Guest guest Posted March 11, 2007 Report Share Posted March 11, 2007 Graham promotes 80/10/10 and Wolfe promotes 33/33/33. Just wondering how many people follow either one of these or have tried both and do better on one than the other. Also, I assume the 80/10/10 is by weight. Or is it calories?

Guest guest Posted March 12, 2007 Report Share Posted March 12, 2007 I'm doing the 80/10/10 this weekend and can't eat it all so I'm eating all I can and quit and it seem to last untill the next meal time. I'm full for the night. I have not read about Wolfe but have looked at his site.Might get his book later. Theresa \o/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 12, 2007 Report Share Posted March 12, 2007 80/10/10 is percentage of calories. This is easy to calculate with nutritional calculators like fitday, nutritiondata, nutridiary, cronometer. 33/33/33 is by dry weight. This is the weight after the water has been removed from the food. Good luck in figuring out how to do this. Bryan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 12, 2007 Report Share Posted March 12, 2007 The 80/10/10 is calorie percentages. 80% or more of your total calorie intake should come from carbs, 10% or less from fat, and 10% or less from protein.

Guest guest Posted March 12, 2007 Report Share Posted March 12, 2007 Hi Paul, I've tried both a typical raw diet that included plenty of nuts, seeds and avos as well as salt and spices and I've been following high fruit/low fat approach similiar to Dr Graham's for the last year and a half or so and I feel much, much better on Dr. Graham's approach. I have much more energy and enthusiasm, sleep better, have better moods and have much less cravings for cooked foods! :-) Life is great! I love fruit! :-) All the best, Audrey www.rawhealing.com > " Kim Kline " <kline.kim >rawfood >rawfood >[Raw Food] Re: Graham or Wolfe? >Mon, 12 Mar 2007 13:31:39 -0000 > >The 80/10/10 is calorie percentages. 80% or more of your total >calorie intake should come from carbs, 10% or less from fat, and 10% >or less from protein.

Guest guest Posted March 12, 2007 Report Share Posted March 12, 2007 Why can't there be just balance? Of course people feel awful on tons of nuts and fats. David Wolfe actually lives mainly on BEVERAGES, though. Big difference! And coconut oil is not nearly as heavy as, say, a handful of cashews. Avocados aren't either. I feel blah on a heavy diet, too. That's understandable. But Graham's diet is deficient in Omega Fats, too. We are all different within raw, and using balance, some feel better on a bit more nuts and some feel better on less, but your diet shouldn't be primarily fats, nor should it be primarily fat-free. Your brain is 60 - 70% fat and needs omega fats. I believe most will feel better on that diet for a short period, just like we all do fasting, but it is not sustainable long term. There are simply not enough omega fats at all to go around and people will become deficient (most start out deficient). To assume we can manufacturer DHA from green is actually scary. Expecting?

Guest guest Posted March 13, 2007 Report Share Posted March 13, 2007 I think there should be balance in all things. I truly believe that you should be able to eat the kinds of foods that make you feel good. As far as diet goes you need a balance and variety. rawfood , School Of Rawk <schoolofrawk wrote: > > Why can't there be just balance? Of course people feel awful on tons of nuts and fats.
