[classyjewel]

Dave you are an AMAZING inspirational man!

[classyjewel]

Love. You guys! Dan you Rock!!

[yogeshece99]

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

[lateraldeano]

Dave the trucker is a warrior

[jenny7862011]

Any person here got word of Gallactico 324 Diet (google it) ? My girlfriends mom lost tons of weight using Gallactico 324 Diet.

Raw food truck driver Dave is great. He's seen amazing results with raw foods. We see him at SunCafe in Studio City, near Universal Studios, often.

SunCafe Voted #1 Raw Food in L.A. and #1 Smoothie in L.A. (Kale Shake)

[FundiNation]

hey man i really recommend that you check out the venus project. just google it and if you'd like, tell everyone about it. i think you would make a huge difference

[melissam0ss]

Green leafy food (raw) are the biggest source of complete viable protein on the planet! What do cows eat?!! If humans eat enough raw leafy greens and raw fruits the enzymes will turn your digestive tract back to health and humans DO have the ability to MAKE B12 in our gut! So dispel the myth of needing to eat meat to get B12. Once your GI tract is restored you will be able to have the B12 you need from the raw greens you eat. You can find this out by research. "The China Study"-starting point!

[teawithsu]

What's with the Purdue chicken commercial at th beginning of this video? How GROSS!

[Xlolita89X]

Do you need vitamins suplements? Like B12? Surely you don't get ALL vitamins from it, or do you? I need some info!

[WheezyBeardLover]

lol were having an interview over some coke and grass! XD cocaine and weed? lol

[Greenvegan828]

Tell me, why can people think it is hard to be into natural foods yet they can go back to eating such garbage?

[fitlifetv]

Love the video Dan the man! This is the way of the future. Thomas Edison said the future of medicine will take on more of an alternative/preventitive approach. It's really starting to look that way.

[Grace88Anderson]

does dave has his own channel?

[DanielManahan]

If he is dyslexic does that mean he really lost 871 lbs?

[brilliantou]

you change my life

[brilliantou]

Thanks to Dave and Dan!

[siliel09]

wow! so wow! so inspiring!

[jimmytube717]

was there any exercise involved with this weight loss ?

[rehndawg]

its doesnt matter...no mistake man...12-15 very close...nice job

[icecreamrulz420ya]

when you juice fruits and veggies what types of foods do you combine for your juice. I heard juices are really good for you but what are some examples of food that you use for your drinks.

[VonLeachim]

if anyone would get at me with some recipe ideas - I'd be thankful

-whole new way of doing things a comin to my house.

[alch3mist785]

@TwinUzis well have you been to the doc to check more subtle malnormities? Like clotting or etc? Cuz yeah I know people that eat tons of chips a day and are super skinny, but i dunno about their more specific medical effects

[TwinUzis]

I eat mostly meat and dairy. Very, very little fruits or vegetables. I'm healthy enough. Just saying.

[medeableu]

@TwinUzis google Jim Fixx. He was a runner who swore that as long as you exercised you could eat whatever you want. That is, of course, until he died of a heart attack while on his daily jog. The autopsy revealed that atherosclerosis had blocked one coronary artery 95%, a second 85%, and a third 70%. There are a lot of factors to consider. If you happen to be young you could eat shyte and be "healthy". Your body will do whatever it needs to keep you alive, but it will only do that for so long.

[medeableu]

@medeableu It is my understanding that Jim Fixx was a big meat eater.

[khalilahinjapan]

he looks like my dad. I just started juicing for breakfast and dinner. I feel better.

[khalilahinjapan]

also that guy is right about the great vegan food on the west coast. On the east side, esp in the south...in my state of Alabama, they dont have any healthy restaurants. Most of the food is nutrient dead. Its getting so bad that a lady on the radio station called in and said is it normal for her that she only takes a crap once a month?! Someone needs to go to birmingham alabama..esp in the African American neighborhood and teach them about healthy eating. So many people are sick there.

[MusicJew158]

How tall is Dave?

[Brenda4830]

Well no wonder the country is having a recession...if truck drivers have stopped eating crappy fast foods....lol! Stay tuned for marketing specifically aimed at truckers, I'm sure!

[ameliabedelia99]

Eat raw vegan helped clean my body of so much disease, but eventually ran into a wall 2.5 years in - healing was no longer happening and i was starting to experience symptoms like hair loss, difficulty going to get groceries because i was so tired or short of breath, swelling in legs, scaly lips/skin - turns out i was deficient. started to eat fish, oysters, beans, and eggs in addition to the greens, vegetables, fruits, and nuts and am feeling/looking better and better.

[ameliabedelia99]

@ameliabedelia99 ate... if anyone knows how to eat raw vegan and get the recommended daily intake of vitamin D, riboflavin, iron, and zinc please let me know!

[honest2dd]

thank you angels

[doighe]

I am so impressed thank-you for sharing.

Diane

[sbdreamin]

More power to you Dave! You are an inspiration to regular Joe's who need to clean up their lives, lose weight, and take responsibility for their health. Congrats on your journey and thank you for helping average people learn about the power of raw foods.

[nightmathzombieethan]

I don't know if I could live an "all vegan" lifestyle but I can easily see myself being 99% vegetarian! I am presently overweight (260) 6'3" I should be 200-210. I have been hospitalized for high blood pressure and my dr says that my weight is one of the major causes. While I could see myself quickly switching my diet, what would you suggest for the basics? I think I would have to go grocery shopping and just buy a crapload of fruits/veggies... I guess I just don't know where to start?

[liferegenerator]

@nightmathzombieethan Fruit for breakfast! Salads for lunch!

[Deradune]

@liferegenerator Also good raw fats are essential -- chia seeds, pumpkin seeds, young coconut water and flesh, avocado, nuts (but not too many of those!)

[JCR37]

@liferegenerator I was wondering if you could make a video on how to help with kidney failure.. Please it would mean alot.

[montyloree]

@nightmathzombieethan eating raw foods will help blood pressure immediately... it's helped me... my blood pressure was very high.... with raw foods it's coming down nicely.

[sacraficialangel7]

@nightmathzombieethan firstly, beans are a really good source of protein, as are mushrooms. Make sure you have about twice as much fresh vegetables as protein stuff on your plate at every meal. remember, you can't eat too much veg, especially if it's raw. go get yourself a few vegan cook books. they'll help you know where to start. if you search "raw food recipes" here on youtube there's a few good, filling recipes as well :)

lastly, learn how to flavour food with herbs and spices :D

[montsyblackmadonna]

Dave,how bad was your kidney's,what percent of functioning were you at before the raw foods,and what is your kidney functioning now.

My mother has type 2 diabetes,and has bad kidneys,at about 25 to 30 percent functioning,do you know if the raw food diet can reverse her kidney damage or is damage beyond repair.

[liferegenerator]

Dave was dying! Your mom can get well with raw foods and green juices!!!

[montsyblackmadonna]

@liferegenerator

I am trying so hard to convince her that the raw food diet is the way,

I am very frustrated,she is in the hospital right now,the hospital food is posion,

she went into kidney failure at christmas and she has diabetes,and had her leg amputated,and has now had 4 heart attacks,

I am trying to save her life,

we don't have much money,

and I feel overwhelmed.

I switched to an organic vegan 90% to 100% raw diet about 9 months ago.

[mattpulham]

nice 1 dave

[DauntlessDiva]

Dave, you are RAWesome!!! Keep it up!

[S67906]

Thank you for these segments. I love that you cleared up the pounds loss time 16 months. 12-16 months you lost it, your enthusiasum is enough for me. You are teaching me. I am obese working towards 100lbs weight loss. Thank you

[1dsunhope]

when is dave going on some mainstream tv show? he is a great inspiration, he is just a normal joe.

[liferegenerator]

You get plenty of AMINO ACIDS on the raw food diet! Your body cannot use protein...

[katiatomsk]

OK, so I am overweight. For a week I have been adding raw foods I like. One week later, I am almost eating all raw. I can't stand the taste of cooked food and crave the raw.

Is that normal?

Also, today I tried to eat a regular meal and the slim that was formed in my mouth, made it all come back up. Is that normal or is my body rejecting the cooked food just for now?

[liferegenerator]

Raw food is real food! You are right on schedule! :D

[katiatomsk]

liferegenerator: thanks for your comment. I see my thinking was wrong about raw food not being normal food. Really, raw food is the greatest normal food, I sold out to the thinking of processed food being normal.

I decided to eat like any other Thanksgiving holiday. I feel tired and brought down. So, I will start tomarrow fresh on real "normal" raw food again.

[panzerrune]

This is amazing. I've been interested in doing a raw food diet for a while and this really motivates me. My only question is, do you get enough protein from the nuts and seeds?

[greenrocketfuel]

I trust and love all of you . No need to apologize for any thing ,stay cool -stay strong- stay lining AAA+++

[Phyle9]

Really cool. Congrats!

So do you do juices and rawfoods like in fasts, or ALL the time?

In the last case, so you eat only fruits and vegetables? Do you also eat pasta and carbs? Just wondering...Sorry if this was a stupid question.

[liferegenerator]

Just fruits vegetables nuts and seeds!

[Phyle9]

All the time? So no carbs at all??

Or just like this in "fasts" ? (once in a while i mean)

wow...

[liferegenerator]

No carbs! Juices and raw food recipes!

[Phyle9]

WOW! :O amazing.... so you don't eat eggs and cheese too... umm.. so really VEGAN kinda? my respect to you! I try to eat a bit more healthy (which is in fact eating some vegs and fruits, which already is a succes for me ;-) hehe) And drinking water.... I am interested in raw foods and more fruits/vegs. Thank you for inspiring! btw: no carbs at all...so umm.... you get all your needed stuff? In vegtables are carbs, right? hmmm... i still have a lot to learn about food. Thank you

[liferegenerator]

Carbs come from fruit!

[emeraldsunsets]

Raw vegetables fruits and nuts are good carbs. They are complex carbs. Bread and pasta are bad carbs. They are simple carbs. Anything that is processed, such as ground up, filtered, cooked, etc. is NOT raw.

I tried to be raw, I ended up extremely b12 and vitamin D anemic. The anemia made me exhausted. It isn't for everyone. I am just regular vegetarian right now.

[RachelMarie81]

I went Vegan in March 2009...stuck with it for about 5 months...haven't done so well lately, but am interested in going raw, mainly for health reasons. It's important to know that as vegetarian and especially as vegan it's very difficult to get the B12 that you need. You need to take a B12 supplement, and as for the Vitamin D...just step out into the sunshine. :)

[thatbastardson]

depends on where you get your b-12 from. you can't spirulina and chlorella are both raw plants, and have more than enough b-12.

[quietstorm403]

@RachelMarie81

b12 is a very controversial issue, Many raw vegans claim to NEVER need any b12 supplement and are doing fantastic ,  are very Healthy

Dan is one of them, alot of b12 supplements are animal based food

[montsyblackmadonna]

@emeraldsunsets

Vitamin D mostly comes from the sun not food !

[mizzpurpose]

Hey Dan, how is Dave doing??? his story and journey are so captivating :-)

[liferegenerator]

Dave has transformed in the last week like a friggin miracle! It's unreal! How! Colonic!

[KARINinLaLaLand]

on raw food can you cook grains like rice and quinoa in plain water no oil or salt?? is it still ok, because i know cooking can also enhance nutrition in some foods...please answer

[liferegenerator]

If those will help you to stay balanced they are good foods for you! In raw food we cook nothing...

[WorkOnWellness]

Thank you for sharing.  This is very inspiring.

[liferegenerator]

Find one!

[xthedownfallx]

loved meeting you dave and dan too.

[jameslikebond]

@7:13 when he says that you are loved, you are truly loved.. how did you come to this conclusion?? I don't mean it in a bad way, I listen to Abraham Hicks and she says all the time that there is great love here for you.. but just wondering how one comes to this conclusion. I am happy that you have, I would like to as well.. to get the feeling of it... know what I mean?? A reply would be greatly appreciated!! :) I hope I made sense! :)

[RawHealingPatch]

enormous love and support to dave...he is evidence that anyone in my family who is sick can do this as well...and he even did it on the road as a truck driver! i will share this with others...

[myroadhome]

You awesome Dave!

[coconutboi11]

12 or 16 months. It's still amazing. Yes you drop weight very quickly by juicing. At the point i'm at now. I eat about 1 1/2 - 2 hours after a morning juice. It doesn't fill me up at all.. As far as Raw foods? The more weight you lose, the more toxic your body was. Before my 10 day Master Cleanse into "High Raw Vegan" I was almost 150lbs (at 5'6) I'm 129-130lbs now. So i was pretty toxic. I'm still not where I'd like to be, weight, diet wise. I see it as a journey though. Not a destination.

[tfh962]

another great video. I am going to try this big time. I'm almost raw now. But I have alittle way to go. I keep turning back to meat. But your vids are encourging.

[foxielocs]

wow...amazing...what an inspiration....love you guys...

[eshwaar101]

great vid as always. can you post the name/aurther of the book dave was talking about for the cure to diabetess. thanks keep the vids coming
