I think the problem with the misinformation about acid/alkaline is in fact the lack of people understanding things. POWERLIFTER, you are right in the fact that if you were too acid you would have big problems and be in the ER. you wouldn't need fruit or greens, you'd be in the hospital! ! ! But I think the point about eating the right foods is based how one looks at what is being said. I've

anytime you cut a fruit or veggie and you want to prevent oxidation, aka discoloration, like with potatoes, or apples for instance, simply toss them immediately in something containing a high level of anti-oxidants. Citrus fruits work well as they also make foods taste good. My mom would always toss fruit in orange juice for instance. Lemon juice works well too.

When humans eat chocolate, the brain releases a series of chemicals in response. Supposedly when we let a piece of chocolate melt in our mouth, the brain chemical response is MORE powerful with love feelings, than when we kiss someone with TONGUE!!!!!!! And to further this point, it is found that heroin addicts, opiate addicts, and ex-addicts have a permenent fixation with chocolate usually,

AWESOME article, i appreciate the constant pursuit of truth. I'm glad Dr. Cousens is continually researching things! So yes, it sounds possible still to eat raw and get b-12, just sounds like nobody has figured out the right combinations. It actually sounds like the general population has a problem with b-12 in general. To the point where I'm not sure if raw vegans are in anymore danger than

I owned a blendtec i bought and i loved it. I now own a vitamix 5200, and I love it also. I feel there are a couple main points you should think about. Are you the type of person that likes digital buttons and auto functions?? the blendtex is awesome in the fact that it is digital and each button has not only different speeds, but the blender actually has different sequences of speeds.

okay, I want to point out some basic obvious info, that basically proves with balance we have nothing to worry about relative to b-12. Gabriel Cousens MD, has been raw for nearly 30 years, and makes sure he eats sea vegetables, as they are high in b-12. He has his blood work done on the regular. and lo and behold, his b-12 counts are that of a healthy meat eater. somewhere around 500 nanog

I think part of the problem in this question is actually the definition itself. What IS emaciated. I've actually never seen anyone who is raw, actually look emaciated. They look thin very often yes. But emaciated is what the folks in auschvitz looked like, or in those feed the africans campaigns to steal money. I do feel that it is a danger to get too skinny. My girlfriend is currentl actua

ok marco. what you need to understand is that you need MORE fat, MORE protein. now protein is in everything vegetable, but its hard to eat enough for someone with your physique. You should focus on fruits and vegetables, BUT you REALLY need to focus on eating good nuts all the time. REAL raw almonds, not almonds from california USA. cashews are not raw. macadamias, pine nuts, brazil nuts ar

This reminds me of Dr. Cousens said something about how normal cooked food people say oh, vegetarianism is dangerous. Then The Vegetarians say to the vegans, hey that seems dangerous. Then the vegans look at the raw vegans and say hey, that seems dangerous. I am a huge guy, and I get nothing but support. But my girlfriend is skinny, and breastfeeding and has been doing raw but has had problems

I also want to mention that even on days when I was losing 2 pounds, I could still eat PILES of fruit!!! Like 10 bananas. 30 satsumas. etc etc....

YES YES YES, you can definitely cure candida with raw food. the only thing you have to focus on is the fact that candida LOVE sugar. and candida is coating the whole inside of your intestines, in a sort of fibrous web. So even if you don't eat sugar for months, you can still end up having a blow up, if you were to eat too much sweets, even if they are raw. The best way to irradicate candida,

well. you have to keep in mind that raw food is not ALL ABOUT no heat. Honestly it is relative to the person doing it, but, in reality the ultimate goal should be health. If you are 100% raw, then there are no worries about drinking tea. I would not make it a habit, as the caffeine that is present,even in green tea, is hard on the system. BUT like I said, if you are raw, no worries about tea.

Hey everybody.... September 10th, 2009 I made a decision. I went 100% raw vegan, quit eating meat, and all the other junk. I was previously a Low-Carb type of person I thought.

He lost like 230 pounds by drinking g
