Okey, whenever I go into something about health the first thing I do is observer and look at the person whos giving me this info, cause the point of eating right is to be healthy and look YOUNG. I find it very hard to take anyone serious if they don't meet these characteristics.

[EatTheWeeds]

There are two things usually missing from such exchanges. One is that we have been cooking food for some 250,000 years, perhaps a million. We might have evolved to cooked food in that time (or if a Creationist, we were made eating cooked food.) Also, the food discussed is always modern, cultivated vegetables and meats rather than what was around 10,000 or 100,000 years ago. Another element is the limited digestive system of children and whether, or how, they can extract nutriton from raw food.

oh and i like the 2 last people on the q-a part and susun saying we are not meant to think about eating.

[OddButNormal]

i eat cooked and 'raw', a little more 'raw' though. it works for me. everyone is different. listen to your body and you will find what is good for you.

[puffyclouddd1]

I agree with both

@chamokc Susun looks more healthy than Brigitte. She's a post menopausal woman, post menopausal women are supposed to have a little extra weight and look the way she does. Brigitte looks super gaunt, I've noticed that from most Raw Food people, they look a little 'plastic surgery'.

and there is nothing wrong with having a young soul, just as soon as you can realize you have one you start to grow an old one!! ahahaha!

[moonskyheron]

ancient ayurveda and traditional chinese medicine doctors certainly would agree with susun. The quest for immortality through diet exposes a very juvenile soul.

[moonskyheron]

reveals having a very CLOSED brain despite the raw quality of it. I will always honor both sides of any argument for sake of BROADENING my perspective and I have been a raw foodist, a junk foodist, and a traditional diet as well as a paleolithic one. I love her closing statement HUMAN WERE NOT MADE TO THINK ABOUT WHAT THEY EAT! that is beautiful!

[moonskyheron]

these responses are hysterical. eat what you want, think for yourself. judge no one for what they eat. a vegetarian doesn't like to be ridiculed by carnivores so a traditional eater much less enjoys being ridiculed by raw foodists. Susun Weed is doing something no one else is, which is QUESTIONING this new raw food fad. But you raw foodiest who judge and nitpick her for being ONE traditional arguer as opposed to the 4000 raw foodists making money off of selling raw food diets and superfoods
