Please take a moment to read this wonderful, very sensible article on the mindset of the raw and living food lifestyle. This is mostly for those concerned about losing too much weight - to an unhealthy point.

Newbies should really appreciate it.

Please read all the way to the end - that's where the best part is!

I can't understand why avoidance of pesticides would be a disorder :confused:

"Orthorexia nervosa"? That means "nervous right appetite" - what is nervous about a right appetite?

But that's the point of the article. The writer begins by discussing/explaining the "doctors" newly listed disorder. Then totally discredits it by suggesting that a disorder is one of unhealthy habits - eating raw and living food is healthy and "it reflects attention to the body's needs as well as self-love and self-cultivation."

I agree with you completely.

Those worried about revealing they're a raw foodist can say they're a junkaphobe instead. ;)
