A quick primer on how viruses are isolated and purified (3mins):

This is a quick primer on the current state of DNA sequencing:

Gary, don't worry, you are forgiven for not understanding how the majority of search engines work (especially anything form big tech, facebook, google, MS, AWS, etc).
Their goal isn't to give you the information your are searching for, their goal is to get you to click on things, ideally things they own, or things that have lots of ads they are selling/profiting from.

Note that Scotland has a 70% (fully) vaccination rate, it also has a 7 day average of 11 deaths per day.
Compare the US and Scotland
USA
150000 cases per day.
2000 deaths per day.
55% of population vaccinated.
~1 death per 75 COVID cases!
Scotland

Hi John,
"I'm not amused."
I'm honestly not trying to be funny there (if that was in response to me) or try your patients.
I understand it must be a little frustrating discussing an issue with somebody coming into it with completely different believes. I appreciate your time and effort - I've already learnt a lot from our discussion.
Rereading your posts.

Where? I don't see any link or URLs in your message.

Gary,
you did reference kaufman, but I didn't see a link (sorry if I missed it) to a particular article. I did go and read up who he is all the same, my impression was that he's a Psychiatrist turned naturopath. He presents some theories, but as far as I can tell hasn't provided any scientific evidence to back those theories up. He seems to target lay-people who lack science education, his

Gary-nothing-toxic-here, who are you calling a moron?
You're implying that because somebody believed in SARS-CoV-2, they got infected by it...
So as long as you don't believe that viruses exist, you believe you'll be safe from SARS-CoV-2 (which doesn't exist in your mind)?

Hi John,
thank you very much for taking the time to share that information with me, I think I'm getting an understanding of why you say viruses don't exist.
But I find it little shaky in places. Like: "want to guess how many different Variations there are of a Schnauzer Dog. And for those of you who guessed there’s 1 you would be correct..."
Well for a start, there is the St

Hi John,
I really agree with lots of what you are saying. Improvements in sanitation, diet, hygiene, toxicology, etc. have contributed massively (more than vaccines) to reducing human mortality rates. And in places where "primitive" disease is rampant (Ebola, Cholera, etc.) the living conditions are poor, and in places where "modern" disease is rampant (cancer, obesity, h

Thanks for the links to the re-definitions, that's an interesting indicator.

Gary,
I've said I would discuss these topics if you (and others) dial down the toxicity in your posts. You are now attacking my "status" as a raw vegan and including other slanders "You're not really detail-oriented", accusing me of "not looking at the other information" (I did read John's post and links).
But no answer from you on your science denials, or you

Hi John,
thanks for you long message.
It seems to come down to you believe in Terrain theory, and in your opinion is mutually exclusive to Germ Theory, hence Germ Theory must be wrong.
That part that I think I'm missing is why are Terrain Theory and Germ Theory so mutually exclusive in people's minds.
I've looked through a microscope and seen germs/microboes/etc, so I know that they r

"The 'Vaccine' Mandate. What's your position on Mandating that people get the Covid Injection?"
Hi Jennifer,
"Covid Injection": This is a very inaccurate description of any of the currently available vaccines. Even if somebody developed a live-attenuated vaccine using SARS-CoV-2 as the platform for the vaccine it would still be very inaccurate. I don't think you pic

Don't write off peer reviewing so quick. Sure, it's possible for collaboration between author and reviewers, but the reality is that "academics" are much more cutthroat and would do anything to scoop a publication (or kill/discredit somebody else's paper). I could paraphrase what you said into "all science is false" (since science is heavily dependent on peer reviewing, whic

When you are so far to the right, anybody to your left (even Reagan Republicans!) look like communists. How do you deal with calibrating when you are in that position?
Gary, there are plenty peer reviewed articles and data out there showing that vaccinated people died of COVID-19 a heck of lot less than none vaccinated people. Yet you seem to call this misinformation, why, based on what?

Hey,
I've not been around for a while and wanted to check in. I'm still eating 100% raw (since 2005) and loving it.
I'm 100% vaccinated (there is no microchip, no side effects, it didn't make me want to stop eating raw food or join an extremist political group).

Hi RawPracticalist!
Heh, not 100% sure, but fairly close to 100% sure it's 14 years, not that it really matters. I'll have to see if I've got some records/hints somewhere.
Anyway, nice to see the forum is still going.

Hi Raw Fooders,
sorry, I've been terrible about checking in (I said I'd do it once a year).
Anyway, I'm still raw 13 years later. I still love it, although it's so baked ito my daily life I don't notice it.
I mainly eat large salads (kale, arugula, lettuce, bellpepper, avocado), seeds (sunflower, hemp, pumpkin, pine, etc.) and nuts (cashew, walnuts, almonds, etc.), and fruits (apples, o

Hi all,
to answer some of the questions,
Weight: I lost a lots of weight in the first year or two, going from at least 280lb (I could have been over 300lbs) to 180lb. I stayed between 180 to 200 for many years, this was dependent on the amount of exercise I did (5KM run in the morning, 10 mile kayak in the evening keeps you trim). Since having kids I'm put on weight, I'm probably around

Nice to see you again! I think we've gone quite far to answering the question of long term (side) effects of being raw vegan. :-)
Glad to see this forum has stood the tests of time. Very few places I posted to 10 years ago are still around.

I am still 100% raw vegan (obviously minus the bugs I didn't see in my cauliflower).
I eat lots of salads, and raw things. Nuts and hemp seeds feature in my daily diet, I also line to include sprouted oats but I'm been a bit lax about order any oats recently.
