Date: December 27, 2011 01:19PM If you unquestionably accept the RDAs, RDIs, and other nutrient-intake guidelines set by this world’s medical organizations and government agencies, you’re going to be one confused raw foodist.
Raw fruits, vegetables, nuts, and seeds are the most nutrient-dense foods on the planet, right? So when we enter our diets into nutrient-tracker websites and software like cronometer, why do we sometimes come up short in a number of key nutrients? The truth is that the RDAs/RDIs are far from universal. If you actually look at the science you’ll see that those eating healthy diets have radically different needs than your average SAD eater. I decided to write an article looking into the confusion surrounding these eight key but nutrients.

Date: December 27, 2011 02:11PM It will take some time to read your article fully but one thing I'd like to mention are whole food supplements which I believe can be helpful for meeting nutritional needs and which are in no way the same as synthesized isolates. I personally can't consume 3 heads of greens daily, that's too much food for me. But I can add some green powder to a smoothie every day to good effect.
Thanks for the link, your dressing e-book looks interesting, I'll order a copy  .Re: Eight Nutrients Most Raw Foodists Don't Understand

Date: December 27, 2011 04:14PM Agree with most of the article other than the Zinc which i feel at 6mg for a male is far too low. Especially when we take into account how vegan and plant based diets are much richer in copper which is antagonistic to zinc.
