Date: August 12, 2011 07:00PM I k now that it's not all about calories... but I have been recently writing down my food and putting it through cronometer... and I was wondering if you would share what your daily calorie intake is and if it is different for a raw foodist ... how and why if at all?!? I'd really appreciate your wisdom on this. I am still having trouble getting enough Vitamin D and my B vitamins and amino's are low though i am taking a B suplement... i'm not sure i really notice a difference... my caloric intake is right around 1500-1800... don't really know what answers i'm looking for but just curious about what the raw foods world thinks about calories and it's importance etc etc... hope you are having a beautiful day

[Caveat: no idea here what my caloric intake is] How active are you? If you're athletic, you prolly need several hundred more calories than that. Re: Daily Calories???

Date: August 23, 2011 11:24AM What foods are you getting your calories from?
If it is largely fruits and vegetables i would up them as in my opinion for 1800 in a normal SAD diet you need about 2500 to equate to the same, possibly even more to get enough of a broad scope of amino acids and other nutrients. You wont get vitamin D from raw vegan foods so if you have poor sunlight, supplementation is necessary. There are now vegan society approved vitamin D sprays.
