I know it makes sense, because body needs to go from degenerative back to chronic and back to accute and then back to health. In my 5 months raw I had fever 3 times and stomach flu once, and cold 3 times! Ususally I used to get one cold a year, and probably one fever a year.
I am not complaining since it never last more than one day, and after I feel great, but I am just wondering, did that happened to you?

When I went high raw...my throat hurt constantly. Like a nagging soreness. Nothing swollen...just a bit red. Tender, I guess. But after a few weeks it went away. I've been great since.
My husband had to go to the doctor and found out that he had tonsilitis this last week. So, the doctor checked my throat, just to see if I was getting it too. He said, "Have you had your tonsils removed?" I smiled and said, "no." He said, "Well, you have some of the smallest tonsils I have ever seen." I was in perfect health! LOL
If you are feeling badly...your body must be detoxing in a major way. If I were you, I would stick with it. You said they always end after a day. Your body must be healing! Isn't that exciting!?!?! :p

I have been 100% raw for almost 3 months and I really notice my PMS time is over 3 weeks and extrememly PAINFUL--worse than it has ever been.

I am hoping in time it will balance out--my hormones that is.

All the general allergy symptoms went away and I'm "ok" except for this weekend. I had a major detox/healing crisis. Horrible throat friday, cold saturday, then flu sunday, cold again monday-tuesday, coughing wednesday-thursday, and the occassional cough today. Yay.

I know that a healing crisis can be really rough, but from my experience, once you go through it, you feel pretty fantastic.


Here's to releasing all of our healing crisis with ease.

Greeninlosangeles, you are now going toward the optimal health.. but before you reach there, you will be experiencing all your illnesses in the past..
I have heard.. you need 1 year raw to detox 10 years of SAD food toxin in the body. It is a natural healing process and you have to pass these phases in order to reach optimal health.

Try to drink more water, rest and sleep more...eat things easy to digest..
Do not go back to cooked food to break the detoxification.

with planty of blessing and wish you reach you goal in time..

Greeninlosangeles,

Keep hanging in there. Your attitude is in the right place and that's what will get you through the ruff parts. I have been thru the flu for 3 months back to back, an uncurable disease that has now total abatted, and now I am overcoming an infection in the scalp. So I say what's next bring it on I am ready because l want optimum health. I know that I have got to go through it to get to it...I can't stop with what I got!!

Enjoy and Embrace your journey!! :D
