Woman, 31, who eats raw meat & makes cheese with her spit says ditching junk food ‘transformed’ her life

A woman who eats raw meat and makes cheese with her own spit says ditching junk food has ‘’transformed’’ her life. Emily Ciosek, 31, also eats raw chicken and refuses to wash her hair.

The businesswoman, who is based in Michigan in the US, started eating raw steak back in May 2022 after reading about the health benefits and has since consumed up to 7lbs of raw meat per week - costing £55.

The 31-year-old tends to eat raw chicken, beef and pork for lunch every day.

Since changing her diet, Emily - who was previously living “a typical American lifestyle” - claims her mental health, spirituality, digestive system, and skin has improved. She also makes a lot of her own food products including raw butter and cream cheese - made with her own spit as it ‘’tailors the bacteria” to what her body needs.

Emily, who runs a self-development business and hosts a podcast, said: “At 21 I was partying really hard and eating a lot of junk food.

“Around that the same time I started doing yoga as an outlet into spirituality and then it became bigger and bigger. Someone recommended Weston Rowe, who was eating raw meat.

“I was following my soul and it told me to eat raw meat. It was so tasty, and I loved it. Strangers that don’t know me don’t know what to do about the raw meat thing.

“You get told in this society you will die if you eat raw meat. People that know me personally put in so much effort to support me, but they’re probably confused about why I’m doing this.

“I went into a practice of me experimenting and realigning with what felt right to me.”

Emily was 22 and living in New York City when her health started to “collapse”.

“All of a sudden I started to get UTIs , stomach infections and hair loss off and on in my 20s, and Western medicine was making it worse,” she said.

“My health was getting worse, and then I found natural medicine. I was certified as an Ayurveda health coach in June 2020.

“It’s an ancient Indian health lifestyle. It’s well-known for the different Indian herbs you can take to aid your health.

“It champions cooking from home and cooking with spices to handle the temperatures in your body. It uses different elements to describe different body types and balancing out health.”
