My wife and I started the raw diet with a short juice fast, first, after a few months of slowly converting to eating anything other than fake foods like corndogs, taquitos, etc. (The things most widely available, and affordable to the american public as most of you know). The I only realized too late movies we saw on netflix were a trap into harming yourself. The dieting suggestions they tell you about are unnatural to human beings and we found this out the hard way as we got a little less brainwashed.
First, our juice fast only lasted 11 days. We lost a lot of weight, but it was extremely painful. Soon after I was shitting blood and my wife's HAIR FELL OUT. Do you realize how horrible that is for a woman at 24 years of age? It's devastating. Far worse than what I experienced. It also affected our moods for the worse, and the whole experience was just awful.
Afterwords though we tried the raw diet. At first it was alright, but I'd feel tired all the time, and we both weren't healing very quickly after the fast. Only recently have I found out the safest way to eat is probably closer to what's in the book "Nourishing Traditions" and the salad and fruit (grown by yourself with the highest quality, non-GMO seed available). We've been somewhat doing it now, and it's made a big difference. We're both getting back to normal, but not obese like before. Still haven't found a water solution though for the fluoride. But the yoga and meditating is really helping with our depression.
What do you guys do?
