I've been 100% mono eating raw for a rather long time (about year and a half) and for the last 3 days i've been eating cooked food as well as avoiding all food combining rules.
I don't feel any bad effects though, to my surprise it seems that I don't have any problems at all.
However I have gained a lot of weight, which isn't bad too since i'm still rather lean.
I have tried slightly frie

My face shape actually changed to a more attractive it is amazing, got rid of acne, dandruff, eyes became clear blue, lots of energy, mental clarity, more endurance. feel good overall!
And there were times when I went through detox, I looked really really bad and unhealthy. But it is all good now

Quote Interesting thoughts Walkern. Did you find that to be the case in your journey? If so, how did you make yourself "ready" to make progress?
Well in my case I need the health raw food gives me for my art but I have also had a problem with too much energy and too fast progress, however I don't slow myself down with coocked food anyway.
What works for me is staying true to myself

Health is just a tool for some of your purpose and as long as you are not ready to reach that purpose you are going to be slowing yourself down. Perhaps all you need is to decide what you really want to do.
Maybe you aren't emotionally ready to make progress, afraid of your own potential and want to go at a slower pace?

I would not worry about high sugar fruits, or any any fruits.
Eat fruits out of love and not out of fear. Don't give up fruits you enjoy. Fear and worry causes problems and not our natural foods.
I have got rid from terrible acne and I eat mostly fruits(It took me more than a year though), the more sugar the better imho! lol! We need natural sugars and we like it for a reason.

You may also consider to eat any natural food you simply enjoy the most and try to live in the here an now and not to think much about food. As long as you are happy and relaxed the digestion would work much better.
You may try to simply give yourself more love and enjoy life and see how it works.

I also think that "Miss Magic" sounds very very cheesy and it seems all this superfood hype is generated pretty much to make money. I mean you can't make much out of telling people to eat simple apples. There has to be some special secret ingridient or something lol.
The thing about superfoods is that first of all you need someone to tell you which foods are super and which are not i

Pretty much agree with everyone else here.
First of all how could you tell if the food is "transforming you into a superbeing" or simply stimulates your body if you have just switched from a sad diet? It takes months and ever years to learn to listen to your body and not to mention that you have to learn to follow its signals too.
Another point is that it is very likely that aft

QuoteI see where the article is coming from, but can't see how a herb that can be eaten in abundance as a mono meal (I could eat a truckload of cilantro!) can be classified as harmful?
You could eat a truckload of anything(herbs, as well as pizzas, fast food, sweets etc.) as long as you add really essential foods to your diet but

don't worry and eat whatever you want as much as you want. 3 months is a very short time anyway. you will survive! lol!
I had a time when i couldn't eat oranges and now I can eat them for weeks and feel great. Your body transforms/rebuilds itself everyday so what doesn't work now may work later.
And I wouldn't worry about calories too, nobody has really figured it out anyway. I can easily

I think when he says some people have to eat meat it is all only about our habits. If you don't feed meat to a child since his birth what would happen?
He says he tried to eat grains and felt bad. But since humans are not grain eaters it is not very surprising.

QuoteAbout how much do you eat at a meal and what type of food do you eat at that meal ?
Different mono meals of fruits or vegetables and sometimes juice, as much as I want, from 1 to 2 kg depending on water content I suppose. I eat until I get satisfaction.

Some people may just not care that much about food after a while. They just simply eat raw and move on because they don't think much about food any more.

We are recharged with energy pretty much only when we sleep. We need food to replace old tissues and etc. and I don't belive in calorie theory, it doesn't make any sense from my own experience.
What makes sense is that we eat mostly for psychological reasons and because we are afraid that we may get too weak. And to slow down the detox. Food takes a lot of energy to digest but while it is be

I personally don't care much about washing produce, I don't wash apples and cucumbers because I peel them. I don't wash cabbage because I don't eat outer leaves. I don't wash bananas, oranges , kiwis, mango, pineapples, avocado. I wash pretty much only tomates, grapes...

According to raw food explained com we cannot digest starch completely and so I wonder what happens to starch after juicing? Does pumpkin or carrot and etc. juice contain any starch? What about banana juice (cream)?

Maybe let your body decide when it has to have bowel movements naturally and not worry at all?
From my personal expirience the best thing to do to improve digestion is to actually not eat at all.

I had gas even when i was on a my 10th day of dry fast so it might be not as directly related to food. it didn't smell bad though.
Btw i do enjoy mono eating lots of raw red cabbage and have no gas from it now.

Keep in mind that your body never gives up to become healthier so eating a single pizza doesn't really change much in the long run imho. You may slip up but the body doesn't really care if you see my point.
I personally agree with David also.

My skin is almost completely clear at the moment, I do have some redness left from old acne though but it's ok.
I do eat too! LOL! I may even overeat a bit sometimes and also I may even combine food poorly and it still doesn't seem to stop my body to only improve and get healthier with each day. What a miracle! However I do eat very simple mo

I have about 2-4 bowel movements per day generally depending on how much I eat.
I ate only 2 very small oranges yesterday and had a very small bowel movement later.
The next meal was today roughly after about 24 hours. It was about 2kg mono meal of kiwis. And I had a bowel movement about 4-5 hours later and to my surprise it was green and had some kiwi seeds. I don't drink or snack between me

Quote-A cleansing diet of mono fresh fruits (1 hour apart) & fruit juices, and pure water.....while eschewing nuts and high amounts of raw fats (avocado, coconut)...should help facilitate the long-term cleaning out and rejuvination of your internal bacteria. Avoid chemicals and cleansers and other irritants. This might help - and is just a suggestion.

I don't think it may be an allergy because I basically eat only apples, cucumbers, tomatoes and bananas and that's all, nothing more. plus I don't combine them. I ussualy eat only apples for a few days, then I would eat only cucmbers for a few days and etc.

Hello. English isn't my native language.
Ok so i have acne since 17. I started eating raw since 20 and now I'm 21 and I still can't get rid of acne. My skin looks pretty bad even though it is probably a mild type of acne. Also sometimes I get almost ok skin and then I will break out again randomly.
