Sorry to be off-topic, but what is this site, I used it before and it was great but I can't find it anymore

Not totally 100%, as some damage will occur anyway, but yes its 99% safe.

ok

Why slow cooked fish taste MUCH better than raw? Is it just because of protein denaturation? I don't like raw mackerel, but I can easily eat it , when it is slow cooked.

Not sure about mackerel, but slow cooked salmon tastes a lot worse to me than raw salmon.

everyone is different, for example i don't like salmon at all (raw or slow cooked).
Anyway, maybe it's stupid question, but why does fish taste changes after slow cooking?

[dime]

Because heat alters molecules and cells, everything changes taste after cooking.

... but it is safe to consume as long as temperature is low, right?

It is never safe to eat cooked food, especially protein and fat.
Cooking time must also be as short as possible.
Best is to eat raw!

I have been drinking juice for one week (i use strainer for pulp)
My day looks like this:
2l of melon or orange juice + 60g OO, 5-9 egg yolks or 50-100g of fish

don't understand, I still have bloated belly and my legs feel weak and "heavy" when i'm jogging.
what reasons could cause it?

[Oscar]

Try less OO, like maybe half. I'm not sure why the bloated belly (yolks not fresh?), but is this enough food/energy for you for one day?

Try less OO, like maybe half.

ok, I will.

I'm not sure why the bloated belly (yolks not fresh?)

yolks are fresh. Every time when i reduce fibre intake i suffer from constipation and bloating. Very uncomfortable feeling

but is this enough food/energy for you for one day?

1800-1900 calories.

I gained 7 pounds because of overeating on fruits, ech... my never ending battle with weight so now i want to lose some body fat ... again.

I have not tried out the following myself, but your bloating might have something to do with inferior food combining. The ones that has been mentioned here on the wai forum are: Eat proteins away from whole fruit (wait at least 1.5 hours before you eat whole fruits) and: Do not combine avocado with sweet fruits.
But there are also other combinations that should be avoided to eat together.

In this article it is explained more, just ignore what they say about eating vegetables (we know we don't like veggies ! ) and just read the parts about the actual combinings of fruit groups.
It might or might not help you, just try and see.

thanks for link, but the thing is that...i don't eat whole fruits at all, only melon juice, olive oil and fish or 3-9 yolks.

hmmm.. I am thinking to change melon juice to honey or other fruit juice that has less sucrose, maybe that will help

[Maia]

When you make the melon juice, do you sieve it? I made cantaloupe melon juice today in the juicer and when I sieved it I noticed that it is actually quite pulpy/fibery.
So it you have not sieved it before, try that...

[Emeira]

When you make the melon juice, do you sieve it?

Yes, I strain all juice with a cheesecloth

That doesn't sound good to me at all. Are you not missing nutrients or something ?
