My dad, well he's a meat eater. We're still working on him. His blood type is Type O Negative though. Maybe this is a myth, but I heard that Type O blood types thrive on meat. It's like their body craves it or something. I'd appreciate it if someone could tell me how much of this is true. > > ~Chrysta > > > > Brains are better than beauty.

Guest guest Posted July 1, 2003 Report Share Posted July 1, 2003 Day, Welcome aboard. A good idea to read to get your diet balanced and make the transition. It is a big shift mentally and physically to go raw. For example, instead of dealing with a vast surplus of protein, your body will learn to extract protein from dark green leaves. Instead of taking carbohydrate from animal fats and wheat, it has to take enough from fruit and vegetable fats. A good start is David Wolfe's Sunfood Success System. I skipped through his philosophy but I am sure others love it. Frederic Parernaude's Raw Secrets is excellent too. There are masses of books to read. Also not a bad idea to start off with some kind of fast to clean the old diet out. Peter perfectdayrecords [cheetarra] 30 June 2003 18:54 rawfood [Raw Food] Hello all I stumbled across this info after reading an article on why Demi Moore 'looks so good at 40'- she is promoting the raw food diet. Anyway, I was curious about it, did some research, and found that the overall lifestyle appeals to me. That's how I ended up here. I would like to learn more about changing my lifestyle and was curious as to how you all went about making changes...I do have to say that I love red meat, and that is one habit which I would like to break. I know it's not the healthiest thing in the world...I am 22 yrs old, living in NJ, and would simply like to feel much healthier than I do now. (Perhaps it's the cloud of smog hanging over NJ that is weighing me down, but I have a feeling it could be my diet as well). Well, thanks for listening and I look forward to talking with you all! Feel free to email cheetarra Thanks! Day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 17, 2004 Report Share Posted June 17, 2004 angela, you can " warm " raw/living food up to 118 F without breaking down the enzymes. -birte amadera656 [amadera656] I have changed my settings to go to the sight and read as opposed to rcving too many emails. So every couple of days I come by and " visit " . I have a question. A friend gave me a raw recipe book called " The complete book of raw food " by Lori Baird, and Julie Rodwell. Some of the soups say " serve warm " . Does anyone know what this is all about? tia Angela Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First it was 110, then 112, then 115 and now 118!!!! Where will it end? Of course I'm a purist - no raw food recipes required. I simply eat as it comes no food prep at all. Lazy I am! But that leaves me to experience the joy of all that raw stuff that comes out of that dehydrator. I consider that my " junk " food!!! Psychologically this works for me and keeps me raw!

Guest guest Posted March 9, 2005 Report Share Posted March 9, 2005 Hi Mara - welcome to the group. I think a lot of the bad press about soya comes from research sponsored by milk producers. A far as I know there is no evidence that soya causes early puberty, and is unlikely to interfere with thyroid hormone production unless you already have a thyroid problem. I believe early puberty is more often caused by the pcbs(? do I have the right item here) getting into the water from plastic production. I would suggest eating some soya in place of the most difficult dairy items to replace. Is rice or nut milk available in India? If you are worried about using soya you could use these. I use lentils, beans, nuts and seeds and tofu for protein. These and plenty of vegetables and fruit give you all the protein, minerals and vitamins you need, apart from Vitamin B12. It is best to use some foods that are fortified with this or take a supplement because a lack of it causes high homocysteine levels in the body which cause heart problems. It does sound difficult, especially if you can't cook some of your own food. Good luck.

I've seen similar reports - although they appear to be " authentic " sources (i.e. scientific researchers, doctors, etc.) when you actually look further into them, you find that *all* of those reports are funded by the meat and dairy industries, who obviosuly have a vested interest in proving that alternatives to meat and dairy are bad for you. In actual fact, there is no evidence at all that soy has any of the effects they suggest, and is actually considerably less harmful than eating meat products (which, as I understand it, have quite a hefty connection to cancer since they release a significant number of free-radicals). So, don't worry about these utterly irresponsible reports, and just make sure you get a good balanced diet, and you'll be fine.

Guest guest Posted March 9, 2005 Report Share Posted March 9, 2005 along the same lines....these studies also focus on either a. huge amounts of soy,..if you eat anything everyday yer gonna run into some sort of problem eventually b. also tends to stick with chemically stripped soy products... thats not soy, thats plastic... cheers fraggle Peter Mar 9, 2005 11:11 AM Re: Hello all Hi MahaWelcome to the list...> A few> days back I read an article on the harm that soy products cause and> their consequences like early puberty, cancer, pregnancy> complications, diabetes etc. This from pretty authentic sources I can> say.I've seen similar reports - although they appear to be "authentic" sources(i.e. scientific researchers, doctors, etc.) when you actually look furtherinto them, you find that *all* of those reports are funded by the meat anddairy industries, who obviosuly have a vested interest in proving thatalternatives to meat and dairy are bad for you.In actual fact, there is no evidence at all that soy has any of the effectsthey suggest, and is actually considerably less harmful than eating meatproducts (which, as I understand it, have quite a hefty connection to cancersince they release a significant number of free-radicals).So, don't worry about these utterly irresponsible reports, and just makesure you get a good balanced diet, and you'll be fine.BBPeterTo send an email to - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 13, 2008 Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 I honestly haven't been keeping up with this group... so much has changed in my life recently. But I felt a need to say hello (HELLO ALL) and a few other words, too. I do not have any vegan friends, not in person. The friends I do have are ok, some pretty great about it all, but... idk.. it's like I am a special needs person they have to prepare for or something... or their ignorances are so obvious it is sickening and they just go on about how I am wrong... yadda yadda... So I was wondering if anyone knew a good way to meet some local vegans? I am also newly single and would like to date again, but I see no reason in starting up something with a non-vegan, someone I won't have any kind of future with.... Or maybe this groups is really just full of spam....? Kris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
