<p>I have spent the last year and a half eating primally and experimenting with this and I've finally figured out that eating pork really just doesn't agree with my stomach, but I don't understand why. I know that there is more polyunsaturated fat in pork (and with chicken) but would that really make such a big difference? I don't eat it often and I've tried both grass-fed and normal pork and there really doesn't seem to be a difference. The fat is especially tough on my tummy. </p>

<p>Eating pork that has not been cured (as in bacon) or marinated (vinegar) has been shown to cause blood coagulation and clotting as many as 5 hours after consuming it. Live cell analysis observed this. Cured and marinated pork did not produce this effect. The resulting symptoms can vary but lethargy and fatigue often occur. Apparently traditional cultures that rely on pork know this and prepare it accordingly.</p>

<p>It's also not impossible that you're allergic to pork. Some people can develop allergies to animal proteins.</p>

<p>It might be the omega 6. I don't know for sure. I feel sick after eating pork or chicken, too. I feel very slightly off after eating a lot of CAFO beef, so this the reason it might be omega 6 (since CAFO beef is higher in omega 6 than grass fed beef).</p> <p>btw, there is no such thing as grass fed pork. All pork raised in the US is fed corn which is about 5% omega 6 by calories. The pigs bioaccumulate omega 6 and their carcass can contain upwards of 25% omega 6 by calories. </p>

<p>Theoretically what would a "wild" pig eat exactly?</p>

<p>The problem.with pork is it gets fed garbage. I only do grass-fed pork as well.</p>

<p>I have been getting sick as well within an hour or so of eating it. I just read that it is one of the hardest foods to digest. So since I have IBS I'm assuming the digestion issue with pork is the reason. No other meat gives me these symptoms.</p>

<p>It makes me nauseous! A few years back my husband brought home honey ham for christmas, a half hour after eating it i threw up violently - he ate it too and was fine, happy, great, go figure!! He actually thought i pretended to vomit because he said it was the best thing he had ever tasted. The smell of raw bacon makes me gag, but i can eat it cooked, the fat seems to bother me the most. Are humans meant to eat pigs??? </p>
