3 days raw...not feeling good. :(

[GreenEggsAndYam]

I'm a 22 year old female trying out the raw lifestyle mainly for energy benefits (and to STAY "young", lol). I'm have an average build, 5'11 and 140lbs, so losing a few pounds would be a nice side effect, but it's not a matter of life or death.

Speaking of side effects, I'm not "feelin good" because of issues of fruit-induced heartburn and feeling wimpier than usual. Oversensitive and emotional. Ick.

Hopefully this is just a transition and it'll pass, but it's driving me nuts.

I just want to stick with this because it seems like it has such great results, and it's just backed by common sense.

try eating smaller meals and different foods and see if that helps with the heartburn.

Did you combine nuts with the fruit?

Sometimes I eat those raw food bars (not Larabars, another brand) - which combine nuts and fruits. Ironically, those prove less problematic than fresh fruit.
