Hi everyone! I have had a lot of GI issues the last year and a half and am considering going Raw Vegan...but I have some questions.
I follow the eat right for your type diet and since I am blood type O my diet recommends a carnivore diet, so mostly lean protein. I have followed this way of eating for a while and am very lean and muscular. But I started to get GI issues and found out I have acidic blood. Along with that came a lot of food allergies, constipation, fatigue, bloating, and gas. I think that the raw food diet would be good for me, but will it make me lose my muscle and leaness? Also how does it provide energy for exercise? I am extremely fit, I run marathons, weight lift, and do triathlons....will I have enough protein and energy with this way of living? I have some friends that are vegetarians and they are overweight, is that possible on this kind of diet?
Thanks for all your help!

Thanks everyone for your help. My last question is where can I get some great resources to help me go raw vegan? I read one forum on here on what some people eat and some people say they only eat fruit all day...that is way too much sugar for me and I can't see that being balanced and healthy. I want some guidance on how to get enough of everything without overdoing it.
Thanks!
