Do you ever go over to the Andreas Moritz website? He had a suggestion that piqued my curiosity. Although I think he promotes veganism, he is against an all raw diet. He suggests that when folks adopt this type of raw vegan diet, it activates the body's defense systems because one is ingesting the natural plant pesticides/insecticides and Antibiotics . This causes the immune system to get aggressive and eliminate other problems. But if one continues on this type of diet, it can eventually exhaust the immune system and raw vegans end up feeling worse than before they made the switch. I had never heard it put quite this way before. It was thought provoking. Thanks.
