I know people have skewed off topic again, but responding to the responses, all I can say is that I have respect for bodybuilders who seem to love doing what they do, just like anyone here supposedly loves what they do with raw foods. It seems what you are saying is that it's practically impossible to get that huge on raw foods. I both agree and disagree in a way - I think it would be extremely

2. Re: Nuts
the cheese and milk would digest better for certain people, if the person was not lacking in the digestive enzyme; also the products would probably have to be raw to digest better then nuts, so they practically "digest themselves" haha

I'm just saying, bodybuilding is a sport and comparing a bodybuilder in competition to a regular person who just likes to build muscle is a huge difference - and the diet alone will not paint a picture of what either should look like. so saying they look gross is implying they both do something that someone is disgusted by (lifting heavy weights) and probably don't eat raw foods. I still don't

no, I mean, comparing pictures of people practically bulging out of their skin to a statue of a greek man, and you, a raw food man
and then simultaneously calling out diet for the whole problem of muscles looking bulky? say whaaat?

you have to understand that there are other factors other then diet out there; and if diet is in fact the leading prevention factor of anything, then there are thousands of different theories of what people should eat; so it really isn't as obvious as everyone seems to think, especially since a lot of people fail to look at all sides of any argument involving food

9. Re: Cooked
sugar is a big cause of cravings over all, i've read, so if you were eating mostly fruit but with some other things, it could be the sugar or the other food; it's all about what proportions you are eating and how things are combined, rather then attacking one specific thing really; i've read people say "oh stay far away from white rice because it's refined"; while others say too much fi

there are a lot of factors to food absorption; i think it's a very simple question to ask with the possibility of both a complex answer and multiple oneess (not to mention conflicting)
if you're worried about it I would just do some research myself...never take one persons word for it

The person who went out in the wild was not raw at all; they were living off of what they had for 44 days and hiking with equipment on their back practically all day. You're not going to find a lot of tribe people who live on only raw food...So even if you're point was that they aren't deficient yet look "natural" , they aren't even eating raw food.
Look up studies about depriving

i'm not saying raw vegans are obese, but not everyone that eats cooked food is obese
most people in the wild aren't obese either
it's mostly america and the countries with more access to processed foods that are obese -- but NOT entirely
it's almost impossible to get obese being a raw vegan unless all you did was eat nuts 24/7 ; it's simply less caloric-dense food, harder to over-eat

I am also wondering still how to get more protein from plants; there isn't really anything you can do on all raw food to get that much without eating a huge amount of food
you should see if you really do need that much protein; if you're experienced enough to know you do, then yeah, I can't really say much more about raw food because the philosophy behind it is usually the fact that people act

ok, not everyone that eats cooked food is obese, now
i think to get a better understanding of those questions/statements on hunger and cravings is to actually read about anthropology and development of human anatomy--you know how people survived and the way we evolved; it really is quite relatable and interesting to read about..a lot of puzzle pieces can be put together with it, or at least in

yes, but people in the wild and in tribes also are commonly deficient in an abundance of things...i've read stories of people going out in the woods and trying to survive on their own for 44 days, and yes, they came home ripped and looked great, but they were also showing extreme signs of calorie-deprivation (extreme hunger, inability to stay warm, loss of sexual desire (i remember the person say

hunger is a survival instinct; you get hungry when you are low in calories - energy; if you are getting the right kind of food in the right amounts at planned times, I think that is what should cause a person to be at the right weight with never the feeling of fatigue OR an overwhelming desire to stuff their face with any type of food or the feeling of a craving or offset in any way. hunger is j

hey richard, look up bonobo monkeys; they pretty much sex it up when they're bored, and when they get into arguments and want to "make up" ..for fun..pleasure. Yeah. And they're even more related to us then chimps, who are more fighters then lovers really. It's probably because they eat more fruit then chimps -- chimps will not mate unless there is fruit around.

when you ate the cooked food you could have been under the impression that you assumed the pain would get worse and have anxiety because of the stress that comes with the thought of it hurting you, when in fact, it could be helping
the mind is really powerful.. I would keep experimenting. When you experiment there is no failure, only results to get you closer to what you want (in this case,

the argument is simply stating that different nutrients can be hightened by the process of cooking; it's not true for only tomatoes, of course, it is just a general example. there are a certain amount of toxins in every food. nature would tell you what to do if you randomly migrated somewhere and had to adjust to the plants around you, you would think. how could a generation of people who adap

cooking can, yes, decrease vitamin levels in food. But think about it. If you're boiling a vegetable in water, all of that water-soluble vitamin is leaching right into that water. It's in the water. So if you were making a soup, you would be getting all of the vitamins...with it even easier to reach other vitamins in the vegetable because the cooking process also helps break down cell walls.
