Hi everyone! This is my fourth day back at 100% raw, and i noticed i don't have as big of a difference in my energy as i did before when I was raw. A few months ago I first went raw and ate only fruits and veggies and felt amazing within the first couple of days. I fell off the raw wagon for a while but I'm back on now and this time I have been eating dehydrated foods and nuts along with the fruits and veggies, and I don't feel an increase of energy like I did before. Has anyone else experience this? Do you recommend only fruits and veggies for this reason? What makes you feel the best? Thank you!

Fourth Day Raw

You'll likely feel more energy on high water foods than dehydrated and nuts. Also, you may be detoxing and that could be slowing you down.
I eat very few nuts/oils/dehydrated foods, but I'm only about 75% raw.

peaceandlove143--i also have less energy when i eat more nuts and overt fats (coconut oil, avocado). i feel absolutely wonderful and so high on energy when i eat only fresh, whole fruits and veggies--nothing dehydrated, etc. however, i do love my raw fats haha...anyway, i know everyone is different, but i have definitely experienced much better energy and overall health on lower fat. the more greens i eat the better! the days when i used to eat 2 green smoothies a day were amazing!
