children not growing on raw diet

[Guest guest]

This diet's not for everyone. It may be perfectly right for someone

to eat an animal product diet depending on their emotional, mental,

physical, spiritual place. I'm robust and healthy, 5'10 " about 150

or 155 lbs, eating raw plant food, produce, as it is, and raw nuts.

And I'm sure I will and I plan to stay that way for the rest of my

life. I may lose some more weight but I expect to always be healthy

and robust eating this way. I don't know the particulars of the

person you're describing, who knows what she was doing? What raw

means to someone is as individual as there are individuals. There's

mental and emotional factors involved and they can contribute to

physical health. I've heard of other people similar to the one you

described. People are funny and it's hard to say what's right for

someone.
