Lets talk RAW!!!
JWang...How long have you been raw vegan? I have always had great response from raw vegan diet (minus fruit)when done in short, maybe a month, runs. however, I have had a hard time sticking with it and also I fear that the long term effects of NO animal protein will be malnutrion, b-vitamin deficiency ect..
I did run across this guy whose real name is "Nature Love" you can google "Nature Love raw food" and see the pics. He looks and sounds super healthy, ripped, 40 some years old looks probably 10 years younger than he actually is. And he claims he eats kale, dandelion greens, and sprouts and practically NOTHING else. The story is quite amazing. I'm fascinated by it, but skeptical.
Here is the story (audio)

This is a story of a raw vegan bodybuilder that ONLY eats kale, dandelion greens, and sprouts!
The reason I am skeptical is so many people argue against this with
Science ect.. Also I have noticed some, I wouldn't say many, raw food people that look just plain toxic to me.
This other fellow, Phillip McClusky, 100% raw for probably more than 2 years now, written books, tours, his whole life is raw foods. But as you can see in many of his videos -- those dark circles around his eyes-- that is toxicity!!! why? where is it coming from???
