Thanks for another …
Thanks for another wonderful video…I gotta get the book Kevin..I love your videos keep up the awesome work and continue to touch the lives of many.
Thanks Michelle(Truth578)
i’m easing into it …
i’m easing into it by doing raw mon-fri and off on the weekends. it’s easier to stick to it when it’s just family time and work during the week.
i’m inspired!
Great video! I …
Great video! I always set the intention to eat as healthily as I can, as opposed to always saying I *must* eat raw only .. because when I am thinking health, I always make the best, nutritional choices for myself.
Rather than think what would comfort me, I think about what would add the best nutrition for me so I can live a vibrant life. Then the choices become easy.
I believe raw …
I believe raw vegetables and raw fruits need to become the focal point of the human diet. Im not against meat, I love meat. But sticking to the basics and using just good ol’ common sense seem to be the way to go, in my opion at this time.
I agree with that …
I agree with that as well. I guess its just valuable to allow others their perspective, lest the movement becomes myopic and parochial. Everyones going to arrive at ‘truth’ in their own time, and in their own way.
i’m not 100% raw i …
keep up the good work and love what you do because thats the key to success
i’m not 100% raw i was for 1 month but now i’m lets say 50% i sometimes eat cooked brown rice potatoes and i eat a lot of fruit
hi kevin,
raw …
hi kevin,
raw food includes eggs,fish,meat???because if it is raw veganism, it is simple to be 100 percent raw…
Yes, I’ve met a …
Yes, I’ve met a number of “I’m-better-than-you-because-I’m-politically-and-ethically-and-physically-correct” raw vegans/vegans. I myself don’t think that I’m better than others, but I am often saddened by the obliviousness of others…
HIGH RAW!!!!
Great …
HIGH RAW!!!!
Great job on the book, Kevin!
I’m thoroughly enjoying your writing style and insights.
Thanks for the gift!
Congrats on 300 !!! …
Congrats on 300 !!!!
Principle #1 is good … I’ve been vegetarian for 10 years, raw 85%. Who knew! I don’t like anything in extremes, I do what makes me feel good. If I did 100% raw I would never sleep!
Yeah, I hear you. …
Yeah, I hear you. Same thing here. People I know sometimes look at me weird when I don’t eat junk food, but they don’t understand that I don’t crave them anymore. But I agree. I always tell people who are new to raw foods to not go 100% raw overnight because they’ll just relapse. It’s better to go 80% raw or whatever and reward yourself weekly and work your way up to 100% raw. Weston Price is great. I started out reading their work myself, when I first got into nutrition. Great info.
Thanks so much for …
Getting back to 100 again tomorrow 
Thanks so much for this video, I went from 100% to 0% over the weekend
I prepped and made …
I prepped and made a recipe that took a week (I sprouted some grains, etc.) and it didn’t turn out right. It’s really discouraging… so what you said today is exactly what I needed to hear. It doesn’t have to be all or nothing and I need to allow myself the learning curve. Thanks!
Great advice,that …
Great advice,that sounds like it should definitly help others continue their completly raw eating routine and lifestyle.
Its a fair enough …
Its a fair enough comment in some ways though. There does seem to be an element of narcissism within the raw food community, speaking as a raw fooder myself.
If you exist you …
If you exist you suck air and poop. Sorry.
Thank You so much …
Thank You so much for this video! I have a high raw diet and recently I faltered with it and so many people acted as if I had forsaken it. I love being high raw it is a part of my life and it is an ongoing journey it gets easier with time. You are super motivational! I love principle 1, I feel like I’m right on track again. Thank you. Congrats to you and Anne Marie!
i have a question.. …
i have a question…what if you are eating raw but not getting enough calories, thus energy and dont want to eat high fat and feel sluggish? on the contrary you dont want to/cant afford to eat 80/10/10 style with troths of salads and weekly shipments of fruit…i measured my food intake today and i get 1600 calories at 88/8/4 no wonder i lost 11kg in 5 months! i work out for living and need 3500 and i dont wanna be 64kg as a 5 10 athletic male, seems like a ridiculous situation…any help??
I ordered your book …
I ordered your book Kevin! I can’t wait till it arrives. I do mostly raw but do make a cooked vegan dinner for my phamily
Hey Jack Me too! …
Hey Jack Me too! I’m not 100% raw as I’m a “Westie” (Weston Price proponent) but I do try to incorporate as many living foods in my diet as is humanely possible while giving myself some lee way to deviate if I’m so inclined. I don’t beat myself up if I eat “normal” SAD food, but what is funny is now I no longer crave that junk food!!! It is like a paradigm shift or something or another…
Well… I’d rather …
Well… I’d rather “look” quirky and hippy by sticking to such a diet than contribute to mass global destruction.
i notice how quirky …
i notice how quirky and hippy looking especially isolated organic ppl look. i am sticing with my taco bell. makes me feel more social and a better person. raw people to me are kinda selfish and lonely lol
Congrats on your …
Congrats on your 300th episode!! They’re all great =)
Great video. Think …
Great video. Think “living food”, NOT raw food. I eat 100% raw and I feel great. I think that is the way to go, for me. Since I have been eating a a high raw diet, I haven’t craved unhealthy foods. I think that it can be tough for some people at first, but once their bodies detox, they then crave the healthy foods. For example, I crave Avocados over cake.
Currently reading …
Currently reading High Raw. Thanks much Kevin for sharing & caring! #1 is a great principle & should help us steer from being too dogmatic in food/lifestyle & keep ups in an appropriate path longterm for optimal health!
