I live 30 miles east of Bellingham, Washington, just a stone's throw from the Canadian border. I am trying raw for 30 days to see if it helps my diabetes. I also have borderline blood pressure and high cholesterol, and am obese.
So this is nearing the end of day 4. The second day I had a terrible headache and sick to my stomach. Yesterday and today I feel pretty good. I am having some cleansing with gastrointestinal problems and some cramps, but these are not too bad and I can handle it.
I am not totally raw yet. Everything is raw, but my green tea that I have with some unsweetened soy milk in it. I am eventually going to go off that also, but with everything else changing, I decided to use that for a coffee substitute (I am addicted to coffee). All my food has been raw, veggies, nuts, seeds, and fruit.
I can say that my terrible depression that I was experiencing has lifted after the third day, How fast is that for results? I feel happy, calm, hopeful, and vibrant already.
I can't wait to see how I will feel in 30 days.
