I've been exposed to all the raw food propaganda already. I've never met an intelligent person who took it seriously. Most of the medical community considers the raw food diet too harsh and restrictive. The author of that article makes numerous unsubstantiated claims about people who eat raw food. He commits several fallacies which I don't have time to go over. But the bottom line is: It's bullshit.

Science can never PROVE an idea? Ok than I guess your still not sure that you are made of atoms, and are not sure that your thoughts come from your heat and not your brain.

He mentions that all other animals eat raw food. And yet, all animals get sick. Care to explain that?

don't lambast raw food.
look at the alternatives!
raw food vs preservatives? raw food vs trans fat? raw food vs acids and strange chemistry experiments pre-packaged as food?
raw food is good for you. Do you guys seriously not think so? Fastfood is also bad for you.
You shouldn't take anything too extreme, trust your body and treat it with lots of organic fresh food, etc. But I don't understand the objections.
apple vs popeyes chicken?

animals have trouble these days because the environment is dying. sea turtles live 100 years and never see a doctor. dogs and cats get sick, but that is because of what we feed them i suppose. and how do you know animals get sick?
people used to live alot longer. in india they believe everyone used to be immortal and things get worse and worse and will until we live for only 30 years. then they will start getting better
and there are lots of theories on atoms and thought. they are always coming up with smaller and smaller "atoms" like neutrinos. you dont know where thoughts come from
there is no way to know except try it. but then it might be a placebo. but then you feel good, so what if its just placebo?

it's honestly a good idea.
i became vegetarian a while ago; I still eat a lot of junk food though.
And a lot of cooked food, too.
What I wonder about is this... you try to get away from all the chemicals and additvies, right? But there is fluoride and God knows what else in the drinking water, and in the bottled water. There is fluoride in the toothpaste (though I guess that makes more sense!!!).
The air isn't exactly that refreshing because of all the cars.
I dunno, so many things need to change. America/cans seem to not care about their health at all, and in fact are proud of their early graves. Til they reach them anyway.
It's a crazy mess of a society to find yourself in, but at least there are plenty of healthy food movements.

i think the important thing is to do what makes you feel good. for some that means getting sick and "succeeding" despite difficulty. you are right leery. it seems people create barriers sometimes for themselves on purpose i never thought of that.
after i eat chocolate i feel bad for like 3-6 hours. when i fast i can meditate easier

have you thought of a water distiller? they are 100 dollars for a stainless steel, i am wary of the plastic ones. the best water is from a clean stream though as distilled water doesnt have good bacteria and minerals. i'm not even sure if it gets rid of fluoride though. some parts of water might evaporate and get into the cleaned water.

I think raw foods are a good idea myself. I'm not willing to eat completely raw though. I think a 50/50 raw/cooked diet is pretty healthy myself. When I do steam veggies I like to do it lightly so they are still crunchy. Meat is usually rare if it's red meat. I don't think there is a 100% perfect diet but I do think most people would benefit from lots more raw foods in their diets.

I'm not. I'm lambasting the pseudoscientists who make ridiculous claims about what a raw food diet can do(such as making you impervious to illness). I think raw food can be a part of a healthy, balanced diet. I eat raw apples and grapes all the time. But to say that raw foods can be good for you is quite different than saying that cutting out cooked food is good for you.

well it is good in detoxing the body is it not.... going on a raw fruit fast for a while, for example (or diet should I say?)
i know it's helped my chi a lot. cooking food does dramatically decrease the amount of nutrients it has in it, from what i recall hearing.

True. its good to know it works, and the boost in nutrients you wouldnt get from processed foods would help your health... but filtering your water (unless it tastes bad) is a bad idea... if you protect yourself off too much from the outside world, you and your body will stop building immunities to these everyday things making you weaker over time. =/
