Hi everybody. I found this site last week at the beginning of a water fast. From what I have seen so far, rawfoodtalk.com is definitely going to be a big help in showing me some more good ways to cope with many food sensitivities, and some digestive disorders.

I am a 51 year old married male living in a suburb of Chicago, and always thought I was in relatively good health until I reached about 45 years of age. My decline in health was very rapid, thanks to the help of several medical doctors and the pharmaceutical industy. On the other hand, I have seen some great doctors, physical therapists, nutritionists, and met many people who have helped me learn new ways to approach recovery from the right direction. I also have to give much credit to the wonderful support of my loving wife, and hate to think of the condition I would be in if it weren't for her dedication and help.

I am looking forward to continual improvement and would like to thank you all in advance for the great information shared here.

Thanks much, and may God Bless you all!

Ron

Hey Ron! Welcome! Do you have Alissa's book and DVDs? I strongly suggest purchasing them as they are wonderful/powerful tools to help you on this healing journey!

Thanks for the welcome and encouragement, Dimond, ruffsongraw, Frugal Raw, and spicyfull.

It just keeps getting better. I have lots to say but am trying to edit it down. I realize I am long winded due to this new energy level that came with the conversion to a raw diet, and so, am trying to contain myself. If appropriate, I will use this thread to post some more about the recent changes and some more of what had brought me here.
