  • Hey, welcome!!! I would advise transitioning and eating/preparing the processed raw as you please, but be careful on the fat intake of those "raw" nuts, oils, avocadoes, coconuts, etc. I have seen raw eaters eat some greens (low calories) and fat an…

  • It's not the bananas that are a problem. It's the humans who don't know how to pick ripe, fresh fruit. :)
  • It's my understanding that most meat has feces and urine in it, so if you eat those things, you might be okay, Kurite.
  • Yeah, we're missing out on our feces. :p :)
  • I recommend anyone, even omnivores, getting B12 from a sublingual source, as it's shown to be best absorbed, and when people have deficiencies, it's usually an absorpability issue, NOT a consumption/supplementation issue. http://www.google.com/searc…
  • I think part of the reason why we don't produce it or enough of it is our antiseptic present-day conditions. Or so I was told.
  • I wonder where the B12 amounts were checked, though. When you go to the store, you have a container which says a number (let's assume it's accurate). When you get it from a friend, they may have been fed "great" or "healthy" grass or maybe not. Mayb…
  • It's a strange thing because it's hard to tell with eggs - every chicken was fed something different and had different conditions, stressors (or not)......
  • Lyn, I'm not knocking your choice to not be vegan! You have to do what's best for you. But I wonder about the safety of relying upon eggs for B12 when you don't know if the eggs even have it, and if you can absorb it if they do. I think it's a safe(…
  • By the way, Kurite, I'm vegan for ethical reasons but raw for environmental and health reasons. The killer energy is great. I had awesome energy as a cooked & raw food vegan but this is even better. :)
  • Hey, Lyn, do you have any way of measuring that there is B12 in the eggs? Have you seen what she feeds the chickens? Most chickens are SUPPLEMENTED (which you say you are against) B12 in their feed since it's not in the soil anymore. Also, it's my u…
  • There's no such thing as a health vegan, since veganism is a lifestyle, NOT A DIET, that expands to yoru clothing choices, personal-care items, and household cleaners even. so obviously I'm vegan for ethical reasons. Some people eat a plant-based di…
  • I don't think Kurite's a troll. It's cool he/she is on here to learn and talk and maybe teach us something.

  • I'm sure. I've read plenty of articles about the healthiness of processing fruits into a syrup and someone wants to sell it to me. Hmm.

  • haha, did you read Nina Planck's stupid "article" or something? I think you could benefit from more research on dietary intakes. Maybe use something like fitday and plug in an omnivore versus vegan day (similar/adequate calories). It's pretty easy t…

  • When you had sushi, was it vegan? I'd say if you want to transition more slowly, that's not so bad, but keep the animal foods (if any) out of your diet. I'd do raw avocado and cucumber hand rolls and no soy sauce. Get the salt and excess fat out of …
  • What do you doubt? That it's natural? Pure? If it has no cow milk added or refined sugar, just use it up til it's gone (assuming you watn to partake in chocolate).
  • My friends and people who care about me know 1) we go to places that have something for me to eat as well 2) I am vegan for ethical reasons, it's not a joke about being "fat" and not eating a cheeseburger, I care about life.
  • I think it's an ingredient in a couple things I use. I think argan is touted to have more positive effects? Or similar.
  • I love your tattoos, Bush!!! They're beautiful!
  • It's a title of a book and also a way of eating that has at least 80% calories from carbs, no more than 10% from protein and fat. Great way to eat for athletic, active people. :)
  • I find eating plenty of fruit and greens and being active I stay warm. But sweet potatoes and other true vegetables steamed wouldn't be so bad. :)
  • I agree with Kellyanne!
  • I think the calcium in vegetables (assuming you get a good amount of vitamin c) is more absorbable for humans than the secretion of a cow for its young.
  • I think as long as you eat the thing you are addicted to, your addiction will not be overcome. Most of us understand the want to eat something, a specific item or food group, very badly. We're not here to judge! Your grains SEEMINGLY keep you satisf…
  • 1/2 avocado per day doesn't interfere with my digestion.
    in Fat Comment by superfood2
  • As far as I know, the word "everything" isn't up to interpretation. It means.....every thing.
  • I eat a lot more fruit than bananas. I didn't even read 801010 until recently. I was already a high-fruit, low-fat person prior. I guess great minds think alike.
  • I think NOT CONSUMING something or choosing not to consume something is different than "worry" over something, also. At least to me.
  • Your definition of "extremism" or concern for what others think may be different, though. That's the problem with words. Everyone has a different understanding of what they mean, even with dictionary definitions to help us, as we all have different …
