Many raw-foodists experience problems after many years on the diet, such as osteoporosis (low bone density), tooth decay, and deficiencies. How do you explain these failures to thrive on the raw vegan diet?

Thats a great question. Lets look at low bone density. There are a few factors involved. One is an insufficient amount of magnesium in the diet, or an insufficient amount of silica in the diet, or a detoxification process which is too much, too fast, and which leaves one deplete of magnesium, silica, calcium and iron.

Also, theres a hormonal aspect to this. We find that some people, if theyre not getting the proper raw materials, cannot produce the proper hormones. For example, if someone gets too estrogenic, they will start losing bone mass.

So we need to have foods that are testosterone builders or progesterone builders, or that build DHEA. Foods like that are coconut oil, yam, maca, evening primrose oil, the fennel class of foods, and many other specific foods that do that. These foods can give you the proper hormone-building materials. That still may not be enough for some certain people.

If its not, then I recommend going with a unique type of coconut product called pregnenelone (which has already been reacted along the path with the metabolic pathway towards producing progesterone, and/or testosterone). That is a supplement, but its really coming from a food.

  • @ukijhu97 If you haven't already look into reading Dr. doug graham's book 80/10/10 and check out rogerhaeske's site. Also 30bananasaday. I am doing so much better since I've been eating low fat raw. My strength and my workouts have gotten so much better. Before I was just searching for the next best superfood. Now I have alot better results and alot more money lol!

  • @bluesdog88 or even better, steak and potatoes.

    Raw foodism has been self debunked.

    None of these fuckfaces truly follow their shit after 5 years.

  • I disagree with the top Chinese herbal medicine list. Cannabis is not mentioned at all and that's gotta be number 1. Reishi would be next and Astragalus has always been considered higher than Ginseng.

  • Dude has tits

  • What bullshit!!! Eat more fruit

  • @GodAloneExists i agree buy local, local usually means we dont have the $5,000.00 or $10,000.00 to buy the stickers that say organic.

  • ARE PEOPLE STILL BUYING THIS BULLSHIT, HES ONLY SAYING THERE PROBLEMS SO YOU WILL BUY HIS SUPPLEMENT SHIT AS WELL AS HIS BULLSHIT

  • This dude is FLAKY as SHITT!

  • This is serious?

  • He's a tool for big corporations. Right here: 4:22 he's saying fuck small farmers
