Guest guest Posted October 20, 2003 Report Share Posted October 20, 2003 From what I understand you get more than enough omega 3's from fruits and green leafy vegetables. Several of the international health organizations claim that we only need about 3% of our total daily calories coming from fat. I get about 8% of my calories from fat, even if I am only eating fruits and vegetables. The nutrition equation is quite different when eating a healthy raw food diet. Roger Do You Have These Problems With Your Raw Food Diet? 1. You fear that you aren't getting enough nutrients like protein, calcium, and B12. 2. You have been eating raw but aren't getting the results you expected. 3. You fear eating fruit because of its sugar content and hybridization. I'll resolve these problems, myths and misconceptions for you with a free & no obligation 20-minute telephone or email consultation.
