Jordan Rubin talks about a Raw Vegan Diet part 2 of 3

[jkhguimn2]

Holla! Have you considered intellectus 424 diet (search on google)? Ive heard some amazing things about it and my work buddy lost tons of weight with it.

[pikmin196]

I just think that just by looking @ Jordan..I'd say GOD would probably prefer men to look more like Jordan's build (which is attained by his eating habits) than..lets say men that eliminate all animal products. Now that being said I cant speak for GOD but just seems to be how THE MAKER would design the human males. I mean who would you want protecting you walking down a dark alley? No offense meant for the Paul.

re: comments that if vegans wanted to build more muscle, they just need to lift more weights. But, they also need the stamina and long burning fuel sources which I'm finding difficult to get from a raw vegan diet, unless i have brown rice etc...otherwise, fruit metabolizes very quickly and i crash before a good workout. I think having more muscle is healthier, sexier, looks healthier and actually helps supports bones, joints heading into older age

[RawFitChris]

@TheCrosswind I have no problem with fruit not providing more than enough energy to stimulate muscle and strength gain. In fact I do super intense deadlifts and squats not the typical "health club pump-artist" curls and leg curls and extensions, etc., either/ Are you sure you are detoxed? It takes a long time for you to "set up" your "carbeurtator" to utilize the superior nitro methane fuel we call fruit. I've been raw eleven years. Also, I never work out long, since I work out hard,

[redmeatheart]

looking back at this he's so right, even david wolfe quotes research that says if you eat a diet of 51% or over raw foods, your immune system doesnt treat food as an invader. Also lots of raw vegans say we eat too much protein but you dont see them complaining that they are eating too much vitamins ala carrots as an extremely potent source of vitamin a, chorella or spirilina which has an insane amount of beta carotene in it.

[redmeatheart]

i personally believe the best advice would be eating fresh fruit and vegetables hormone free meats, free range eggs, lots of water 6-8 glasses daily, Exercise daily, getting out in the sun after 2pm and taking a great liquid vitamin, probiotic and omega 3 supplement. I'd say from personal experince eniva vibe 2.0 is the greatest of the liquid vitamins, moxxor is meant to be an unbelievably good omega 3 supplement and primal defence is just about the best probiotic you can take..

[mchertron]

It's all about moderation, balance, and understanding what your body needs and when. My grandparents are Italian american and 90 yrs old. They eat their biggest meal at 3:00 and no later. Later they might have a glass of wine with fruit, but most of the eating has always been before 6pm. It's not about believing in one God, you need to believe in a philosophy and a way of life. my granfather took care of his own garden on the east and west coast.

Love Jordan's comments about forgiveness and positive thinking

[Tynx]

Thanks Paul from this video! Yeah it is the wholeness and balance that gifts our life. xxxBlessings

[matthewlake182]

So not that Paul needs to be defended, I'm on Pauls side in saying that OUTSIDE appearance isn't everything (as a reaction from some of the comments here).. Being big does not make you live longer or mean you're healthier.

[Nakutao]

Paul you really need to make a video about longevity and how God determines how long we live on this earth. I am sick of hearing all these health freaks saying that you can't do this or you can't do that otherwise you wont live to 100 lol. It is so stupid. People are so ignorant and think of themselves so superior it is sick to hear comments like MatthewLake. Sigh!

[matthewlake182]

Yeah, because life is so already pre determined that raw foodists become rawfoodists to become healthier and live longer. Studies consistently show what you eat and how much you eat affects your ultimate lifespan. I'm not interested in anything but the science.

And I have nothing again paul, I just said I think he'll lead a longer and healthier life than the other guy! That was it!

[matthewlake182]

Paul will probably easily outlive the other guy, being big is simply NOT the answer to a long life. Being lean and eating healthy is the key to a longer life. check out my blog sometime on CR (my youtube profile has a link) and I have some good posts on it.

By the way, I do CR but my diet is around 70% RAW . I eat around 1650k/cal - 1750k/cal a day.

[Nakutao]

Actually most of the healthy long lived people eat a well balanced diet of fruit, vegetables, nuts, seeds, animal products, grains, and they are not obsessed about food. Matthew it sounds like you are obsessed with food no offense. I have seen your pictures and to be honest you don't look all that healthy. It is usually people who are calorie freaks and health nuts that don't live a very long life. Most of the people that have done natural hygeine died at an early age with diseases. BOOM! Truth!

[matthewlake182]

not obsessed with food, want to stay alive

[Nakutao]

"Paul will probably easily outlive the other guy, being big is simply NOT the answer to a long life. Being lean and eating healthy is the key to a longer life." What are you God? I guess Buster Martin is just a freak right? Cause he sure isn't lean and skinny like you. LOL! You know what it doesn't matter who outlives who.. When our time comes it comes no matter what you do. Face it!

[matthewlake182]

no, I am facing it, I want to live.... I'm doing something about it

[matthewlake182]

some skinny raw foodists could outlive the bigger ones. Simply because of eating fewer calories. Fewer calories = longer life. I've been doing calorie restriction since i was 18 and now at almost 25 i still look 16 haha :p

[Nakutao]

Fewer calories does not always mean a longer life. That is false! What determines a long life is God! God gives life and takes life. Our days are numbered. Somebody who thinks they can control the amount of life they live on this earth is very foolish. We are able to definately improve the quality of our life. Some people that eat crap and smoke sometimes live longer than people that reduce calories and eat the best foods ever. There is people out there that I can show you.I am no stupid person!

[matthewlake182]

No, calories taken in determines maximum lifespan and this is true for all animals, and probably humans. I think it's foolish to be believe in god, but thats my opinion ;)

Don't call me foolish.

[Nakutao]

I agree 100% with Jordan! This is what I have been trying to say all along in my videos. Raw Vegans have a certain ego about them that somehow makes them believe they are the healthiest people on the planet which is simply untrue. I like the part where you say the guy at the vitamix will blow away! So true.. so true ! :)

[RawFitChris]

So.. Jordan thinks that "the guy at the Viatrmix" will blow away? I have been raw vegan since 199 and vegan since 1985. And your comment about breaking into hives when you ate fruit? It happened to me 30 years ago too... but then I literally cleaned out my system by not eating animal foods... and eventually cooked foods. Now I can eat mostly fruit as my diet and.. guess what? I just build MORE muscle.

[clearviewhigh]

@RawFitChris HELL YEA! Your comment about the fruit made my day. Im tired of feeling like crap. Right now i eat a crap load of fruit, vegetables, and nuts as my diet.. mostly fruits, vegetables and honey right now to clean my system.. But jack asses out their keep saying raw vegans are really weak. Their only peaceful. Meh....

[SecretsOfLongevity]

There may be a few centenarians that have smoked and eaten lot's of meat and gotten away with it... People like to look at these examples to justify their own habits.

However, if you look at large GROUPS in the world where there are the highest concentrations of centenarians, they always eat extremely small amounts of meat (rarely dairy, usually goats milk if any at all, definitely not cow dairy), such as ONCE every week or two and some of these groups ARE vegan (like in Loma Linda California).

[canadianwargod]

Paul Rubin is great! never heard of him before. He looks a lot healthier than paul when you see them sitting together. no offense paul lol.

[RawFitChris]

If Paul worked out properly and wanted to gain some size he could, faster and healthier than if he were cooked. I've been raw ten years, vegan 25, and I know enough now how this works. I never would have believed it...-Chris, The Raw Vegan Myth (crusher)

[origirox]

I agree with you a bit. However, they both seem a little toxic in different ways. Jordan appears to have plumped up with artificial hormones, but is hydrated nicely and Paul is heading to the acid side holding a need for hydration.
