Guest guest Posted February 27, 2001 Report Share Posted February 27, 2001 Psychology is also an interest of mine. As you well know there are many contradicting ideas about health even within a particular health movement. Many factors influence how we decide what we think is true. So I ask all of you in deciding to consider some of my following points.<br><br>-Don't let a desire for something to be true let you overlook certain things. Your desire should be to find out how to be as healthy as possible not to find out that some health ideal ie " 100% raw vegan is optimum " .<br><br>-Other people have seen all the same infromation you have and have a different viewpoint. To beleive you are 100% true is foolish like saying " my deductive reasining skills are better than everyone else's " . <br><br>-Many people seem to make there conclusions frist then do there reseach later. ie decide a vegan diet is optimum then collect data to suggest that not the other way around.<br><br>-Many people cling to particular ideas and ignore information that contradicts that.<br><br>-Testimonies on websites etc about such things as cancer remissions are the best out of many. These people paint a picture that everyone can get results that good but remenber these are only the best ones and often not the norm.<br><br>-Just because you are 100% sure something is true does not mean it is. For example many people where 100% sure 100% raw was optimum for every body and are not now. Tom Billings has 30 years experience in the world of raw foods and feels that 100% raw is not optimum for everyone. It is foolish to think that your conclusions(ie 100% raw is optimum) based on internet reading and maybe a few raw books are more valid that all these other peoples.<br><br>-----------<br>These things sound obvious but many people fall pray to them as I see now I did in the past.<br><br>Blake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
