    I went 100% raw Dec 14, 2010 - I had diabetes, arthritis and High Blood Pressure to name a few.. I weighed 230lbs.
    By 3 days by BP dropped from 198/97 to 107/61.. By 22 days my blood sugar readings went from 455 to 79 - I stopped all medication and have never taken any since.
    I now weigh 127 lbs.
