Today I woke up very nervous. I dreamt all night about the "dangers of eating raw" that I read about on the internet the night before. When I awakened I was VERY hungry and confused. I thought to myself "What am I thinking? RAW FOOD! I must be going out of my mind! Then I realized that was probably the years and years of conditioning and brainwashing talking, and so I talked to my extremely wise husband about it. He said, "I'm just glad your eating so many fruits and veggies". Then I realized, Oh yeah, I am aren't I. Nothing wrong with that! Then he told me I looked thinner and of course I was right back to loviing my new way of eating. Then I immediately got on the forum and researched the answers to all the questions I had from last night so I wouldn't have to post and scare other people too. I got great answers and now I am feeling much better.
Phew, that was a close one!

    I know what you mean. Every time I mention raw or vegan, people look at me like I'm about to collapse from the lack of protein and calcium. But if I ate all fast food, they'd think nothing out of the ordinary.

    Listen to your body. I would imagine that 100% raw isn't for everyone but eating as much natural healthy food as possible IS for everyone. If only America would go 15% raw, think of how much healthier and happier we'd be???!!!!

    I enjoy your post! Keep 'em coming!
