I've been vegetarian since 1987, and have been eating mostly fruit during the day for the past decade or more because I would get horrible low blood sugar crashes after eating grains. Fruit was the only thing that made me feel really good and didn't trigger hypoglycemia. I've been experimenting with 80/10/10 for about five years or more, but never followed for more than a week or two, mainly due to undereating and cooked food cravings. I have been 100% LFRV since June 2011 and am constantly experiencing HIGH ENERGY, clear mind, happiness - all of the time, with no more blood sugar crashes! My emotional state is balanced and calm, I am much more present and in the moment, and able to concentrate while doing my spiritual practices. Though I tried to follow this diet many times over the past five years, I would usually give in to cooked food cravings about a week or two later. This time, once I hit the three week mark, something shifted and it was like all the detox symptoms and cravings disappeared. The difference in the way I feel on LFRV and the way I felt when eating cooked is tremendous. I used to suffer from severe hypoglycemia, fatigue, muscle weakness, headaches, depression, irritability, heart palpitations, gallbladder/liver pain. But all of these symptoms have disappeared simply by changing my diet. The benefits so far (one month raw): Sleeping soundly High energy with NO "crashes" at all, no fatigue ever! Happy More social Much more centered and grounded - in the moment Spiritual practices are much more effective - feel connected No more irritability, anger, and other intense emotional reactions Increased self-esteem Mentally balanced and peaceful The most noticable difference by far is the consistent ENERGY! I can hardly believe it. It's like I didn't even know what true health was until now - like something was missing from my life for 42 years....and now that I've found it, I feel like shouting it from the rooftops! I used to get tired just from climbing stairs, and now, I want to RUN everywhere, it's remarkable! A miracle!
