Primal Diet Coaching

1st Annual Primal Diet Conference
2025-07-17 08:00 - 2025-07-20 19:30 (America/New_York)
Produced by The Primal Diet Coaches, PrimalDiet.net, and PRIMAL PLANITZ™

How This All Started

The Primal Diet community started in 1993 when Aajonus Vonderplanitz cured his cancer and other diseases with a diet of raw animal meats and fats and wrote the books We Want to Live Recipe for Living Without Disease.

Now, 30-years later, many of Aajonus’ students and clients have come together to testify about the health benefits and share their experiences on the Primal Diet.

What to Expect at the Conference

You’ll meet other Primal Dieters and hear about other’s experiences.

Whether you are a veteran or just heard about the diet, this is a great place to ask questions and tap in at your level.

Even if you don’t eat raw meat and are curious, we have no judgment. We all were there once. We’ll answer your questions and hold your hand as you explore this way of eating.

Experience Simply Grassfed at Burke’s Garden Farm where plenty of grass fed meats and dairy are grown, and eat some of the healthiest food on the planet.

Just the location in the glorious Burke’s Garden Valley “God’s Thumbprint” is worth the trip. Your experience will be magical.

Come make friends, learn, heal, grow, and celebrate life with other humans who want to live and see the natural path as the best way forward.

2024-12-22 16:00 - 18:00 (America/New_York)
Please note: Primal Diet 101 is a required prerequisite for any of our other meetings.

The hot baths are just as much a pillar of the Primal Diet as eating raw meat and fats. It will not matter how healthy we eat, if we don’t focus on removing daily the blockages in our lymph, circulatory, and nervous system from Plastic oils and toxins, the nutrients will never reach their destination.

We need to get our body temp up to 102 degrees and sustain it there for a minimum of 45-60-mins EVERYDAY in order to melt these Plastic oils and excrete them from our bodies through our skin. Working out will only get our bodies to 101 max.

Join us virtually on Sunday, December 22nd at 4p EST to learn about the importance of hot baths, how to prepare them safely, how to create a successful program for yourself, and even how to build your own healthy hot tub.
