Guest guest Posted December 21, 2004 Report Share Posted December 21, 2004 I hear a lot of people say that after being raw awhile they are not as prone to disagreements and debates. What do many of you attribute this to? Is it just feeling better in your skin or is it a mental type of calm or other? There must be a connection because I've heard it many times. Looking forward to the experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 21, 2004 Report Share Posted December 21, 2004 While that may be a tendency that is supported by going raw, I do have to say I've met some very intense raw foodists; I would just say don't be surprised to see the full range of human emotion in those you meet, no matter what they eat! I know I've been feeling more even-keeled, better able to cope with what comes my way. However, I'm only a short-termer so far. It would be nice to see if there really is a connection that way, but I guess that will only come in time.

Guest guest Posted December 21, 2004 Report Share Posted December 21, 2004 I'd have to say I'm not in this group. For better of for worse I have always been outspoken. Maybe I need to tone down some or learn tact. Now more than ever I see how many lies are propagated in the world from giant business such as pharmacutical companys, food companys, etc. I see many people who are mislead. I feel more outspoked to try to wake people up. It is sad to see how many people that are being duped into suporting these companys. I see it first hand in my family. The older ones are usually on the heavy side and many on medication. I do my best to try to show them there are other ways of taking care of yourself. I try get them to read stuff that will hopefully get them thinking and questioning the status quo. There is also a lot of misinformatino in the raw food world. How many people are keep saying they are 'detoxing' when they are really truly sick from some form of malnutrition. This also scares me. I think I am doing the right thing for my health by eating a diet very high in raw freash fruit. I am adjusting as I go but it seems like there are so many opposing views. Some things are individual issues that may have different answers for different people. Other things are absoulutly apply to every human. When two people disagree on a something like the later they are either both wrong or one is wrong and one right, but they can't both me right on things that have an absoulte answer. Reading stories of people who have lost teeth and done irreversable nerve damage make me really want to find out what is right.

It would be nice if I could eat just fruit, but I just can't believe that only sugary things are a healthy diet. Of course, not everything with a seed is sugary, I eat a lot of avocadoes. > On Tue, Dec 21, 2004 at 02:49:30PM -0800, Valerie Mills Daly wrote: > > > > While that may be a tendency that is supported by going raw, I do have to say I've met some very intense raw foodists; I would just say don't be surprised to see the full range of human emotion in those you meet, no matter what they eat!

Looking forward to the experience. There is definitely a mental type of calm that comes from being raw, but it's wrapped in a calm intensity.

Guest guest Posted December 22, 2004 Report Share Posted December 22, 2004 I theorize that there is a " letting go " necessary to be successful at overcoming multiple addictions. Once we learn to do it on multiple addictions, then we can more easily do it with people, who are also an addiction for many of us. That's my theory. I'm 61 years old and just now getting to the point that I don't have to fight the world and everybody in it. My ego is getting small enough now that what goes on in Iraq, India and Ohio doesn't bother me so much as it did when my ego was bigger.

Guest guest Posted December 22, 2004 Report Share Posted December 22, 2004 It's a shame you feel this way. If more people felt this like you we'd be making no progress at all. I've seen people change. There are many open people looking for a better way. I try to teach people how to learn about what to eat and most of all I try to teach people to teach others.

Guest guest Posted December 22, 2004 Report Share Posted December 22, 2004 A woman I know from another who has done raw food for a few years now said that for her entire first year or longer she had problems with itching all over her body; she thinks it just may have been the way her body was reacting to the changes in her eating and lifestyle.

Guest guest Posted December 22, 2004 Report Share Posted December 22, 2004 I think one of the things being said is that while you can offer information and hope that change will occur, it can only happen if people are willing to change; you cannot force it. It's great when people respond positively to what you are offering; just don't be surprised when they don't. Humility is probably part of the key here as well; we are all learning, what we know is constantly being refined and adjusted as we learn new information, and being willing to change how we see things is very important as we go along.

Guest guest Posted December 22, 2004 Report Share Posted December 22, 2004 But my whole point is there are many people right now that are looking to change their eating habbits but are confused. They don't know if they should be vegetarian or low carb or this or that. I agree you can't force people to change that usually doesn't work. But to think that you can have zero impact so don't even try 'changing' people is not the way to go. If you come across the right people you can help them to make life impacting changes. I've seen this in my curent life. My Dad is actually shifting to a 50/50 diet of raw and my mom could follow. I am directly responsible for these changes. My room mate who smokes 1 and a half packs a day went %100 for a week and is no about %60 raw. I have many friends that are seriously consider the stuff I tell them about raw. They are thinking that it actually makes sense. I feel like a raw food evangilist. People also know me for that at my job and sometimes other peple get refered to me. I have people comming up to me saying 'so and so told me you are into nutrition, bla bla bla' and I'm always glad to try to help them. This may seem odd, but I consider my selft humble. I never will stick to one side of an argument once I see I'm wrong. I like losing debates, because it means I really learned something. The problem is that sometimes being really passonate about something can come across as pushy and I need to contain myself. I have upset peple I live with my being pushy and know that is an issue for me.

Guest guest Posted December 22, 2004 Report Share Posted December 22, 2004 But I guess that's my point as well; these folks are ready, they are looking for change. It looks like you are in the right place at the right time for a lot of folks. I'm not saying that we do not impact lives; only that we cannot force that change. Noone is saying that we don't affect other people, or that we should not try; only that you cannot make people change. And while you may be a pivotal person for some of these folks in making this change, remember that you are only a part of their journey. Things have happened in their lives to prepare them to come to the point of making this change, and other things will follow. It is good that you are honoring the place you and they are at right now; and it looks like you are open to learning and open to what comes.

Guest guest Posted December 22, 2004 Report Share Posted December 22, 2004 Ron those may have only been two words, but " letting go " does summarize it all. Our actions really are under our control at all times. Maybe the return to a healthier and more natural lifestyle makes it easier to grasp that fact. Thanks for sharing.

Guest guest Posted December 22, 2004 Report Share Posted December 22, 2004 Valerie I read once that the lymphatic system is unable to work efficiently in a body filled with processed and denatured foods. I wonder if that system works up and starts working aggressively to clean the body when we transition to better nutrition. Maybe that is what causes the itching. The lymphatic system does expel of waste through the blood stream. I dunno, just a thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 22, 2004 Report Share Posted December 22, 2004 I really don't know Sun. Wish I had an answer to that - but for me it seems that I handle stress better - actually, I've not spent any time trying to analyze it. My life hasn't changed with regard to job, location, relationship, etc ... the only major change has been my diet, so I've nothing else to attribute it to. Maybe it is just the calm that comes with knowing I'm doing something wonderful for my body, for me, and it is completely within my control. ... then progresses to the nutritional benefit that is going on within. ???? cheers terry rawfood , sunflowersupreme <no_reply> wrote: > > I hear a lot of people say that after being raw awhile they are not > as prone to disagreements and debates.

Guest guest Posted December 22, 2004 Report Share Posted December 22, 2004 Hi Michele, I read the article here on the internet, but unfortunately can't remember where. I do know it was an article that discussed how the PH level in an acidic body prevents the lymphatic system from working efficiently and that itching " may " be a sign that histamines have been released as an allergic reaction. That is why I'm curious how transitioning to a raw food lifestyle may increase this reaction. Is it because our bloodstream is now more alkaline which makes the itching more obvious, or is it because a more alkaline bloodstream allows the lymphatic system to move " more " waste through the bloodstream which intensifies the itching? I'm sure it's one of the above, but which? Maybe all huh? lol One thing is for sure, if my body reacts that way only after eating cooked acidic foods, and not to raw foods, that is a definite sign I'm on the right track. I'll do a search and if I come aross that article again I will post here on the board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 23, 2004 Report Share Posted December 23, 2004 That could very well be. I'm actually sort of excited to see what the next years of (hopefully unbiased!) research will reveal. You never know! I know some folks encourage rebounding for assisting the lymph system in doing its job; anyone here do that? I have a rebounder, but have not used it very much at this point.

Guest guest Posted December 23, 2004 Report Share Posted December 23, 2004 I recommend you try some anti-fungal cream on your foot. I had a pretty bad case of chronic itching on the bottom of my right foot, so I bought a tube of athlete's foot cream and put all over my foot before going to bed. Then I put my foot in a plastic bag to keep the lotion on it all night. A week of these treatments cured the itching on the bottom of my foot. It had nothing to do with my diet.
