• Seeds aren't too expensive, at least in a physical store. Sunflower seeds 2 something per pound for organic at Whole Foods, and if you soak / sprout them they become much bigger so it works out to maybe something like 1.5 or less per pound

• Wow, you are amazing. Making it happen with 5 kids an Walmart. Amen! I recommend learning about different kinds of fruits. These are the best for you, and the easiest to prepare! Try eating mono meals of one kind, or maybe a couple different kinds. …

• That was intended to be a friendly gesture, since the regulars on this board seem to know where each other's stand and I think its funny. And we pretty much agree anyway so don't worry about it Anyway, the question was pretty much answered long ago,…

• Another component to any diet is amount of exercise. In order to eat the quantity of fruits that some recommend, one must also carry out a lot of daily exercise. So it depends on your lifestyle. If you are more sedentary, you might have to try somet…

• Everything is relative. Of course once you are doing it, it makes sense.

• witchen, I hope you didn't just compare fruit to cheap chinese takeout, lol... Also, note that you have to adjust to a low fat diet, its not automatically better. I have found that fat has a sedative quality, and people (like me) who are used to bei…

• I don't know many people who advocate 100% fruitarianism. Even Doug Graham, who notoriously recommends eating a huge amount of fruit, also recommends eating a huge amount of greens. Perhaps in a perfect setting we could be fruitarian, but most human…

• Yes. I used to drink about a pot per day (addicted student). It was crazy. I'd drink a cup right before going to sleep, no problem. But, it actually wasn't that hard to give up, once I was resolved. However, after then going raw for a while, I tried…

• If you are high raw, what's the problem with oats? Oat groats are minimally processed though heated. And they're pretty much gluten free so unless you are doing 100% is it really a problem? Plus, you can still do 80/10/10 with some oats (cooked food…

• @ the59sound - so what? what more is "100% raw vegan" more than a label to describe one particular eating style? it doesn't necessarily equal "as healthy as humanly possible" because I doubt anyone (including you) is as healthy as humanly possible. …

• I don't eat all organic because of my budget, but I do all organic greens, bananas, apples, and oranges since those are the majority of what I eat. Also all seeds I buy are organic. Not nuts though, that is too expensive. And often celery I will buy…

• Sorry to be a Negative Nancy, but I doubt that about mushrooms. And B-12 is added (fortified) to nutritional yeast. Not all nutritional yeasts have B-12. I recently got a blood test after almost 2 years raw and found that I'm "dangerously low" in B-…

• This is perhaps the most hardcore dietary statement I have ever read. Just... wow. So, you can't eat anything through your mouth? Is this for life or temporary? I recommend reading Green For Life by Victoria Boutenko, and 80/10/10 by Doug Graham. Th…

• There's a lot of other factors in health. Even with food, there's other factors besides raw. For instance, if you eat right before bed a lot then your sleep won't be as rejuvenating and healing as it should be. If you're always stressed out then you…
