Interesting point about being on "stimulating foods all your life".

[EZdubsteps]

Honestly was eating bag of chips while watching this and decided to go and make this smoothie and so far it is great thank you :)

Just what I needed to hear, just at the right time. With thanks and appreciation. Cathi

[jaymes303]

Looking ripped, seems like you've gained a lot of weight since these videos.

[Timmymtd]

I love how he makes smoothie videos but works in life advice.

[LowFatVeganChef]

The Vitamix is the perfect smoothie machine. Smooth consistency and keeps the finer. Way to go Dan! I have a few fruit smoothie recipes on my channel too. Check it out :)

[jgfergus]

@jrmccaghren

WW is an improvement over the SAD diet for sure. Portion control for those with little will power. But sadly, WW diet is far too high in cooked/processed foods, consumed in poor combinations. Cheeseburgers, chocolate cake, potato skins, pork, pound cake, pizza.....etc. These are not healthy foods, small portions or not. These foods are acid causing, poison the blood, and leave toxic waste residue in the body. For supreme health, fresh, ripe, raw fruits & veggies are always best.

[jgfergus]

Great video Dan. I must agree about Vibrance Magazine. Dave Klein does an amazing job putting together the greatest magazine on health there is. I encourage everyone to support Vibrance by purchasing a subscription. It will be one of the best investments in your health you can make.

[jankez5an89]

[HRWellness]

COCONUTS! GO BABY! love it HR

[Rhinoceroswellness]

hi. Can you explain more to me/us about the adrenalin in animal products??? and why its bad. THanks :)

[TheBlackJuJu]

Please dont put your coconuts in the blender..Cos its gonna hurt !!!

[MJsERnie]

are you ever going to blend it?

[burbanmadness]

thank you i feel better, that your talking about the binges.. its been a rough road for me but im never gonna give up.. i want to live longer,, thank you for understanding..

[2003desiree]

do you get headaches from just starting to juice??? i never get headaches..i bought a juicer today and made a beet, carrot, apple, snap pea, and strawberry juice..it was soooo good, my kids liked it too. i felt good bout en min later then a had a dull ache in my head for bout a hour..any link? is my brain getting something it didnt get b4?...lolz yo0u soo rock..i totally dig ya man..haha. im also on face book!

[AnarchistItachi]

@2003desiree I also got headaches when I started juicing, apparently it's the body detoxing. A solution that worked for me was to dilute the juice with water in the start (To lessen the initial detox), starting with 1:1 ratio in the first week, then slowly reducing the amount of water as the weeks go by. Good luck and have fun :D

[05601234]

I'm on my second day of a Raw Fruit Diet! Because of an illness and I can feel a slight difference already. I hope I can hang on this time and commit to it. It is difficult watching everyone else eat the Standard American Diet!

[ViolinPro88]

here's an idea.

STOP WAFFLING ON AND BLEND THE MUTHAFUKCEN SMOOTHIE!

[shoesarenice]

I'm really tempted to start this because the benefits sound amazing, but how will the raw vegetables give me my needed fat and protein?

[jgfergus]

@shoesarenice

The same way raw veggies give the strongest animals on the planet their fat and protein. Elephants, rhinos, horses, cattle, gorillas get 99-100% of their fat & protein from plant foods. And they don't need a nutritionist to tell them how to do it. They instinctively eat their natural diet. All the fat and protein we need are available in plant foods, in much more easily digested form.

[shoesarenice]

@jgfergus okay thanks :)

[byan213]

Love the Denny's comment!

[jetcadet480]

u are a great man! i would love to be your friend! thank you for your videos and i love you inspiration!!!!!!

[PlayerBAbyOG]

How old is this dude

[meow0meow7]

@PlayerBAbyOG I think he's around 37... it's on his profile. 

[samaya0574]

JUST BLEND THE FRIGGIN SMOOTHIE DUDE!!! Sheeeesh..(walks away in a disappointed huff) ;-P

[Nu13th]

Dan: A ripped vegan neighbor turned me on to the book, The China Study. What an eye opener for me. I now believe in, and practice, the whole plant food diet. And now I realize how, with our own tax subsidized propaganda, duped we've all been about meat and dairy. Anyway, your energy is great!!! I'm gonna go buy some produce now. 'Can't wait to rip into a couple of apples.

[shanike1000]

dude. i like the way you think, but you didn't blend the smoothie.... O_o??

[Downhillrider888]

I really encourage you men. Your way of thinking look realy nice

[TheaDragonSpirit]

I don't mean to sound rude... but I was wondering how you get money to do this stuff? Do you write? how do you do it?

[0624nichkhun]

awww... you didn't blend. T.T

[bookskamaki]

you seem pretty tired to me.i do not think i will try raw diet ever

[krzintegraboi]

i just made a smoothie 3 bananas a 1 cup of grapes 1 kiwi and probably 1 1/2 cup of baby spinach ..i am gonna say that was on super sweet smoothie.. if most of your smoothies are sweet is it bad for you ?? 

[realityvsmyth]

Whats your blood type and zodiac sign? just curious. thanks for the recipe :)

[electricbutterfly65]

What's your take on organic. The biggest challange is the price. What's your opinion?

[93sr20det001]

I've got 2 questions..

1. Is that a vitamix?

2. How much acid have you done?

[misseptember]

@93sr20det001 how much acid ahah lol why ask that

[justFUNdimples]

will he blend?

[213125342]

[random333444]

[Darkuser22]

[MrHarry46]

[tori02baby]

So glad I found you on here! Thank you for ALL the info :)

[Keyboard858]

you look like a badass :D

[Bekkie83]

There is something i dont understand. Ive talk to friends about me wanting to begin a process of eating more raw n vegan food. Its was ok untill i told them about the possible stuff coming outside of me or possible sickness.... Right there they all go "Thats shit, dont do that, it will kill you bla bla bla"...

.........

[Bekkie83]

Ok... What i dont understand is, when i told them i have to take antidepressant because of my little girl died november 16th 2009, and all Adverse effect that comes with it these pills, they all say "well you have to go there to feel bether".

Heyyyy i wanna eat beter stuff to help me out... but that aint god..?!!!... but taking medecin is god?? What the %$/%/ is that! Ive saw my little girl died in my arms, that kick me in the butt to become a more healty person. Thx for the videos Dan!

[gracielinga]

What kind of greens are those? (This is Graciela)

[liferegenerator]

@gracielinga Just check the video's description for the complete recipe! :D

[smoothies4life]

Hello Dan, love that you advice alternations and modifications for smoothies. I am one of those people that is trying to slowly, gradually transitioning to raw percentage wise. Keep the thoughts and videos coming I've been telling others to watch you if they are looking for change in their health and body! love ya!

[37mamak]

[ForFearItself]

this guy is a badass! and the smoothie was good

[XSkidbootX]

damn I was waiting the whole time to see you blend the smoothie! you tease! lol

[BentBuddha]

Bro - what was the green leafy stuff u put in the end?

[liferegenerator]

Kale! Check the info section for the complete recipe... :D

[makedonkainfr]

@liferegenerator where is the info section please?

[liferegenerator]

@makedonkainfr directly beneath each video! :D

[makedonkainfr]

@liferegenerator thank you ! Today i am really at the edge to stop eating raw, I need something tasty!

[makedonkainfr]

@liferegenerator thank you ! Today i am really at the edge to stop eating raw, I need something tasty!

[NicFusionaire]

I really liked this video, really good stuff man, thanks for the information

[sungoodness]

I saw a guy with no shirt and thought wow this will be interesting. And it was, thanks

[spbroy]

Can you use the store bought coconut water?

[liferegenerator]

@spbroy You can...but it isn't as tasty as fresh coconut water...and it isn't raw, either. But if it is all you can get then it is better to have that than to have something like milk! :D

[babygyalk]

sweeeeeeeeeet totaaaaaaly dude !!!!!!!!!!

[coolr77]

is being on a raw food diet good for weight loss and a lot of exercise?

[liferegenerator]

YES! :D

[bungalow1979]

I really like the way you present the Raw Food way of living. Easy and cooll! This is the right way I think! :-)

Best wishes from Germany!

I enjoy your videos!

[beeza2]

Awesome Dan!

Thanks for being U mate!

[bohemiangrove]

Herbs and fruits are the only foods I believe are truly made for the human body. I don't think vegetables are made for us, since many vegetables are man made. (some fruits, like the banana are also man made, or at least altered)

[milokito]

Aye, I see what you are trying to get at, but herein lies the problem (from Wikipedia):

A vegetable is an edible plant or part of a plant. However, the word is not scientific, and its meaning is largely based on culinary and cultural tradition. Therefore the application of the word is somewhat arbitrary and subjective.

Then...as for what an "Herb" is....see my next comment...

(cont...)

[bohemiangrove]

I am not trying to get at anything, so don't need to post more. It's what i believe. You get your beliefs from books and internet . I get them by trying and see what happens to my body.

[milokito]

I actually agree with you, as I can sense what you "mean" but the problem is that 'vegetables' essentially are more or less synonymous w/ 'herbs' in terms of the literal definitions of each. That, and there are 'fruits' which are technically 'herbs,' such as the banana. So I know what you mean, but there just isn't a clear way (that I know of) to express it in linear terms. I'm on your side here, don't worry. ;)

[milokito]

I also get my beliefs by what happens to my body...but if all along you haven't realized that carrots & bananas, etc. are actually herbs, this means you have come up with your own personal definition of what an herb is & what a vegetable is...so if you could define it for us, then we can know what you are trying to say, that's all. What is your definition of a vegetable? What is your definition of an herb? ...and then why would one want to make their own definitions of either?

[milokito]

HERB (dictionary + Wikipedia):

1) any plant with leaves, seeds, or flowers used for flavoring, food, medicine, or perfume

• a part of such a plant as used in cooking

2) Botany: any seed-bearing plant that does not have a woody stem and dies down to the ground after flowering.

HERBACEOUS PLANT (in botanical use simply herb) (Wikipedia):

A plant that has leaves and stems that die down at the end of the growing season to the soil level.

Thus, carrots, parsnips, bananas & more are all herbs! ;)

[fatguyslim]

Dan what do you think about B-12 Deficiency??? I mean I personally think that I can do without dairy but does that mean I will be deficient??? Look at you man... you seem to be very healthy without it but at the same time I have read about vegan people who are heavily deficient in B-12!!! Please explain

[bohemiangrove]

[animateclay]

How do you get enough calories to work out on the raw diet? Just eat a lot more? I'm really skinny and am afraid I'll weigh 100 pounds if I go on something like this. Just from doing some basic juicing - I can say it definitely changes the way your mind works and gives you tons of energy.

[liferegenerator]

If keeping weight on is an issue for you, then just make sure to eat a lot more of the calorie dense raw foods such as avocados, oils, and nuts. Please try to buy the nuts in the shell though as they will be more fresh. There's no need for you to be afraid, just move forward and give it a go! Peace

[cirina7]

Hi guys, anybody know how you find Dan on facebook please?

[milokito]

there's a link on his channel page ;)

krista

[popjappi]

Thanx for your video!! Raw food rocks!!

[riflemanftw]

are you jesus ?

[aipyor]

is that kale you put in?

[lulubellla]

Hi there Dan, already lost a few pounds, my watch is loose on my wrist, so surprised and really pleased about that and it's only 3 days in and I am not completely 'juice only' yet even-so many thanks to you for this brilliant idea of yours. Would like 2 watch all your videos but don't know which ones Ive missed - Is there anyway that you could number them? Don't want to give Christa extra work but it would really be useful...Sos we all don't miss any of your good advice....Hugs to you both...

[xxdanceitoutxx]

you remind me of jesus, with the hair, and ur outlook on life and how healthy you are aha

this really inspires me!

[batman19426]

jesus ate cooked foods such as bread fish meat etc. this guy is not even close to jesus he spouts his bull shit and everyone thinks he a god, really?

[xxdanceitoutxx]

ok did i EVER say he is jesus or i think of him as jesus? no i said his look and outlook on life (how inspirational he is) and he is very smart, you probally sit at home eating mcdonalds all day.

[batman19426]

"you remind me of jesus" his outlook on life is not like jesus's at all. he is not smart ask any dietician if it is better to eat all raw foods or to mix it up with raw and cooked. also how does me disagreeing with your/his philosophy equate to I eat mcdonalds all day? go eat some raw chicken dumb ass

[xxdanceitoutxx]

cuz you said "his bull shit" its not bull shit, and no i dont fully agree with him, i think you should eat SOME cooked foods, but you dont have to to survive!....why are you even watching his video if you don't agree with him? grow up

[batman19426]

I was looking for a fruit smoothie recipe and all i found was this BULL SHIT and you saying he's jesus this guy's a complete tool

[jgfergus]

Why are you so intent on spewing your attacks against Dan? He obviously believes in what he says and it certainly looks as though it works for him. Does attacking him make you feel better about yourself? Are you so lacking in self esteem that in order to build yourself up you must knock others down? That is certainly not something Jesus would condone. Let Dan live his life, and you are entitled to live yours.

[DVDeMm]

You are amazing! What a great example. The best raw food presenter I've seen yet. Keep 'em coming!

[alisez1]

i dig this video! Dan you are the man , and you crack me up! peace ;-)

[CaptainStriker]

Nice one Dan possible the best vid you`ve done.I want to go raw foodest but i think it`ll be pretty had for me at the mo,but i`ve got an allotment and am going to grow as much raw food as possible and i`m going to eat them raw and drink them in smoothies and juices.

Thanks alot Dan

L&L

Carl AKA Grizzly Tiger(want to change my account name to it but can`t :-( )

[shannadew]

Dan!

Once again what a good vid.! My fav. thing about you is that you never pressure people to go 100% RAW! Your always like Hey jus do what you can and the rest will come.

I found saved youtube videos of mine of RAW recipes from 2007... and 2 years later I turn 100% RAW!

Everyone has a time!

Thanks for the vid.!

Namaste!

[AMARANTH500]

very motivational, real, honest, & simple. This is the kind of message that will make it through to people who need to hear it.

thanks again Dan!!

[81manitoba]

This is just what I needed to hear today. Yesterday was my 28th birthday and I decided that I want to start this next year of my life really working towards better health. Today I start my Raw foods journey. Biggest scare is that I'll slip up so this video really keeps it real.

[artyj135]

Thank you for your honesty, it really helps me want to go more into raw food and not feel I have to be 'perfect' (or Californian!). I have eaten more raw since I started watching your films. Other raw fooders make me feel they have got it all sussed and I'm supposed to do what they do; you make me feel I can just be myself.

[silentintroduction]

Your The Boy

[jhardknox]

I had a fig once, it was sweet but was too mushy for me. It was a labeled as a "green fig" but i think it was acutally a totato fig. Are you using a Mission fig in this vid?

[liferegenerator]

Turkish!

[IamDemetri00]

How long did it take on raw foods before your adrenals got back to normal function? I have adrenal fatigue right now and I have been raw for 20 days... I'm just wondering an estimate of how long it took for you personally..

[liferegenerator]

It is a slow gradual process! The longer you stay raw and get plenty of rest the stronger and stronger your adrenals will get! Your adrenals are getting stronger everyday!  Drink parsley juice mixed w/apples and carrots to build adrenal power!

[00witz]

Powerful message Dan. I think this is my favorite video. I can relate to not knowing other people that juice/try to eat raw. We try to tune people into it and we get weird looks a lot of times. Keep the vid's coming and thank you.

[GayleFox]

I've been sitting here cleaning my office as I listen/watch your videos Dan. You are truly engaging, but not only with your physical presence, but your delivery is what keeps me clicking on the next video.

I believe you are saying what many of us are thinking..about life, tv, news, ego, karma...etc. The light bulb just keeps going off when I'm taking in what your saying and going "yes..yes"...Dan..your the man! Kudos!

[majormetamorphosis]

Cool info!

[kammoline]

Love your energy Dan! Also your pared down, simple approach is really refreshing, and makes it look like a breeze to eat raw : D

[SusanBessette]

Hi Dan, i started raw foods in April and have experienced the weight and health benefits.

This week I have been eating like there is no tomorrow. After the bkft smoothie, I'm still hungry. I've enlarged my lunch. I'm still hungry. Dinner, I eat and eat. My stomach is now full, but I still want to eat.

So far the scale has not registered an increase. I hope this phase ends soon before I regain my weight.

Great video, but I say that every time. Now to check out the magazine...

[canadianwargod]

David Klein is the reason I got into raw foods. He wrote the book Self healing colitis and chrons and it saved my life! I've been 90% raw since I read it, about 10 months ago. Off all meds, stomach feels better then ever, I just still don't have the energy these raw folks speak of. Makes sense that it will take time. I do get glimpses of high energy so I stick with it! I do get doubts sometimes that raw foods have everything we need. b12 and stuff... so I continue to experiment.

[Imskinnyinside]

I have a suggestion. I have watched your vids but something thats missing is the end result. You always show what goes into it but not what it looks like after. If you show us what it looks like and maybe even taste it and describe it that would make it so much more real and motivating to try it out. Otherwise it just looks like you threw a whole bunch of health food into a blender and there's no connection there with wanting to try it for those of us who don't eat as well and would like to.

[liferegenerator]

Point is well received! Thank you!

[liferegenerator]

Also these videos are my meals that I eat! It doesn't get more real than that and I do not eat food that does not taste good! I only have ten minutes to share and these videos are very spontaneous and real so sometimes the information is more important than the food itself! I will consider what you said and do my best to accommodate....Peace Dan

[bilko1971]

Have to beat myself up a bit or i just won't do it and the ego , sugar, fat , and salt will win.

[bilko1971]

Cool video Dan, a bit faster than normal but you got it all in under ten.

I checked the link, very informative. I like th eidea about trying to be 80% first but i don't want to rely on that %20 if you know what i mean. I just know i will build up dependency around it.

Think i'll use the 20% as a buffer for if i get really bad cravings. Something that doesn't compliment veg and fruit so i know i need to hunker down some more till its natural.

[veganprincess01]

Cool! Im lookin at the Mag Now!

[liferegenerator]

Thanks I really appreciate that! It is a really great magazine! Love ya...

[AmberThinks]

explains why I've been so tired lately!! Especially coming out of a weight loss plateau i've bumped up my cardio and raw food intake.

thank you for another well informed video!

[logsliderrjh]

Good lesson Dan!
