SEA Eagles star winger David Williams starts his day with three uncooked eggs in a glass for breakfast.
And that is part of the secret behind ``Wolfman's'' eye-catching form on the end of the Manly backline this season-
he eats his food in the raw.
He has released the caveman that lurks in every bloke, revealing that his diet consists of uncooked fruit, vegetables, fish and even meat.
Williams has embraced the big change in lifestyle since January and it has proved a winning recipe.
``It is just better for your body, you think of all the processed that everyone has and it is all crap,'' Williams said.
``Your body recovers better, you have more energy.''
Williams said he knows what he can eat and what he can't eat and adheres to the philosophy that the less you cook food the better it is.
``When you take something from it's raw state and tamper with it will mess with the level of energy you are going to get,'' Williams said.
``So you are only going to get half of what it would be if it was raw.''
Williams said the same principle applied when it came to eating meat.
``The fat part is the dangerous part so if you have lean meat that is fine,'' he said.
Lamb backstraps and eye fillet very thinly sliced are on Williams' menu.
``It goes along the theory that we have had how many million years of evolution we have always used to eat raw until 10,000 years ago,'' he said.
Williams said when he was introduced to the raw food diet he embraced it right away after has horror run with injuries over the previous four seasons.
``I thought why not give it a try because nothing else has worked so far and the proof is in the pudding as far as I am concerned,'' he said.
``
I've played 17 games and only missed one from freak accident.''
He said the improvement in the way he feels now was ridiculous.
``If I was to finish football l wouldn't go back to eating normally,'' he said.
His partner has also taken on the raw food diet.
When he goes to a restaurant he order his meat eras rare as possible or has a salad.
Williams said he cops plenty from his teammates but when he gave Jamie Lyon and Steve Matai a feed they loved it.
Williams also revealed he would love to stay with the Sea Eagles next season but is yet to be resigned.
And that is more food for thought.
