im 26 now and been raw for 10 months.

A question for those long term raw eaters.. do you ever reach a plateau where the feeling of rejuvinating, detoxing and youthing cease?

I went vegan in 1999 at age 33; Med. raw around '05, then I kicked it up a notch and got serious around '07. Went 95-98% raw and have been that way until this day.

I don't feel the "plateau". I always feel full of energy and am always "ready to go". I operate at a fairly high fitness level though, so that may have something to do with it.

At age 26 and raw you should be bouncing off the walls! grinning smiley

Although depending what your prev. diet way, at 10 months you could easily still be in detox mode.

I became a pescetarian at age 12, vegan at 18, and when I was 19 I started incorporating large amounts of raw foods into my diet and cut out almost everything unnatural. Today I still eat at least 50% raw. Lots of fruit, green smoothies, some nuts and seeds, blended soups, hummus, etc. No wheat, no sugar.

40.
In my experience, plateau has always been the sign that it's time to improve something. For example, to eat higher percentage of raw, or simpler, more juicy fruit, experience more sunshine, rest, exercise.
