I got salmonellosis soon after I started eating yolks

[JeffC]

Thanks for the replies.

I've been doing one yolk per day for about a month now. It's going well. I'm not worried about it. I'd do more yolks if I weren't eating salmon every day. Hopefully I didn't scare off any potential newcomers.

I used to get severe abdominal cramps whenever I ate more than 4 eggs at the same time or close together......if I ate the same amount of eggs in stages, so the first 4 had been completely digested....then no problems......it wasn't bacterial infection. It was agony, I wanted to die......

Addendum: I consume six raw yolks per day now without any problems. I just increased the amount of yolks too quickly when I started out. I've been on the diet for about four years now, and I'm quite happy with it.
