Guest guest Posted April 17, 2005 Report Share Posted April 17, 2005 rawfood On Behalf Of Lynne Sunday, April 17, 2005 5:37 AM [Raw Food] muscle definition Hello everyone - I wanted to do an update on Nick and I - we are both well - we went to the movies last night - usually have a BIG ice-cream there - but last night we took a bag of grapes each and ate them instead - cant say it was EASY (the icecream is a bit special there but last time I ate it I wasbut we did it so that is a first and means we stay 100% raw. Nick has discarded 14lbs in weight - he is a very active man playing lots of sport and running etc., and he is now very slim but with great muscle definition and a very attractive look about him. Before raw Nick used to snack every night on salted peanuts (vegetarian but worried about getting enough protein!!!) - he would eat quite a lot of these things - he had tried to lose 7 lbs forever but couldn't get any weight off. He is so pleased with how he looks and feels now - he is enjoying being raw as I am - he says he is going to join the group too - I hope he does and then he can tell you himself! Love Lynne _____ Hi Lynne, Thanks so much for sharing this with the group, as we discussed!! I'll fill in a bit of accompanying explanation. Try a bit of research. Look at OLD photographs (50+ years) of people who are very trim and have excellent muscle definition. Compare these with similar photographs of people today. In most cases, you'll notice two completely different images of " well-defined muscles. " Those in the older group will appear smaller but VERY lean and clean-looking. In contrast, those in the present-day group will probably appear large but rather bulky and ill-defined in comparison with the first group. Why? Everyone in the present-time group is consuming lots of " protein " (whatever that actually means in each person's diet) and salt, among other things. The body is unable to remove all the excess/toxins, so the body puts the materials into solution in either water (for water-soluble material such as salt) or fat (for fat-soluble material). Much of this encapsulated trash is then stored under the skin and in the muscles. This can create the illusion of very large muscles, but when you begin eating a really healthy diet, the body eliminates the trash, and what remains is the true muscle, looking REALLY GOOD!!!! Just one more benefit of living in harmony with Nature! Best to all, Elchanan NOTE: Physical activity is an integral part of healthful living. Eating a wonderful diet is not a substitute for physical activity, you cannot create healthy, strong lean tissue by eating alone. The body constructs lean tissue in response to activity, specifically load and impact. -- ---------------------[ Ciphire Signature ]---------------------- vlinfo signed email body (2211 characters) on 17 April 2005 at 14:16:47 UTC rawfood ------------------------------- : Ciphire has secured this email against identity theft. : Free download at www.ciphire.com.
