Info On Oprah about Raw!

[ShelShel]

Good morning everyone! :D Yesterday, on the Oprah show, a Dr. Oz said (with a smile) when discussing how long it takes our bodies to digest food....red meat can take up to 3 days, while raw fruits and veggies take a maximum of 12 hours. He asked the audience, with that in mind, which should you eat more?!?!?!
I loved this! :) Just had to share! Doesn't that just speak volumes about why we should eat Raw?!?!!!! Raw Rawks! (((HUGS)))

I'm so glad he said that - on Oprah no less. He is a really respected professional in the health field - he's even done some work with Dr. Furhman (he wrote Eat To Live, great mainstream book on the value of raw eating). So to have him on national TV speaking about raw - kudos to him!

That's pretty cool. I'd love to see Oprah sit and talk with Carlene and others who have lost weight with a raw diet - but I hear she thinks it's too extreme.

Oprah needs to get Alissa on her show. I think w/Alissa's charm, Oprah would be impressed!!!

Wow, I can see it now...more raw food places.....yeah!!

I've said that from day one. I guess we should let Alissa get finished with Tyra and then encourage her to contact Oprah! THE whole world will be eating raw and just think how much healthier we all will be!!!
I can see the headlines now. Oprah and Alissa eliminate world hunger - eating RAW!!!
WOW - what a concept!

I sent a message to the show via on-line about 5 months ago regarding an idea for a show. Raw food, benefits of massage, and acupuncture. You can go on to her web site and send a message. If we all sent one on Raw foods and mentioning Alissa Cohen, it could work. I'm sure eventually she will be on there.

That would be cool!. BTW talking about raw teachers on national tv shows. I was watching Celeb Diet Secrets on E! this last weekend and David Wolfe was on it! He had a few sound bites about raw food and appetite controlling supplements.

GREAT IDEA!! WOW!! I agree that if we all start spreading the word out there- especially to OPRAH things will really start happening!! I'm so excited. I think we should all definitely write in a little something about RAW and it's AMAZING benefits it's had on people. (but try to spread it out within a months time, if everyone writes in today-it’s going to look like we planned it! :rolleyes: ) Even if you are new to this lifestyle, and haven't seen any changes yet- write in what you are expecting to happen..and why..write in about other people's progress! We need to start changing the world and we all know that if there is one person that influences people - it's OPRAH. I'm sure that she's a little shy to the idea though due to that "don't eat meat" stuff she got into earlier. But keep pushing- peer pressure has it's good points too..hehe!! And even if she made comments like “we should start eating more RAW”…it’s better than telling people to use “lite” “baked” products!! Every little bit helps! Keep it up guys- it will pay off

Bumping for more folks to send a note to Oprah! We can do this!

BTW, I also heard Dr. Oz on a radio show talking about eating nuts raw and keeping them in the fridge so that the delicate oils aren't spoiled.

Don't forget to ;et Ophra taste raw food. Tasting is believing...

I sent one to her a couple of weeks ago. I saw the show. My mom saved it for me to watch. She said after watching the show she is NEVER eating steak again. AWESOME!

[tvillemom]
