The only thing i wouldn't eat raw is chicken
These people are big on raw.

I don't like raw steak or sausages either
I eat most of my food raw, but if I've frozen it I'll look it good. Well rare. Just heat it through and brown slightly. Chicken is fine rare, you just need to cook it pretty slowly. 150 for 60 minutes will have it good and it will still be pink but warm through. Blast it under the grill after to crisp it up
Not sure what difference this is supposed to make, it's not like cooking will change the content of the food
In fact slow cooking something is the best way, pre-digests the meat and all the goodness goes into the broth which you can then drink. Basically no loss at all

warmed through and browned - fuckign cooked LOLI said I eat the vast majority of my food just warmed through and browned apart from the chicken which I slow cook.

40C - 122F/50C --Calpains begin to denature and lose activity till around 40C, cathepsains at 50C. Since enzyme activity increases up to those temperatures, slow cooking can provide a significant aging effect during cooking. Meat should however be quickly seared or blanched first to kill surface microbes.
50°C -- Meat develops a white opacity as heat sensitive myosin denatures. Coagulation produces large enough clumps to scatter light. Red meat turns pink.
R>>>are Meats: 50°C is the early stages of juiciness in meats as the the protein myosin, begins to coagulate . This lends each cell some solidity and the meat some firmness. As the myosin molecules bond to each other they begin to squeeze out water molecules that separated them. Water then collects around the solidifyed protein core and is squeezed out of the cell by connective tissue. At this temperature meat is considered rare and when sliced juices will break through weak spots in the connective tissue
60°C -- Red myoglobin begins to denature into tan colored hemichrome. Meat turns from pink to brown-grey color. -- Meat suddely releases lots of juice, shrinks noticebly, and becomes chewy as a result of collagen denaturing which squeezes out liquids.
>>>Medium -- Well Meats: Collagen shrinks as the meat tmeperature rises to 60C more of the protein coagulates and cells become more seggregated into a solid core and surrounding liquid as the meat gets progressively firmer and moister. At 140-150 the meat suddenly releases lots of juices, shrinks noticeably and becomes chewier as a result of collagen shrinkage. Meat served at this temperature is considered medium and begins to change from juicy to dry.
70°C -- Connective tissue collagen begins to dissolve to gelatin. Melting of collagen starts to accelerate at 70C and continues rapidly up to 180F.
Well Done Slow Cooked Meats: Falling apart tenderness collagen turns to gelatin at 70C. The meat gets dryer, but at 160F the connective tissues containing collagen begins to dissolve into gelatin. With time muscle fibers that had been held tightly together begin to easily spread apart. Although the fibers are still very stiff and dry the meat appears more tender since the gelatins provide succulence.
NOTES: At 140°F changes are caused by the denaturing of collagen in the cells. Meat served at this temperature med-rare is changing from juicy to dry. At 160°F/ 70°C connective tissue collagen begins to dissolve to gelatin. This however is a very lengthy process. The fibers are still stiff and dry but meat seems more tender.
