Date: July 04, 2009 03:48AM Well folk, liddld23 has been banned. liddld23 wasn't interested in getting support in their raw diet, but was looking to have some fun debating the pros and cons of cooking.
Like I said, this is not the place for those kinds of debates. I will actively remove users who insist on debating an anti-raw food outlook. Re: EVERYTHING in moderation

Date: July 04, 2009 04:40AM Thank you for keeping us all on track Bryan!
Let's face it, I don't know about anyone else, but if I am ever in the mood for my choices an opinions to be debated and criticized, all I have to do is mention my preference for raw food to ...... well, ....... just about anyone at all. (outside of this forum) This is one place that I know I can always find support and encouragement, and often answers to my questions. And I know very well that I should really get over my enormous pet peeve about that "M" word - for some reason, just hearing it makes me see red! I must learn not to take the bait!!

Date: July 04, 2009 06:13AM I will echo your sentiments Jodi. I kind of expected that this discussion/debate would be stopped, and I appreciate that Bryan stopped it. After all, it really was against the rules.
But I didn't mind putting my 20 cents in until it happened! Like you said Jodi, the person might have left with something new to think about. If others didn't feel like dealing with it, that's fine too. I thought everyone handled it really well. And I'll add that I'm very impressed with the general quality of the forum these days. Thanks again Bryan! Re: EVERYTHING in moderation

Sure. Have ill-health 'in moderation' too. Ah, just realised Sapphire had answered in similar vein, but much better - great post, Sapphire! Also, HUGE thanks to Brian. I'd been thinking about replying to one of liddld23's points, but it would have been a complete waste of my time and energy. Thank goodness we have a firm moderator here! Edited 1 time(s).

Date: July 04, 2009 03:10PM As long as this message board has been around there
have been participants on it who have been pretty adamant in saying that the Human race has "adapted to cooked food." Adapted to it? Really. One needs look no further than SAD eaters obesity adaptation; SAD-eater poor health adaptation; the adaptation of nursing home residents; etc. The results speak for themselves. But people want to have their cake and eat it to. Though that's not how life works. Ever. Steve [www.meetup.com] [www.rawgosia.com] Re: EVERYTHING in moderation

If I am not mistaken, African Americans have about twice the risk of many types of cancer and vascular disease compared to white Americans. I believe this means our genes have adapted to a certain degree to cooked foods: The ancestors of white Americans had thousands of years on a cooked diet, whereas the ancestors of African Americans had only a couple of hundred. The only problem is, even people of European ancestry still get cancer and heart disease all the time. If our children and their children suffer through 100 million years of that, then maybe there will be humans who can truly thrive on cooked foods. Until then I prefer to stick with what has been working for billions of years. Re: EVERYTHING in moderation

Date: July 04, 2009 05:44PM There's a drugstore just up the street from my house and when I went in there today I walked past the huge amount of dead junk food they stock to get to the check stand (not with junk food :) the clerk asked me if I would like to buy some of the on sale candy bars they had on display at the check stand ? I said no thanks and finished my business there. As I was walking out I thought - thats convenient, you can buy dead food here that will make you sick and buy drugs here at the same time to symptom suppress so your cured. Such a bargain.

Date: July 04, 2009 06:14PM I'll concede there are genetic predispositions
on what types of illnesses each SAD eater gets, but the bottom line is that if a condition is not caused then there will be no incidence or occurrence in the first place. There is a reason why cooked food causes health issues: it toxifies the bloodstream. No doubt, different populations have different health habits than do others. But, ultimately, the condition of the blood is what determines one's level of health; not one's ethnicity. Can the Human body often cope for many decades on a SAD diet? Yes, it can. But you're playing form of Russian Roulette in the process. And that's not very rational in any context, regardless of one's ethnicity. And, ultimately, most SAD eaters will be greatly incapacitated by the time they reach 80 years old, far short of their potential. And I don't ever see the prospect of the Human body ever adapting to cooked foods. Not in a trillion years. Because the DNA in all living things rests in the fundamental the laws of Nature; which do not entail anything cooked/burned. In fact, all cancers are linked to some form of burning or similar unnatural acts/processes. So to think that DNA could ever change to support that, and still sustain life as we know it, is a complete contradiction. All life on this planet began and evolved for billions of years in a RAW world, not a cooked one. And cheating on that law is the biggest culprit for what creates most of the physical suffering we see in the world today. Steve [www.meetup.com] [www.rawgosia.com] Edited 1 time(s).

Date: July 05, 2009 06:46PM I guess I am late to the party. I would like to have seen this banned person explain diabetes, heart disease, cancer, and all the other health ailments out there and why people are getting them and why first world nations are so sick. For the first time, the average age of an American has declined. That was news about a year and a half ago. Why is it declining? I'll let you decide.
People are getting sicker and sicker with every passing generation. If you don't think that eating all the processed, non-nutritional, cooked and dead animal muscle isn't contributing to these sicknesses, you're delusional. Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
