• Superfood, Please explain how vitamin k2 is a marketing ploy? Why do you think A&E are better from plant sources? Have you seen the evidence that not everyone can properly convert vitamin A? Why are greens and fruits the best sources of fatty ac…

• "What nutrients are you claiming that butter has that are superior to plant based foods, please?" Fat soluble vitamins specifically K2, A, D and E. Conjugated linoliec acid. Cholesterol. Plus other good stuff

• "Butter sounds like a terrible, terrible, terrible idea. http://www.notmilk.com. read any of the articles, seems like you'd be better off eating steak." I don't see any info on raw pasture butter? Butter has been used as a superfood for thousands an…

• Raw butter from pasture fed cows, highest quality animal product available imo and you don't have to sacrifice all your ideals.

• @the 2 posters who replied to my comment, If it works for you great! That's what were all looking for a diet strategy that works for our lifes. My point is that the book uses a lot of scare tactics that are made up. Fat blocks cells from uptaking su…

• Eat more fat, preferably coconut oil and raw nuts. Combine as much fat as you want with fruit. Stop worrying about some ideal diet that is based on fallacies. Live your life :) Just an fyi from someone who has read Dr. D's book and actually done the…

  in Gaining muscle mass on 100% raw Comment by keewi
• No food regimen can make you gain muscle, if it could body builders would in the kitchen not in the gym. With that said all you need to gain muscle is an adequate training program and a diet plan that provides enough calories. So you have 2 choices …

• A decrease in sleep usually means your body is in adrenaline mode, usually an indication of too little calories or too much stimulants. Ideally you should get 10-12 hours of sleep a night, this is how nature has set it up. In our natural habitat(the…

• Glycemic load is the only thing that matters. Every fruit except for dried fruits is low

  in Glycemic Index.... Should I worry? Comment by keewi
• 69 grams for the usa rda so your first number was about right, for some reason i read the numbers completely wrong and thought you were recommending 2.2 grams per lb of body weight :p . I like the WHOs recommendation better which would only put you …

  in Example of Meeting your Calcium and Protein Needs Comment by keewi
• Don't know where you got your rda for protien but its actually only 0.6 grams per lb of bodyweight, the WHO recommends even less at something like 0.44 grams/lb. This is extremley easy to meet on a raw food diet. As the other poster said the calcium…

• Lyn Goes green: Hmmm...interesting. I think that a lot of what we mistake for carbs is actually protien (spinach, broccoli, kale) at least a high percentage--and there's no doubt that those foods are good. Plus we need our essensial fatty acids....I…

• Sorry to kill everyones banana high, but did you know bananas have an enzyme inhibitor in them. When I found out I was like WTF I guess those damn hybrid bananas arn't as good as other fruit after all. Check it out, a quick search of google will sho…

• Eat more fruit, i eat about 2k+ calories of fruit a day. My pee is always clear, i don't drink any water(or crave any) and i pee a good 10-15 times a day(really annoying at night waking up 5+ times to go pee lol). Make sure your getting quality frui…

  in Question about vita mixer 3600?? Comment by keewi
• yep raw is awesome

  in Living Simply Comment by keewi
• just add as many raw foods as possible, dont buy steamed/cooked raw nuts, a lot of people do this in desperation and these are probably worse for you then some cooked foods. "raw" nuts from the store are rarely raw, 99% of the time they are steamed.…

• Get rid of them completely, i love cashews but have recently completely given them up because its nearly impossible to get non rancid, raw cashews. Only way i would eat them is if you have a cashew tree in your backyard, if not stop buyin um and res…

  in Craving Nuts Comment by keewi
• Dont buy it unless you have the extra money, if you're 811 and it sounds like you are you wont use it too often. I barely ever use my vita mix but havent made a lot of soups. Im gonna start making a lot of soups, that's the only reason to get one if…

  in If you had access to a Vitamix for 3 days... Comment by keewi
• Its literally impossible to get all the calories you need from vegetables alone, unless ofcourse you do nothing but eat all day (and i mean literally every second of the day). Get past your fear and learn to love fruits, its the only option.

• Wichten you can eat any fruit on 811, a typical day for me is 10-15 bananas, 3-4 pounds watermelon, some dates or figs and a large salad at night. It can be any fruit you want tho and there are so many varieties its literally impossible to find one …

  in Help me get enough calories! Comment by keewi
• Its not that hard to eat alot of fruit... It might be hard at first but after awhile its nothing. Your cooked diet has made it hard cus 1 cheeseburger=1000 cals but after awhile it will be no problem at all

  in Help me get enough calories! Comment by keewi
• The answer is 80/10/10 diet and lots of fruit, like 6-10 pounds depending on what your eating

  in Help me get enough calories! Comment by keewi
• Everything tastes better after a while on raw. If you eat a raw avocado and don't like it, eat it three more times nd you'll love it. Eat three servings of a pizza and you'll be like n more pizza for a while. That's the difference.
