Veganism Diet

Mounting evidence has shown that heat destroys many of the nutrients found in raw, living food, rendering it harder to digest, nutritionally diminished, and even toxic to the body. Raw food is catching on! From Hollywood stars with personal chefs, to a host of chic new Manhattan restaurants, the Raw Food movement is sweeping the country as people learn about the dramatic health benefits derived by eating a vegan diet in which food is never heated above 118 degrees Fahrenheit. But where does one begin? Knowing that Raw food is good for you is one thing; actually adopting the Raw vegan diet is something else. Whether you’re interested in diving deep into the Raw vegan lifestyle or just testing the water and easing into it, you’ll benefit by having an expert show you the way. Raw food chef Kristen Suzanne leads you step-by-step through the How? and Why? of introducing more Raw, plant-based foods into your diet and daily routine.

We all know (although some refuse to acknowledge it) it has been fully established that following a strict vegan diet, without exception, will eventually lead to inevitable significant health problems of many kinds, including physoclogical issues in addition to the obvious physical symptoms of consuming a diet that is deficient of essential minerals and nutrients. But aside from that which is obvious, the aquaintance I’m referring to is only 19 or 20 years old. He follows a strict vegan diet and it is apparent that he is prematurely losing his hair. I will entertain the possiblility that part of the cause for this may simply be from bad genes, meaning he may simply come from bad stock. But one has to entertain the possibility that this premature hair loss has been accelerated due to the well known deficiencies of the strict vegan diet. I just want to help the poor fellow out. Any suggestions that will help him out will be appreciated.
ALADIN You sure sound mean spirited. This is all about helping my friend. No need for you to be so nasty. And I AM A VEGETARIAN. Please learn to be nice, you seem so terribly unpleasant.
ALADIN Please do not go on in one sentence and tell me I’m a meat eater and say I’m preaching and in the next tell me you don’t care what I eat. And stating that he will probably live longer than me is a statement completely without merit, you do not know me or him, yet you speak as an authority about something you have no knowledge of. I have know idea what I am talking of? I tried the vegan diet for the better part of a year, a well balanced vegan diet I might add. Initially it was fantastic as my body began to detox, it was incredible. But after close to a year I felt sluggish, out of sorts, and was just not as sharp mentally as I had been. I added hormone free milk and caged chicken egg whites and I felt much better in short order. So I speak from experience. A strict vegan diet without exception is not healthy over the long term. You have no problem telling me I am wrong? Obviously you are not going to let the facts get in the way of your conclusions.
BEEBS First, you are not a vegan. Although you have claimed to live a vegan lifestyle, you consume dairy products. You do not even meet the definition of a vegetarian in as much as you have confessed on previous posts that you do in fact consume animal flesh on occassion, if I remember correctly (and I do) you eat fish.

And the vegan diet is woefully insufficient with regard to B-12. I tried the strict vegan thing for the better part of a year, and after a period of time found it to be lacking. I added a little milk and eggs, and presto, I was good as new. I know what I’m talking about, as I was a vegan and am a vegetarian. My claims are based on first hand experience, not hearsay.

Sorry to hear about the 953 out of 954 youths that are battling acne in you neck of the woods. Did you take a survey or something? Must be something in the water.

Vegans are experts on nutrition? Guess what, they are experts on everything. Just ask one, they are never wrong.
BEEBS Are you actually saying that a strict vegan diet, without exception, without taking nutiritional and vitamin supplements, is healthful?
MATT Thanks for dropping me a line. It’s always a pleasure to hear from you, in spite of your arrogance. It’s always nice to know what’s going on in the far side. How’s your quest for vegan world domination going? Making any progress? As always, you are my moral compass. I worship the higher, more enlightened, and less travelled ground that you walk upon. I thank you for your always insightful words of wisdom, oh master of the vegans. XOXO Cheers!
ALADIN I simply won’t waste any more time on you, it’s pointless. I read your long winded post, and all I heard was a mad rant and blah, blah, and then a little more blah. Your’e hilarious, but somehow not very funny. Cheers!

www.RadoTrenciansky.com Proposal of Raw Food Vegan Village in Limpinwood, Northern NSW. There is 1000 acres of land available for purchase. We are getting resources together to secure this property in order to establish sustainable community living with 50 houses and an educational and recreational facilities for public to be built. The members of this project will all gradually be setting up the minimum standards that they would see as being important to ensure that the project will create the necessary environment for its members to live in. While it may be that many of its members will be raw food vegans or fruitarians it is unlikely that this will become a minimum standard. As long as the group shares the same goals and ideals it does not matter whether you are at the start of this journey or have made considerable progress along the way. An example of a minimum standard could be that you would not be able to raise animals for slaughter on the property. So even if you think that you have not made alot of progress in your development do not be discouraged as long as you share the same vision and are inspired to work towards your goal then you would I am sure qualify to be one of the inhabitants of the poject. Being with people who share the same values and are working to the same ends will encourage you along the track, whereas being with the average community will only discourage you from following the path that you know is true.

In The Kind Diet, actress, activist, and committed conservationist Alicia Silverstone shares the insights that encouraged her to swear off meat and dairy forever, and outlines the spectacular benefits of adopting a plant-based diet, from effortless weight loss to clear skin, off-the-chart energy, and smooth digestion. She explains how meat, fish, milk, and cheese—the very foods we’ve been taught to regard as the cornerstone of good nutrition—are actually the culprits behind escalating rates of disease and the cause of dire, potentially permanent damage to our ecology. Yet going meat- and dairy-free doesn’t mean suffering deprivation; to the contrary, The Kind Diet introduces irresistibly delicious food that satisfies on every level—it even includes amazing desserts to keep the most stubborn sweet tooth happy. Alicia also addresses the nutritional concerns faced by many who are new to a plant-based diet, and shows how to cover every nutritional base, from prot (more…)

I just joined my wife with her Vegan lifestyle, and have lost 17 lbs in less than a month, I would like to keep this weight loss up and stay on the diet/fast possibly turning my eating habits around for good. Anyone have any good advice, recipes, snacks, etc. for a curious Vegan

Over the last few months I have lightened up about my diet and have started eating some vegan cooked foods. I’m actually doing pretty great, and certainly much better than I did on 80/10/10 but I don’t plan to eat this much cooked food indefinitely. I want to return to a very high raw vegan diet with lots of sprouts and some dehydrated foods to help me feel full throughout the day. I have to cut back on or eliminate fruit and other forms of sugar to get my candida (which flourished during my 80/10/10 experiment) back under control. Lately I have been working 12+ hour days so having to eat every few hours is a major inconvenience and the high calorie cooked vegan food has helped me get back to work. While on 80/10/10, I was so weak, tired, and drained all the time. I just couldn’t seem to consume enough food to keep me going. I also had problems with candida and blood sugar issues.
