feeling of well-being! [s].... Elchanan..........

March 17, 2005

Greetings to you Elchanan,

O.k I am not on rawfoods now. I am going to the gym 6 days a week

and need the energy, however if I could be on a rawfood diet 100%

and have enough energy to work out at least 3 hours a time, then I

would be all there.

When I was 100% organic and raw food, I would start off the day with

1/2 glass of wheatgrass juice, then at lunchtime I would have a huge

salad consisting of spring onions, dandelion greens, radishes,

sprouts, tomatoes, watercress, carrots etc, etc. I would feel

completely feel and of course have no energy until the salad had

been digested. I would then snack later on flaxseed snacks I had

made in the dehydrator.

I would very much like to go back on rawfoods again, but I am scared

I wont have the energy as I love going to the gym and that is what I

am fully into at the moment.

My sleep patterns are fine, however my back is hurting like anything

as I have been sleeping on my back to avoid the shoulder ache that I

experience when sleeping on my side and that I get when doing the

weights/set class at the gym. I have no absolute stress in my life

at the moment, especially since going to the gym.

I would love to know of raw foods I could eat that would give me

amazing amounts of energy. I was taking diet pills like Thermogenix

which helped a lot, but I am not into taking these everyday as I am

sure that they are not good for you. The energizing foods would need

to be one's that you can get at an ordinary health food shop like

Mothers or Trader Joes etc.

Thankyou in advance.

Regards,

Ms Indiana.

Ms. Indiana,

It sounds like you are severely under eating carbohydrates. No food can

give you energy. That is what the body does. It takes fuel from

carbohydrates and turns it into energy while you sleep. If you perceive

that a food is giving you energy, it's probably a stimulant and actually

robbing your energy reserves.

Our preferred fuels are the simple sugars found in fruits. I know a

professional basketball player who ate raw while competing. His record

for banana consumption in a day was over 50 I believe. There are even

professional cyclists who can consume up to 14,000 calories a day eating

a raw food diet.

You just have to know how to do the raw diet properly.

P.S. Are you having trouble staying 100% raw? Are you afraid of eating

fruit? Are you sick of the time consuming effort of having to juice,

sprout, dehydrate and ferment your foods? Discover the simple secrets to
