HI all :) I was introduced to "raw" about 2 weeks ago from a friend. I am 37 and have diabetes (for 17 years) and just had quadruple bypass surgery in June. I take 21 medications a day and the docs just keep adding them at each visit. I finally said enough is enough. I've been raw now for a week and have lost 14 pounds. I feel terrific. Better than I have in 15 years. I stopped taking my sleep meds and have reduce my insulin from 92 units a day down to only 7 units a day. I'm currently doing 90% raw and am working my way to 100%. I'm not perfect and can't say I will never slip up but I'm addicted. I love the way I feel. Amazing what nutrition can do for ones body that medicines can not. :)
