Our community would be delighted to know you better. Please tell us more about yourself and what brought you to the Frugivore Diet. Detailed responses will only be accepted (feel free to reapply with more detail if at first not approved as a member).
My husband and I have been trying raw food for over 3 years now, but we've always fallen off the wagon. I've been vegan the whole time (close to 5 yrs now), but found it hard to stay raw on a high fat raw gourmet diet. It wasn't until my husband (Francisco) joined your site did we get hooked on 80/10/10. We're reading the book now and we love it! We've been doing 80/10/10 now for a few months. I don't know why so many ppl. in the mainstream movement speak so badly about 80/10/10. It's the only way to do raw food right. Going vegan and then raw has been the best for us and I have cured myself from so many ailments such as severe asthma, depression, and anxiety. I just feel that now it would be good to join a community to stay motivated. We love all of your videos (Harley's+Freelee's) and look at your community as such a source of inspiration and the image of "true" health. I mean it doesn't make sense to follow a doctor or anyone else who has their gut hanging around their knees. I'm just not convinced. All I know is that I feel better than ever. I just had some blood work done and the doctor was shocked at how healthy I was and especially my Urea levels. He said that he has so many problems getting that level low on his patients and mine was lower than the normal range. I mentioned to him that I was vegan and only ate fruits and veg. I wanted to hint to him that meat and other cooked junk is the real problem here. Well anyways, I hope that I can join the community and participate.
