Duration : 0:1:53
The evolution of …
The evolution of using cooked food has already occcured many hundreds of thousands or at least many tens of thousands of years ago. The raw vegan humans are the exceptions of which more evolution would have to occur.
Now do you understand me?
I will say one …
I will say one thing for those green smoothies..the days i do drink them i do feel better in my joints..alot less pain..sometimes i just cant make myself drink one first thing when i wake up tho..but im trying.
@toolsnfire: I …
@toolsnfire: I think I’d get a little hungry before then, lol..in fact, Im hungry now! I cant wait 1000 yrs. haha
@greentolean: thats …
@greentolean: thats probably true, but i guess i could raise me an organic cow but i cant see me running out there w/my cleaver hacking it to bits, lol..and water is toxic, air is toxic, about everything now is toxic..u just have to do the best u can do and i pray over my food which biblically is suppose to cleanse it…people are still living to 100 that are not vegetarians or living organically so i guess alot is immune system and/or genetics…thanks for your comment.
Adequate evolution …
Adequate evolution can change things within a physiology over the course a just some thousands of years.
Nonsense, it’s not …
Nonsense, it’s not a magic cure to great health. I know what I’m talking about. Though those that include adequate animal foods will be the healthiest.
No, though that can …
No, though that can be a ‘hazy’ recommendation. It’s about respectful awareness of what the body more or less needs as indicated by ‘appropriate’ desire, and which can be shown by physical indications by the body. It’s a diverse issue, numerous conditional and nuanced answers. I understand your points too. Quantity, balance, and quality are all important factors in this.
Wait a minute. …
Wait a minute. What do you mean the body desires? Do you mean like heroine users desire heroine? Or smokes desire smoking? Sugar and other chemicals that go into processed foods are proven to be addictive.
I have never been 100% raw but when I was close for 30 days I felt the best I have felt in years. Things I thought were part of being 40 went away. When I returned to my Western diet due to “desire” my bloodshot eyes, joint pains, headaches, fatigue, skin blemishes, etc. all came back.
I agree with you …
I agree with you koko, there is nothing wrong with eating meat – if you follow the biblical rules. The problem is meat is no longer “clean.” The bible says not to eat the fat of the meat and I feel that’s because that is where toxins etc. are stored. Meat is not very unhealthy with all the steroids, and and worst of all the conditions the animals are kept in and what they are fed. The feed is highly toxic in many cases and it does get passed into the milk, the flesh and the reproductive sys.
I dont know where u …
I dont know where u all get your statistics on people before stoneage?? eating raw food..because u cant get any further back than adam and eve which it talks of their sons raising meat and farming..so meat eating was around then as well..they also had fire..eating raw veggies is great, nothing wrong w/that but human beings have always been omnivores eating both plant and animal protein including dairy..still many live to100 yrs old..but I agree modern day additives & processing are harming us.
its probably better …
its probably better to not comment on things you know nothing about…what raw food dieters have long term health problems? Right, none.
This is brilliant …
This is brilliant to here that she had less fear to do stuff, oh what a joy raw food brings to those who find this way of life!
OOOOo comon give …
OOOOo comon give her the mic.damn it
dmr0binson,
Please …
dmr0binson,
Please cite statistics for long-term health problems raw foodists face. You know, like, heart disease, diabetes mellitus, and degenerative joint disorders for those that eat cooked. Thanks.
She was never ill …
She was never ill and she was walking 5 miles per day by age 2 — we started walking her 2 miles perday by the time she was 18 months (started walking at 9 months).
I cannot stress how important it is to walk your children — alot of their learning comes by way of dynamic coordination — I would mix in songs, stories, and lessons; combine this with a raw food diet and voila — genius, smile.
We got off the raw food kick as it was diffictult back then and very few were doing it. 80% now.
thanks for sharing …
thanks for sharing octobox.
just wondering if your daughter was getting enough calories while raw – especially while fruitarian? genuinely want to know, before deciding where to go from where i’m currently at with my diet.
look up victoria …
look up victoria boutenko.
green smoothie: basically any green, water, and fruit.
thirdly, only …
thirdly, only within the last few hundred years have such extremely degenerated foodstuffs such as white flour and refined sugar reached the masses. DO SOME RESEARCH dmrObinson
secondly, only …
secondly, only within the past few thousand years have cooked foods comprised such a large percentage of the human diet, which is due to the proliferation of technology and the growth of civilization.
what did man do …
what did man do before he had the capacity to make fire (before the stone age 500,000 years ago)? 500,000 is nothing compared with the 1,500,000,000 years during which humanity and its genetic forebears lived and developed exclusively on raw food.
Cooking breaks down …
Cooking breaks down fibers and increases the availability of nutrients (but over-cooking also destroys some nutrients). No known indigenous diet is all-raw (although most include some raw foods); even tropical peoples cook some of their foods. Cooking food dates back about 200,000 years, meaning there is time for us to have adapted to it. Coming off a typical American diet of junk food you’re likely to see quick results, but raw-food dieters face long-term health problems.
YES!
YES!
i need to lose …
i need to lose weight in 2weeks, so does the raw food diet help?
Tools and fire made …
Tools and fire made man, Homo sapiens.
Could we become a new kind of humanity with the ‘new’ ‘human’ raw food culture of eating. Realize how much of the plants we consume are products of human selectional development. There not ‘wild’, per se.
Any food can be bad for the body if over consumed, along with other lifestyle factors. Let your body direct you, beware of dietary philosophies that conflict with what the body desires to thrive. Balance. Performance.
I raise my daughter …
I raise my daughter raw for 4 years — mostly fruitarian 2 1/2 years then mostly raw for 1 1/2 years. She was very meditative and sang all the time. We moved, owing to my wife and I’s long standing addiciton to cooked foods back to a vegan diet (50% raw 50%) cooked. My daughter showed no significant change, in her complexion or demeanor and she started “growing” normally though I think the period of raw foodism stunted her growth.
Not that height is indicative to health.
Now 60-80% raw
