Degenerative

[EZ rider]

I know that getting old is inevitable but is it possible to get old without experiencing degenerative disease ?
Is it possible to avoid degenerative diseases by eating raw and living a natural, healthy, clean lifestyle ?
If degeneration can't be avoided can it be reduced ?
Thoughts and/or opinions anyone ?

I would think that with the power of the raw food diet to reverse the aging process, that some degenerative diseases (environmentally driven) would be avoided, while others (genetically driven) would be slowed down if not also avoided, depending on how long and how raw a person's lifestyle were.

as i'm reading the China Study now, i am getting more convinced that degeneration is possible with the proper diet. Also, that's something David Wolfe knows about... I believe in this idea on some kind of subconscious level now..like some original common sence :D

I think you will avoid degeneration....and eat healthy foods....if you have a very personal/motivate dream that absolutely REQUIRES it. Just my opinion.

I don't think there is such a thing as a degenerative condition or aging. I believe overtime we've created these diseases with our diets, lifestyle and losing sight of what's important in life. Absolutely I believe if you eat living foods you're keeping your machine running on optimal fuel and by doing so you consistently regenerate your cells. The human body can live for many more years than we can even conceive if we would just take care of it. We were probably supposed to be living into our 150's or 200's by now if we had simply remained on course with eating raw foods, like our ancestors did. :) There are already people reaching the 120's so we're not too far away from this. And maybe this is beside the point anyway. I'd rather be optimally healthy for how many years I'm walking on this earth personally.

Also it's about your thoughts...I've always seen myself as young, healthy and vibrant and I am.

Thanks for listening to my ramble. hehe.
