My Blood Test Results on a 100% Raw Food Diet, episode #631

[fcarabat]

did I hear "bubba" ?

[answerlove42]

I have herpes and use NEEM OIL to drive it off whenever I feel the slightest twinge. It works, buy some off ebay or wherever but do it!!!!!!!

[lyndaraven]

Mat,

what can I do to fix my thyroid? I do not want to take medicine. I

[adoralove]

Thanks for sharing. Where can I get blood test done? What type of test do you ask for?



[liesehaley]

i love watching these two. But is it bad i want to brush his hair...lol it's aways poofy...lol

[WolfTrackerTrail]

@liesehaley it is an act. They are liars.

[MENDUSMEDIA]

doesnt raw food give the digestive system more work, for instance how much raw carrots could you eat compared to steamed carrots.

[arezca]

hey hey! Have you considered intellectus 424 diet (do a google search)? Ive heard some unbelivable things about it and my sister lost lots of weight with it.

[megatrollwarlock]

I think deficiencies are calculated based on your height and weight, so it seems you could be deficient or at least borderline deficient. But your genes must be good since you're able to absorb those nutrients so efficiently. If it works for you then keep doing it by all means, but don't lie to yourself and endanger your health to hang on to the identity of a "raw foodist".

[rmarlowez]

I don't know what your medical tests reveal, Angela, but you look faaaabulous. Your skin, even on this video I can see that your skin is flawless and clear. I have to get some raw food.

Hey, Ange how long did it take you to lose all your weight?

[Chandapanda123]

Angela, you are gorgeous.

[whothehellgivesadamn]

I'VE BEEN A VEGETARIAN/VEGAN FOR DECADES AND I'VE KNOWN ABOUT THE WHOLE RAW LIVING FOODS DIET ALL THE TIME BUT NEVER PURSUED IT, EVEN THOUGH I INCORPORATED THE CONCEPTS INTO MY GENERAL DIETARY BEHAVIOR...I HAVE MORE TO SAY AND DO ABOUT THIS LATER....BUT I COMMEND YOU FOR DOING THIS AND ADDRESSING THIS, IT WAS WORTH IT PUTTING UP WITH ALL YOUR CLOWNING AROUND....NOW I THINK I KNOW WHY YOU DO SO MUCH CLOWNING, IT ALL GETS BACK TO YOUR BABY ROOM AND YOUR MOTHER, WHAT KIND OF ROOM DID THE GIRL HAVE?

[6161251]

In case you've not yet figured it out.... learn how to make nut butter by checking out the vid, "Almond Butter' on YouTube by 'rrrlighthouse'. Thanks for sharing!

[garfinkel]

You've proven nothing. Two years ago, when I didn't eat healthy, but certainly better than the Standard American Diet, my blood work, except for minor evidence that I was a heavy drinker, was perfect. Two years later, as a Paleo Carnivore, eating 80% animal fats, 15% protein, and 5% carbs, and significantly less booze, my levels are still perfect. My point is, you've shown that you personally are okay with your diet. But have not shown that Raw is in any way better. So, your point is?

[yogangel7]

Your blood proof is simply an expression of your genetic propensitys and not indicative how 'how good your diet is'. 

[Rawmodel]

great video...that clown story was classic

[kernowcrone]

I think Angela blogs what she eats pretty much every day on her blog?

[triniwwee]

I think royal jelly is the key to Matt's health. Hi Angela.

[lemonsnlimes333]

raw food doesn't work for everyone....

the best diet is what you like, what makes you feel good, and what makes you happy

of course we should all stay away from fast food, and the worst of the worst.

And if you really must eat meat, make sure it's 100% grass fed, local, humane, free range etc.

[culicomorpha]

@lemonsnlimes333 Meat can be eaten raw, as well. I eat sushi.

[RandomLoveWorld]

@lemonsnlimes333 Give me the sorce, that the RAW FOOD won't work for everyone???????

[SharingAbrahamHicks]

I LOVE how you guys have S_L_O_W_E_D after living there. It's so awesome ! You are obviously comfortable with the slower pace and I LOVE it that it shows in your videos by the way you talk and the way you pause between thoughts. LOVELY !!!

[lazatiger]

I still don't support eating meat or dairy, but if one feels they absolutely must, find a local organic farm and go down to see how the animals are treated. Anyway, I think that veganism on its own without the processed food and refined sugar is the way to go. I flirted with raw food for a while, but I didn't enjoy it. I like my root vegetables and rice (not sprouted, thanks) too much. Eating cooked foods is easier on the tummy!

[lazatiger]

The raw food diet works for some people. Each individual is different; there are varied approaches to the healthy diet. I think that as long as you avoid eating meat, processed foods, dairy and refined sugars, you should be doing pretty well for yourself. I had plenty of relatives who lived well into their '90s. They either raised their own meat and eggs on farms, or they bought from friends or families on farms. They ate a lot of vegetables and whole grains and never any processed food.

[julescurt1]

you guys are such an inspiration! thank you

[gowmukhi]

Do u do any physical activities like hiking, martial arts ? Do you know anybody who does such rigorous physical activities and is 100% raw?

[thevalkyrie8]

@gowmukhi check out 'liferegenerator'. he is 100% raw and if you look back to a few his recent videos there is one where he is showing off his muscles and he is very very toned.

[emilyj1987]

@gowmukhi There are raw body builders, and each year in Boston you see more and more marathon runners who wear t-shirts saying something like "Running Raw" or "Raw Vegan" etc.

[NkaraMarek]

The download was easy, worked the first time. Thanks!

[Sterlacea]

The ranges on lab values are the averages for that specific lab. That range will never reflect people on a very different diet. When it comes to lab values, treat the patient, not the labs. If there is nothing wrong with the patient, don't worry about a slightly low lab level. B12 can be produced by intestinal bacteria, if you get a good flora going and avoid antibiotics, you should not need a supplement. Only western cultures get B12 deficiencies and it's usually from antibiotic use.

[lillbjorneuk]

We can't make B12 ourselves, but bacteria can, so presumably if you have the correct balance of intestinal bacteria (which is more likely on a raw food diet), you may have a good level of B12. Here's a question though, I have pernicious anemia which means my stomach doesn't produce the "intrinsic factor" needed to absorb B12. Can that be remedied on a raw food diet?

[xsliceofheavenx]

matt you should try and straightn your hair

[xsliceofheavenx]

YEA RIGHT

[AnitaL64]

Nice to feel secure your doing the right things. U r very practical and put your point over well. I used to be a professional clown many moons ago and I always felt sorry and sad for that one child who would just freak when we turned up! Oh my, why do we do these things! Lol! Love u 2 n wot u do! Ani Lu.

[BertisWorldYT]

thank you!

[Portland581]

I wish I was 100% raw food diet and stayed 100% raw food for the rest of my life on this Earth.

[quasim0do]

@Portland581 It's just a number. Wouldn't you rather wish to be healthy than to being able to follow some dogma for your entire life?

I think that 100% raw is doable and possibly the best if done correctly. But it's not essential for a healthy life.

[rainzies]

@ruSsettLovE Most people can't. I'm 50% raw just because some days I can't afford to go to the store and spend all that money on raw foods so on a typical day I eat 3-4 days raw, and I don't eat for 2 days, and I eat normal foods on one day after I'm super hungry from not eating for one day. It's not ideal, but I just can't swing 100% raw.

[nes11727]

It does work...and it's not expensive....carrots. raw apples....dried fruit....squash ect.....barley grass powder...wheat grass powder...maca....msm ect ect...The powder is a cheaper way of having veggies at all times..

[Modgoth]

I want to get there so bad!!!! To many evil addictions hold me back. I tried going raw but it's really hard, grew up with the S.A.D as a way of life. I even tried juice feasting to drive out the addictions, loved the way it made me feel, but was starving no mater how much fresh juice I drank, quit after 5 days.

[quasim0do]

"Like sailors... and clowns" :D You are lucky to have such a funny companion Matt.

[vaw1979]

what are angela's thoughts on defeciencies??? Are her blood tests as good as yours? just curious. WHat about the FACT that no other being on EARTH cooks their food?

[scalothis]

I was eating raw and thinking I wasn't getting all needed. Then I juice feasted and I realized how little nutriments and how much fat I had been getting eating solid raw. When I break my feast I will continue to have at least one quart of green juice a day as well as spirulina etc along with solid raw. I finally get what Matt is talking about.

[AAAninja]

Check out the blood test that they do at the Hippocrates Health Institute. Dr Brian Clement talks about it. I think it involves looking inside your macrophages as well as the standard test. It could be up to $400. email him to get the info.

[whorlus]

Loved the interview with Vitalis, thanks very much for that

[priscyore]

good for you, what about Angelas's bloodwork?

[sathlin]

Read Dr. Gabriel cousins blog titled " Deficiencies on a Meat based diet"

Unless you know what you are doing like matt and angela,

Everyone should supplement with b12, a whole food multivitamin, d2/3,an omega 3 source & magnesium and zinc.

There is no simpler insurance policy you can have then that. why risk it.

[fetymann]

here, to make it easy for you all... therawfoodworld . com/audio/vitalis2.mp3

[CharlesTRose]

very nice interview with Daniel. I think vegans would be much less abrasive if they would just admit that they are doing it for spiritual reasons and get off of the whole ideal human diet nonsense.Also just because you say something that sounds reasonable doesn't make it correct.

[ruthshivani]

I like how you brought content of newsletter into video. I love watching rather than reading.. much appreciated x

[tillyzaratustra]

GUYS, "mal" in spanish means evil, bad...OR ILLNESS, depending on the context!!! MAL DE HOLANDA, means dutch illness/illness from holland, not evil!!! LOL!!!! just thought you'd like to know!! hope she gets better! much love from madrid, spain

[partikularum]

You finally convinced me just scheduled my first colonic exiting :-)

[Food4Health1Spirit]

Matt and Angela don't eat pure vegan, since they eat bee pollen and royal jelly in quantities most people can't afford.

[uncklebuck1]

U r great my brother matt in the force:)

[RawFoodForMyLife]

Matt & Angela you are 100% right. So far eating Raw Fruits and Vegetables was the best decision I could have made. Not only has my Health Improved Drastically but I'm losing weight at the same time. I have now lost over 70 LBS in about 2 months. I feel better than I have in probably 10 years. I'm enjoying the food and also the results. Thank You both for your great information. You're Friend Bill...RawFoodForMyLife

[mariaperiwinkle]

Matt, how do you not get hungry by waiting so long to eat?

[JuggaloOzi]

The B12 argument keeps going around and around.

I think Daniel started a whole new wave of it with his new blogs about eating meat.

Thanks for sharing your results Mr Monarch.

[Nuwerra]

About the pony,maybe this,

“Sore mouth,” also known as “scabby mouth,” or contagious ecthyma, is a viral infection caused by a member of the poxvirus group and is an infection primarily of sheep and goats. But can affect horses....or possible 'Bot', ,poor creature......

[boob1019]

Do not spill anything on that white shirt, Matt

[boob1019]

If someone has a test on the SAD diet and is deficent? take a pill... On Raw and low on B 12 or iron etc. They say have cheeseburger. Would you like fries with that.Everyone has deficiencies. So what. Go raw . Or add more green foods.

[airheadial]

What about your eyesight and glasses? Can this be handled by eating raw?

[airheadial]

What about your eyes and glasses?



[rawprincess954]

Bravo Bravo!!

[supernaturalhealth]

This is the most insightful, intelligent, most well thought, and best video you have ever made. You are setting a very fine example for today's youth. Thank you for putting this information out there, I will definitely direct my patients to watch this episode...

Good Health to both of you and Stay Strong -

[Squirrelletta]

I would love to hear both your thoughts on how you think your relationship would evolve should one of you decide to change your diet someday? In other words, should one of you decide to no longer be raw vegan or vegan at all. I think about that sometimes and wonder if both of you have ever discussed that with each other. :) Thanks...

[EnlightenedSky]

I, too, would love a "day in the life of Matt and Angela's raw food meals". :-)). Can't wait to watch the interview.

[WinWinSituations]

iridescent!

[kaley0000]

i think it would be every helpful if you would make a video on what you eat on a average day. i have been vegan for many years and recently been reading alot about the raw food lifestyle, and like want you said in one of your last videos rawfoodist have been dropping like flies so i dont realy know who advice to take because i realy want to make the change but i afaid that i will end up quiting like them because of health issues p.s i just order raw spirit and i every exicted about reading it

[smashinmelancholy]

@kaley0000 Angela writes what she eats every day on her blog

[InnerBeauty2006]

Thanks for debunking that myth guys!!

[KrisMTL]

Doesn't it cost an arm and a leg to eat raw? Just eating organic is costing me more than rent, lol.

[RedWolfSorcerer]

@KrisMTL Yes... yes it does!

[TheRiffShaman]

@KrisMTL This why more people should study permaculture!

[anitius101]

@KrisMTL I found this blog today, raw on 10$ a day or less. rawon10(dot)blogspot(dot)com , maybe it works for you if you're interested

[smashinmelancholy]

@KrisMTL "Superfoods" tend to be expensive, but you don't need to depend on those. Its more important to eliminate processed foods and eat lots of fresh fruits and vegetables and drink from a pure water source. I still eat mostly conventionally grown produce which I know is still so much better than eating processed foods or fast food. You can also save money buy growing easy things like sprouts.

[supernaturalhealth]

@KrisMTL

It need not be excessively expensive. Keep with the fundamentals, fruit and vegetables that can be eaten raw. Next would come herbs and a couple of basic superfoods such as a green or red powder, with a little homework, these can be found at pretty reasonable prices. When it comes to the more exotic luxary products or gourmet raw items, keep a watch for sales and alternate what you buy based on what fits your budget.

Good Health
