and wrinkles from incomplete assimilation and elimination are replaced by soft moist youthful skin, vigor and superior immunity.
The more fat (in relation to carb) you eat in the one meal the higher the “ketotic ratio” and the more appetite-suppressive, energetic and easy the fast will be. You are now living on the fastest diet known to man as the fat-fast works 80% faster than a water fast. The body tends to collect fat especially with the thrifty gene but a no-carb fat deletes that problem: Since fat-with-carb is the biggest elevator of insulin, delimiting plant food works very well for as the ketotic ratio of fat to carb lowers, the magic is lost. Keeping the ketotic ratio high (without produce) means the fat melts right into the body and the “tight” satisfaction takes over for the day--the hunger trap is sealed and replaced with energetic satisfaction.
HAPPY FATARIANS
What a paradox that after twenty years seeking purity through fruit I would end up recovering by eating animal fat. It was a contradiction being so restricted as a fruitarian (the “superior diet”) yet remaining scrawny and wasted--but now I had remarkable health as the body achieved structure and glow. Yet it meant constant collision with culture since most of the public and physicians agree with either the high-carb low fat diet including grains or the lowcarb diet—but not a life of constant reversals between both. Temporarily only the fauna of one cheese omelet a day took the collapsed shack to a sturdy castle and once deficiency burnout ended I again craved fruit. This is neat, predictable and logical.
INSUBSTANTIAL MANNA VS. EARLY AMERICA
The wandering Israelites wanted meat so God rained down quail--they didn’t want the “insubstantial manna” of plant food. This reminds me of America early in this century. People were ashamed not bringing meat to a pot-luck as plant food was regarded as inferior. So much today are just cheap concoctions of plant food and grains. It doesn’t seem insubstantial because it fills and makes fat but it falls so short of man’s needs he keeps eating junk to feel satisfied. This increased craving is instigated by constantly elevated insulin and then hypertension- seeking-a-fix. The paleo potluck would be: someone brings a roast, another the leaves and dressing, another a bowl of grapes, another guacamole, another some steamed vegetables, another a desert of nuts and raisins. How much neater and efficient it is to eat whole foods—not concoctions created in kitchens--and then fast without thought or pang. Have your daily feast and then fast--an even bigger feast of inspiration and joy is coming your way today.
THE MENTAL
The new life of fasting after fat and fruit will avoid all protein/calcium deprivation as we become radically healthy creatures. The difference is felt supremely on the mental level as the brain is rightly nourished with protein and fat. True genius is a youthful mind: this is a mature mind meaning perpetually open. The immature mind is fixed, rigid, closed--it shuts down at a certain point and tenaciously clings to limited ideas. The old mind which is closed, stagnant and lifeless can happen in the teenage years while the young mind remains young by continuous nourishment from new ideas--its not afraid of new concepts or surrendering old ones.
This new and youthful mind must be complete in its unique self-expression but this enormous freedom can only be gained by fueling the engine aright. If not, the mind gets old acting in line with deception and lifeless ideas that seem so “living” and “loving” coming from “live foods” while avoiding “dead or cooked” ones. The opposite is the truth for the dead immature malnourished mind sticks to deception hypnotized by the majority view. He will go through the motions but not be truly alive--acting without imagination, originality or creativity though he may be “trendy.” The dense fogged mind always falls in with the majority view or what “they” see as truth. This will no longer be true of you—the majority of the “few”.
Yoga means integration and this comes from contacting and uniting with the source through the properly nourished brain. Then uniqueness shines through with true self-expression, forever becoming and eternally new. With spontaneous creativity as a vessel of God (the only source) one is always ahead because he’s always himself—pure which is truly secure. Don’t hold on to counterfeit dogma—let outmoded concepts like “fruitarianism” go. Fast for revelation after rightly fueling the new receptive brain. Now you are truly spiritual, being led by spirit not flesh. Being led is “prompted” as the right words arise in consciousness.
VIVA LAS VEGAS
Do you feel like life is passing you by? Do you fantasize about being in the flashy lights of Las Vegas or other sparkling places on earth? Are you dissatisfied with your present situation? I can promise you that if eating the wrong food you feel lousy no matter where you are. But with proper nourishment and fasting every minute becomes a flashing scintillating miracle as you ascend to heavenly perceptions. This is better than Vegas.
The bad eater is always on the go rushing about and traveling, searching for happier greener pastures. Dissatisfied, he never stops. The faster on the other hand needs only to stay wherever he is and just enjoy. It’s called mind traveling through space where past and future unite. This mental transport far exceeds elusive gains from physical relocation or jet-setting, and what a trip! Soar to the heights after fat or fruit and then just fast while staying home like Rome: Expand the moment which becomes “fat” with new insights. Vegas is an empty though loud distraction compared to your life, your environment, your experience of the times of day and seasons. Only in your own situation is there real life as your little cabin becomes a castle.
The trick is not to “be young” but to look young when old. Anyone can look young when young so where’s the achievement there? Instead, eat fat then fast to separate from crazy corn-fed cronies (be rare). Then in culture infuse your bold truth—be a scare!
KK Fat-Fasting Revelations: (1) Pain? It’s got to hurt to work. (2) Fast, and take it on faith that nothing happening indicates everything’s going to happen: op-truth. (3) If you’re too dependent on people, it seems God will remove them. Don’t attach or hang on to people—just God and He’ll change the reactions of the clod
