Hi Everyone,

My first post to this forum, tho I've been reading for a while. Encouraged by the season change I thought I would try shifting to a predominantly raw food diet for lent. Others have talked of the energy boost this gives them. I have a pretty healthy diety usually, which has lapsed into heavy carb for about 3 months of winter. (Don't drink, don't take caffeine, little salt, small amount of animal protein.... I spent about ten days shifting my food intake to significant amounts of salad, cutting out animal protein and reducing dairy to occasional mozzarella and taking a lot of green juice (2 tsp in water twice daily of organic spirulina powder and mixed barley/wheatgrass powder).

My two experiments were home produced oat milk (fermented overnight with organic miso and strained) and a raw humous using rehydrated flageolet beans and some organic peanut butter with onion, garlic and tomato. Was great with toasted parsnip.

About 20 minutes after a pretty light meal including these two things, I started to feel sick, and over the next 24 hours my system completely purged itself of everything in my gut. I have done Liver Cleanses and enemas and have NEVER seen anything on this scale, and never felt so weak after.

So I'm now worried about continuing down the raw food track. My body gets queasy at the thought/smell of any of the raw ingredients I ate that day - even carrot and broccoli, and now reacts to everything of a humous type consistency. I've never experienced such a strong set of reactions, and wondered if anyone else has? I thought about the possibility of toxin reaction, but I'd done a lot of advance work and exercise and didn't really have reason to expect it. Not sure what to think now...? Would appreciate any advice...? (I'm 39, female, no illnesses, no medication, about 8lb overweight, physically fit - ie walk comfortably 5 miles a day)

Thanks Ciaren
