Hi all!
I'm a 40 year old woman from Southern California. For the first 38 years of my life I ate a very SAD diet from the day I was born. About 3 years ago it all caught with me and I've became very sick (headaches, sore throats, severe fatigue, body aches, etc.), although medical doctors could never find anything wrong with me. For the last two years I've been researching and reading about alternative ways of healing, specifically about healthy eating and just recently about eating raw foods. Actually it's been a year since I first learned about raw and I've been trying to eat as much raw as I can, but that's only about 50-90% of my daily diet. Well, finally just about two weeks ago I became very ill with either a very bad cold, flu or sinus infection or some combination of those things. I decided that NOW is the time to get very serious about the raw food diet because I DO NOT want to take drugs to cure myself of my current condition. I know that if I go to a doctor, that's what they'll do for me--give me drugs. So I started on the Master Cleanse (Lemonade Diet) as a jump start to my raw eating. Once I've completed the recommended 10 days on the Master Cleanse, then I'm determined to go 100% raw. I plan to get rid of this sinus infection without the use of drugs and I play to stay healthy forever...I'm pretty excited about joining this forum because I've seen a few other raw forums, and I think this one is better for newbies, like myself, and from what I've read, everyone seems to be pretty positive and very supportive of each other. I need that right now. I'll be reading this forum looking for answers and posting questions of my own and helping others with whatever I can. Whew, that was quite a lengthy intro. I feel better already being here. Hi everyone!!! :p
