Hi i'm new here

hi everyone, ive been lurking for ages soaking up the good advice and funky, weird and wonderful recipes.

ive been eating raw for around 6 months now, since 1st july 2009.

previously i was insulin dependant diabetic diagnosed may 2006 as L.A.D.A. / type 1.5.

my choice to go raw/alkaline has meant that i no longer need to take insulin or any other diabetic control drugs. its like i never had diabetes at all. my doctors are confused lol!!!

i feel healthy, happy and I love eating raw.

  • Aww! Thanks so much for sharing your story. So incredible! Way to go! Keep it up, and keep your doctors guessing.. who knows maybe your doctors will start recommending it to their other patients too?!

  • hi joanna,

    mostly i enjoy raw broccoli salads, i recently discovered the power of hemp seed too and i love its crunch.

    ive been playing with the dehydrator but i get terrible belly ache form eating dried stuff. i made great sweet potatoe crackers, they were very moreish ;)

    sadly others on the diabetic forums have not been very tolerant of my journey, it got rather unpleasant :(

  • rawfreak4fr, have a look at his pH levels, i followed an alkalising diet which i strongly believe was what did it for me.

    i'm in the process of writing a book ;)

  • rawfreak, i can understand your sons reluctance to change right now, perhaps he will make that change in the future ;-)

    my step daughter refuses to eat anything green unless its boiled to death and tastes like s**t! she lives for the typical western diet, it saddens me as she is so heavily overweight. she lives with her mum so theres not too much i can do to encourage her to try new stuff :-(
