Gabriel Cousens discusses how sugar works the brain

[TheElectricRider]

I prefer Raymond Francis's books. This guy above Gabriel Cousens is into eastern religions and he merges his factual provable scientific information with eastern philosophy - something a true medical doctor spouting facts should never do. You cannot force a certain spiritual belief on everyone however the laws that govern our bodies nutritional needs will work for sinner and saint alike. Science is needed here not mysticism. That's this guys big problem. He should keep the two separate.

hi

can someone please help me with this question.

Would it be acceptable to use BAKING SODA and put in into 1 cup of water and drink it?

I have heard that Baking Soda helps make water more Alkaline.

Thank you

taste aversion is AWESOME!!!

[MartinoTeixeira]

He looks amazing for someone nearly hitting 70 and super fit.

[herbal1971]

He kind of looks young and old at the same time.

What cannot be denied is that raw food worked for those diabetics in the film.

Hey unless it's a big lie... yeah right. Raw food works and makes you feel great. Deal with it!

[falavored]

mid 30´s.. haha, look closer. I´ve met many ppl that are 65 that looks

far better. He looks worn out, drained.

That is what I meant, low calories is the key, not eating raw.

[HigherPlanes]

@falavored Low calories is the key to what? He looks very good for almost 70. If you've met someone that's nearly 70 that looks better than this guy I want to meet that person.

[falavored]

he looks like a guy in his mid 60´s that has had a rock´n roll life behind filled with drugs and alcohol. No offense but he does not look healthy. Eat less and exercise and you will feel great. If you want spiritual awakening, raw may give you some open-minded ppl, but it´s not the food that is the key.

[777TylerJB]

@falavored Are you joking? He has no wrinkles and looks like he's in his 30s at the most. This guy can do over 600 pushups. For being nearly 70 and being on a calorie restricted diet he looks amazing.

[turquoise88]

@catherine8raw The evidence for where Gabriel is amazing is in his huge book Conscious Eating. You have to read/skim through the whole thing. It has phenomenal information and is stunningly written.

[adamc404]

i know he's not a big fan of a high fruit diet, but he didn't even mention fruit sugars.

[777TylerJB]

@adamc404 The problem with fruit is that it has been hybridized to be way sweeter than it's original components. That is why you want to get your carbohydrates from sprouts mostly. Sprouted grains are very good.

[herbal1971]

@adamc404 He's against using fruit when you're healing with raw food. I think he's ok about it after the person's got into the swing of it, as it were. 

[bigbrother1994]

what about the "blood type " of a person and their most appropriate diet. ??

different blood types would preform better with different types of food. so say "o+" would require more meat in their diet.

[nefandix]

@bigbrother1994 it does not matter if you read the book about that theory of Peter D'adamo, you will see that he put emphasis ON raw fruits and vegetables, as the priority of the menu. But you can experiment on your body and decide what is better for you, the important thing is to make changes and experiment other forms of living.

[joemammasboy]

"It's got opiates in it."

lol

[apocalist420]

@joemammasboy It is funny because it is true. You may want to research what he meant. I know of two extremely common opiates that I struggle with, Caseomorphin and Gluteomorphin (gliadorphin). Besides "comfort food" is really just opiates if you were to examine biochemical reactions. :D Oh and BTW you can also go through withdrawal from these foods just as you would caffeine, granted it is not as severe as heroin but it is difficult.

[Catherine8raw]

@apocalist420 If you breakdown the caseomorphine etc. in your gut via making enough protease and not having candida which puts holes in your gut so a large imcompletely digested protein molecule passes thru you called caseomorphine. Think about the inuit, masai, they are not all druged up. Out guts are messed up!

[apocalist420]

@Catherine8raw Well, you are correct. Although, I don't believe milk is for human consumption either way. But yes, thanks to the SAD, our guts are messup up big time.

[Catherine8raw]

@apocalist420 I agree that COWS, GOATS, SHEEPS milk is not suitable in the ideal world for humans. Although the masia do well on it, it seems! Other animals share their milk and adopt other BABIES but they do not offer milk to other animals in adulthood like we expect. Maybe we think we are big babies, LOL! Maybe we just grab everything we can get!

[schazam04]

so fruits don't make the brain act up but white sugar? hence the 80 10 10 . Does anyone know what I mean?

[Marta7350]

I've been addicted to sugar all my life. It's pitiful. My mood swings have been unreal, as have my mom's and grandma's b/c of this legal drug. I have cut down from every day to once a week. ATM I couldn't do less b/c it's what I look forward to once a week. But once a week is better than 7 days a week. I am so addicted but his words give me hope. <3

[apocalist420]

@Marta7350 Im with you with that, similarly. I have problems with gluten and sugar. I wish I could help you but I haven't helped myself completely. I have heard things such as vitamin c supplementation and exercise and lots of water help.

[Timsee40]

fruit taste way better than vegetables

[mowriter]

that waveform motion versus flatline motion resonated with me; being raw for two weeks, really just stopping coffee for that time, my energy level was consistent, not huge peaks and deep valleys. And yeah, I felt clearer.

[ToolsnFire]

Beware, your body will reveal what's good for you over the long term: Cooked food, animal flesh and products, and then plant foods. Hundreds of thousands of years of Homo species history attests to that. And your body will show the results too. Stray, and you'll have problems, and age faster, like Viktoras. It's all about balance and what we are best adapted to, to thrive.

[stillanego]

What did you just say? I didn't understand it.

[GoogleTRUTHRISINGnow]

I love G.Cousens. His Spiritual Nutrition book is great. He's really helped me on my raw path...

[RenegadeMystic]

Gabriel Cousens is amazing.

[Catherine8raw]

@RenegadeMystic  wheres the evidence that Gabriel cousens is amazing?

I saw Dave the raw food truck driver on your tube who followed his advice and I was amazed too. But green juice, veganism, is it really healthy long term? Keith Liere who wrote the Vegetarian Myth, is dead against it after been vegan for 20 years! Gabriel has a nice aura and gr8 attentions but wheres the proof veganism and 100% raw is best?

[silents08]

@Catherine8raw the proof is, wheres the proof that eating unhealthy is bad for you... look how many illnessess and dis ease comes out of having a bad diet alot of people who end up in hospital are there bcoz of a poor diet thats all the proof one nedes

[Wolvve]

@RenegadeMystic I just ordered one of his books, Spiritual Nutrition, i cant wait to dive into his genius.
