There are lots of gurus of the raw food movement, some

with " impressive " credentials, some with none at all. Credentials

are not demanded of anyone by anyone, except if someone is teaching

something that disagrees with the mainline propaganda, the medical

paradigm, the practice of palliation. You can be as impressed as you

wish, with credentials, but they will not lead to health. The truth

about health has been suppressed and vilified for so long, that the

message is rarely heard. One needs to be able to recognize truth

wherever one finds it, and to actively seek it, if one expects to

achieve health, instead of blindly following leaders who preach the

message one wishes to hear.

 

The body is the only one we should follow, Nature and her principles

are the ones we should obey. What kinds of credentials does the body

have? What credentials are found in Nature? It is truly pathetic

that people will go against that which is healthy, which is

rational, which is being demanded by our bodies, in order to obey

those with credentials instead. But that's what we've all been

thoroughly taught, and no one has even suggested otherwise, so that

Nature's voice has been thoroughly drowned out. And it's difficult

to let go of, for so many people, it's their security blanket, so

they hang tight to the indoctrination.

 

The more credentials one has, the more they are going to stick

rigidly to the methods of those from whom they derived their

credentials. Insanity is described as doing the same thing over and

over and expecting a different result. Look around you, the world is

full of people who obediently follow those with the most impressive

credentials. People are mostly obese, sick, dying, from giving over

the responsibility for their health to those with credentials.

 

Most of the raw vegan gurus are saying to take B12 pills, and that

to not take pills is " dangerous " , and " irresponsible " . That message

is tantamount to saying that raw veganism is dangerous and

irresponsible, and that health comes from taking toxic pills.

Meanwhile, other raw gurus are pushing the consumption of animal

products and claiming that to not murder animals and eat their

rotting corpses is " dangerous " and " irresponsible " , and health comes

from consuming toxic animal products. It is all nothing but

hysteria. The gurus, whether credentialed or not, are simply scaring

people into ingesting toxins in the form of pills, potions, powders,

disgusting products made from the abuse and killing of animals. They

are doing it by means of fake stories about myriad deaths and ill

health of raw vegans. Yet they can't come up with even ONE real

example of any of their claims.

 

But the gurus are very busy scaring the poor impressionable raw

vegans. It's not difficult to scare raw vegans out of raw veganism,

as thoroughly indoctrinated as we have been all our lives to eat

carcasses, guzzle pills, obey the " authorities " , etc. And these

people HAVE to find ways to scare raw vegans. I mean, who is going

to consume rotting corpses, embryos, mucus, that is animal products,

especially raw??? That is why cooking was invented, for heaven's

sakes, to make those abominations palatable, and the only reason any

humans ate any animal products in the first place was because our

natural dietary was unavailable amid the snows of the ice age. Now

that our beautiful, luscious natural foods of scrumptious fruits,

greens, nuts/seeds are abundant for us, we have a chance to revive

our health and the Earth. But unfortunately, a parasitic subculture

has developed among raw fooders, of pushing animal products onto raw

vegans, by means of scaring them with claims of " deficiencies " , and

with trying to convince them that eating those substances

is " natural " , and of course giving " lessons " on how to get used to

eating them and overcome the body's natural revulsion toward them.

It's an artful sales job, I mean, how else is anyone going to get

people to eat that crap? Especially when our real food, that which

is compatible with our human bodies, and which beckons to us, is now

available. What idiocy and insanity to impose animal products on

people's bodies!

 

And of course the pills, potions, powders, and all manner of other

nonsense—how else is anyone going to convince people to consume that

junk, except by scaring them of what will happen to them if they

don't take it all? And by convincing them that they " need " these

things, that these substances have magical properties and

intelligence, that these substances are capable of cleansing,

of " balancing " , of " healing " , etc. And that they satisfy

a " deficiency " . That we supposedly have a deficiency of pills! That

pills are a substitute for food. And of course these people love to

bash fruit. Some of these very credentialed people have convinced

the raw populace that fruit is unhealthy, and even that fruit causes

cancer! And of course now they are saying that not taking pills will

result in death!

 

Despite all the toxic junk that is peddled to raw vegans, some of us

have managed to navigate those treacherous waters, and to thrive. We

had been just as indoctrinated with the nonsense as anyone else. But

fortunately, some of us have had access to the teachings of the

truth about health, from those who have sought the real facts about

health, which led them back to Nature, to discovering our true

dietary and conditions of life, which is the only place that health

has ever been found.

Heavens, I don't want people to put their health into my hands! And

I certainly have never asked for anyone to do so. On the contrary, I

seek to impart to people the information that I have been fortunate

enough to find--I am very grateful for it, and it is so valuable and

rare. That information is EMPOWERING! It is empowering in every

possible way, and encourages people to take responsibility for their

own health as well. If they do not wish to, or cannot, then there

are raw food professionals to whom they can turn, professionals who

understand the principles. I feel that Dr. Bernarr Zovluck is far

and away the most knowledgeable and capable, but there are several

others who can be of help as well. But I ALWAYS encourage people to

research, and I give references to guide them to truths which they

may not otherwise find. In my original post about B12, I referred

the reader to an excellent article by Dr. Gina Shaw, which really

summarizes the whole B12 story so well. There are so many books by

notable Natural Hygienists, such as Dr. Herbert Shelton, and Art

Baker, and Hereward Carrington, to name a few; some of these books

are available to read free on line, and they outline the basics of

health. And of course the enlightening articles by Dr. Bernarr at

his www.healself.org. If someone understands the basics of health,

they will not look for health in pills, potions, powders, shots,

inimical substances of any sort--they will understand that health is

not to be found there.

I have always been completely honest and straightforward, and your

accusations are certainly puzzling. I don't have any credentials to

impress anyone with. I have only the message of the truth about

health, which I have learned and lived and continue to learn and

live, and which anyone can read about in the works of Dr. Herbert

Shelton, Dr. Bernarr Zovluck, as well as other great Hygienic

writers both past and present. And their knowledge rests upon the

stable truths uncovered by nothing but MD's beginning in 1822 (these

were MD's who were able to divest themselves of the false medical

paradigm and found truth, which led to such spectacular results in

helping their patients to heal, and which subjected these doctors to

tremendous scorn among their colleagues), which itself rests upon

the solid bedrock of the timeless, immutable principles of life, of

Nature.

 

Those who are not so rigid in their beliefs in the medical paradigm,

can comprehend the immortal truths when they hear or read about

them, for most learning is actually un-learning, and we recognize

truth, since it resonates in each of us--the truth is there in our

bodies, in our consciousness, in every one of our cells, underneath

the untruths we operate on: We have all been steered completely in

the direction away from health, being told the untruths that pills,

potions, powders, drugs of all kinds, cutting and sewing body parts,

animal products, cooked foods, etc., these are what constitute

health. Those who can open their eyes, can see the absurdity of this

paradigm, when faced with truth. Those who are rigidly attached to

their belief in the voodoo of medicine, will always be extremely

uncomfortable when faced with the truth, which they can't argue

with. They don't like the message, so they kill the messenger, lol.

 

I'm simply pointing the way, though I have been vegetarian

and " into " health for nearly 36 years, and have been raw vegan for

nearly 14 years. I've learned a bit about health, by constant

research into the works of those who have uncovered the timeless

truths, as well as empirically. My experience, and that of others

who seek truth instead of a comfortable belief system, confirms that

listening to Mother Nature and those who understand and live

according to her principles, is the way to health; and following

those who lead us away from living according to the natural

principles simply leads us astray from health.
