What happened to one person is not conclusive evidence of how a diet will effect and entire population, it is just speculation. If we have 50 such cases to study, then we could start to do more than speculate.
While T.C. Fry managed to live to a reasonable age, his condition does seem to indicate that he either had a pre-existing condition(s) or didn't take care of some aspect of this life.

Thanks for the kind words. Don't worry the world deserving me, I'm just passing through, on my way to Hell. I here it's full people who believed in science rather than gods, you can do anything you want and there is tango all the time. ;-)

I wish more than 4 people on this board knew what science was. I won't say which four people have demonstrated an understanding of what Science is, that way you can all think you are one of the 4 and feel good. ;-)

Erm, "Evidence"!? Are you sure you didn't mean "Speculation"? I've no problem ignoring speculation. There certainly doesn't seem to be any evidence in your quote. I'll take a look at Chet Day's article sometime and see what "evidence" he has (although I don't like PDFs, maybe it's in text format somewhere).

Good observation, Arugula. I have to admit, raw foods is the first area I've tried to research and found most of the literature to be well below the level I can accept for research/informational purposes. Too many self proclaimed gurus, doctors, food scientest, nutritionists how are approaching raw foods like it is a religon or something (maybe it's just too much hippy-dippy-@#$%&).

216. Re: Raw Bread
Thanks for posting your research. I wonder about combining the bitter and bland grains to try and balance out the breads flavor, or creating a none too bland base for some flavored bread (garlic rosemary is yummy). Or maybe combining some of the above raw oats (oh sooo yummy).
Some where on this site is a thread I was posting my rising flax seed bread research, although I can't seem to find

217. Re: mandoline slicer
I got mine from somewhere like Bedroom Bathroom and Beyond, I can't remember the price but $50+ rings a bell. I'm very happy with it. I keep meaning to play around with it more, but I mainly just use to slice zuccini for pasta. I use it for other things as well, like making veggie chips for dehydration, but I think I could use it for more stuff I experiment with it bit.
Cheers,
Ian.

The cream keeps the bananas covered and prevents them for oxidizing. The cream should cover the top of the pie, so you'll want to pie filling tightly packs so the cream can't drain to the bottom threw little cracks.

Seaweed is definately vegan in my (and most other) books. There is big difference between seaweed and honey. For honey, you need bees, for seaweed you don't need bees or any other creatures.
Just about everything you eat will contain little bugs/creatures you don't notice will eating the food. Would/do you consider Brocolli to be non-vegan as well?

Hmmm, not sure about "google rocks", this company has major evil potential.
Saying that I have a few friends working there who seem pretty happy. One keeps inviting me to the google campus for lunch, I'll let you know what the food was like if I go.

Hi Reet,
You are going to feel really good eating 80% raw food, you might feel better eating 100% raw, but whether you want to probably depends on your reasons for eating raw. I think most of us will be in a permanent state of detox anyway, how healthy/unhealthy the detox is depends on the rate (low/med/high), and the rate of this depends on rate of absorbtion of toxins (from food, air, skin

My standard breakfast smoothy:
- the juice of 2 apples and 2 oranges.
- 2 bananas
- 1 small chunk of ginger (one inch or half inch)
- 1 teaspoon of flax seeds..
I also tend to add any fruits left over from the previous day, like berries (strawberries go well in the above), pine-apple, kiwi, whatever I've got lying around.
Cheers,
Ian.

You either use something else to supress the pathogenic bacteria, or you ferment quick enough that the pathogenic bacteria doesn't form (normally done using some sort of starter culture).
I'm not sure about your Kim Chee comments, I don't recall Portugal and Spain being involved in Kim Chee invention/production (at least not traditionally anyway).

Yes, you never mensioned GMOs, but given that this thread pops up once every week or two I figured I'd cover the standard disinformation before somebody else brings it up.
Hybridization is none issue, but people love having issues, veggies are kind of hard to pick on, but sweet fruits are are easy. Everybody knows if something is sweet, it's bad for you... well of course NOT, but some people

I find it amusing, that when the question "What do you do for a living?" is ask, people are really asking you "What do you do for money?"
What do I do for a living? I'd prefer to answer it with what I do so I know I am living.

232. Re: coconut pulp
Coconut maccaroons (maccarawooons?):
Mix some nut butter, agrave (or date), vanilla (and tiny pinch of salt if you desire) with the coconut pulp. Add the nut butter a little at a time mixing it in until you get a nice dough. Make it into 1" to 1.5" diameter balls and dehydrate
for a few hours at 105F until they are dry to the touch, but still chewy inside.
Yummy.

234. Re: MINUS 25 POUNDS
I was shedding about a pound per day for the first few weeks of being raw, I wasn't calory counting or trying to loose weight. Things slowed down after that as I started to approach my ideal/nature weight. I probably lost around 70lbs over the first six months. I continued to loose weight after that, but at a much slower pace (like 20lbs over the next six months). Now my weight is fairly stab

You can be raw without being vegan. Not my choice of life style, but I figure the more people eating raw the better (and easier, cheaper for us to continue our life style).

What's a BFF?
Just about all my friends are excited to eat raw food when they hang out with me. I make it clear that they can eat whatever they want, that they don't have to eat raw vegan, if they want to eat meat, I won't be offended. In fact I'm offended if somebody feels uncomfortable eating what they want around me.
But, I don't really know anybody in my social circles that eats raw a

You've never had dates? Or you don't know if the dates you've had were raw?
(Or maybe you were eating dates from a can? - which probably wouldn't be raw.)

I guess this depends on your definination of raw... I consider sundried and fermented/cured olives to be raw, providing that they have not been heated at any stage. Anything coming in a can or jar will most likely have been heated during the canning process - those I definately can not consider to be raw.

Hi Taylor,
I'm still figuring out the recipe. I thinking of using either kumquats, or dehydrated slices of oranges mixed with some dates maybe. I'll post a recipe when I figure it out (or I post my research if my recipe fails).
