I have and posted it in another thread before you made this thread. If you are serious then you are the epitome of the crazy cult-like raw-foodists he is referring to.

What is there to be serious about? He said it; not me. Yes, it's only this amaze-a-ballz product that he's gone off raw slightly with. By the way, where is your thread? Odd that you didn't provide the linkie...

[www.rawfoodsupport.com]

"One of Matt Monarch's recent videos where he mentions how some raw foodists are CRAZY and shy away from anything if it's not technically 100% "raw". In this case, black gelatinized maca. I have to agree, it seems as if many individuals in the raw community treat the diet like it's a cult and if it's not raw, it's unhealthy or deadly. His ego seeps out in this one, calling himself "one of the cleanest men on the planet, guaranteed", but nonetheless I agree on the previously mentioned point.

[www.therawfoodworld.com]"

If something positively effects you but isn't raw, why shouldn't you use it? So you can still say you're "100% raw" as if it's an accomplishment of some sort or proves (it doesn't) you are healthier than someone who isn't 100% raw?

Maca is a radish type root veggie that has a lot of useful properties. Gelatinizing it takes the starch out. MM probably takes less than 5 grams of it a day.

Just another bw full moon vacuous snark thread.

100 percent raw is meaningless
fresh and whole is more important and includes raw

My problem with 100 percent raw is that I cannot say no to GrandMa's Apple Pie when I visit her. She put all her love into it.

Food has a social dimension.

You're right.

I'm going put a stop thinking of myself as 100% raw. While I am proud of myself for accomplishing staying this way, for the will power aspect, it really does seem to me, this far into it, as time to get over myself about that. There are far too many labels in this world as it is. I don't know how I let myself put this stupid one on myself for so long but now that I see the stupidity of it - I'm done with it.

Geez, really? Ouch! And what does the Full Moon have to do with it? Are you a MM fan boi type? You didn't seem like it.

Uh...erm...um...What I said. I don't care. Maybe "SueZ" has me pegged perfectly. Maybe I was just snarking on a Full Moon at MM. I am still irked that he blocked me from his channel for not fawning all over him and telling him that women should be allowed to keep their last names.

The point is......matt has been ranting for years how he has been 100% raw for x years
and now when someone points it out to him hes suddenly over the 100 raw thing?
rationalizing self righteous hypocrite.
I am sure thats not the only thing hes eaten thats not all raw
not that I care but hes being a punk about it.

So if someone eats 100% raw but uses a few health-promoting products that are not raw, lowering their intake to about 99.99% raw, they're a hypocrite by claiming they eat 100% raw? It's not all of the sudden, either, he's posted videos a long time ago saying that you don't need to be 100% raw in order to be clean and healthy, but that you should be on a 100% whole foods diet. You obviously cared enough to chime in and then insult him. You have an affinity for insulting people who are much more intelligent than you are... you must be the smartest man on the planet. Your diet is 100% perfect and everything you know can save the world from disease and malnourishment, right? Guess that's why you're stuck insulting people on a message board....

oh, here we go again.

>So if someone eats 100% raw but uses a few health-promoting products that are not raw

as I said, he should not have responded in the way that he did.
and of course, it's not "health promoting"
it's dried cooked junk, but that's besides the point.


>You obviously cared enough to chime in and then insult him.

yes the truth is insulting to some.

> You have an affinity for insulting people who are much more intelligent than you are


it's a curse. an addiction, if you will.
like my fruit addiction.

you boys should tell matt that he's on the wrong diet, by the way, he had a vid recently where he was eating guava and coconuts. dubious, no doubt.
too high in sugar, no doubt.

and passing that diet on to his little girl. dangerous.

it was a cute video actually.
he was carrying her in a front carrier and walking around his property.
horses and fruit trees, etc.
check it out.
you might like it.

>... you must be the smartest man on the planet. Your diet is 100% perfect and everything you know can save the world from disease and malnourishment, right?

no. my diet is only 99% perfect.
of course your statement is irrelevant to the point here. but glad you had fun with this.

Except it is health-promoting, you've just been brainwashed by people in the Natural Hygiene movement into believing superfoods don't exist or are bad for you. You can ignore all the scientific research as much as you'd like, it doesn't change reality. I'll ask again.. if someone eats 100% raw but uses a few health-promoting products that are not raw, lowering their intake to about 99.99% raw, they're a hypocrite by claiming they eat 100% raw?

"it's a curse. an addiction, if you will."

And like all addicts, they typically don't realize they have a problem One day you'll be able to beat this, I have faith.

"no. my diet is only 99% perfect."

Oh, yes, dates, bananas, and lettuce. How could I forget.

firstly, 99.99 is a number invented by you and has no quantified reference
to monarch as far as you know

secondly
does 99.99=100 ?

i can see that you're on the road to recovery from your plan to delete fruit.
good for you.

Lol let's try and make sense next time.

"firstly, 99.99 is a number invented by you and has no quantified reference

Nope, but who's going to walk around claiming they are on a "99.99%" raw food diet, it would be ridiculous. As I said earlier, the only people who care so much about something so pity are people who have this odd, brainwashed, cult-like notion in their heads that being 100% raw is some sort of accomplishment or that 100% raw foodists are automatically healthier than people eating cooked whole foods. It's like consuming something not raw even though it's incredibly good for you is to be frowned upon, makes no sense.

You make a good point. I am not sure if he is eating other non-raw stuff, though, because he seems to be very fanatical about what he eats. Like I have watched videos where he won't try an item because he's not hungry. I understand that it's a good habit to do that but in a video where you are evaluating a taste, it seems a bit much.

I was thinking it might actually be Angela that is not 100% possibly but she has maintained observing her raw anniversary and I can't imagine that she'd say something untruthful. I think they own cattle so that would make me wonder why they do and if they are drinking raw milk. I remember Arnold Ehret saying that he ate cottage cheese. I don't know if he ever drank milk, though.

>Nope, but who's going to walk around claiming they are on a "99.99%" raw food diet, it would be ridiculous.

ok, so if you're 98% raw you can say 100% then?

the 100% label is an unfortunate thing that started and has caused huge problems between people.

>As I said earlier, the only people who care so much about something so pity are people who have this odd, brainwashed, cult-like notion in their heads that being

I guess you mean petty?

>100% raw is some sort of accomplishment

it is and it's a quantum leap from my experience, but some people don't notice a huge difference I hear.

but people define it in so many ways it's silly.


>or that 100% raw foodists are automatically healthier than people eating cooked whole foods.

automatically? of course not. generally? probably.

>It's like consuming something not raw even though it's incredibly good for you is to be frowned upon, makes no sense.

to each her own.

"automatically? of course not. generally? probably."

Where are all the 100% raw food centenarians? There are a lot of ways to fail on a raw food diet that many don't understand, which leads them to either develop problems in the long-run or go back to cooked foods. There's a man who's about to turn 113 this summer who isn't raw and eats salmon twice a week.

"ok, so if you're 98% raw you can say 100% then?"

Why not? It's not a big deal, just completely blown out of proportion.

"to each her own"

I guess so. I think I'll go with the abundance of scientific evidence instead of "fresh" from rawfoodsupport.com's wacky opinion.

I have no idea what opinion you're talking about, and of course you shouldn't go with my opinion, you should go with your opinion. we just share and sometimes a little leaks out from one of us to another one of us when we're not looking.

Your opinion on superfoods, such as maca.

"check this out, not sure about bernardo"

What about it?

there's a question about his age

hurry get your sperm count up with that maca.

it's dropping fast.

Maca is just one superfood and it would be great for men with low testosterone or low fertility, plus it has more benefits than improved sexual function. Not everyone learns about the importance of "you are what you eat" until after they've developed health issues.

most likely, as soon as I become ill, I will get on the superfood bandwagon.
I will keep you posted.

I thought it was funny how bernardo said he ate fruits and vegetables and a bit of fish, and the news report videos said 5 important foods recommended by bernardo!!!!

1) garlic
2)honey
3)cinnamon
4)chocolate
5)olive oil

more false reporting
