Medical Forum / General / Alternative / September 20051 food at a meal: anybody tried it?
As a 100% raw foodist for about 4 years I'm always looking to improve. I just started mono eating. It involves eating only one food at a meal. One food being a natural, unprocessed, raw food as in a fruit or vegetable, nuts, seeds or sprouts. I've noticed several very positive reactions in my body. I was wondering about the experiences of others. > As a 100% raw foodist for about 4 years I'm always looking to improve. I just started mono eating. > It involves eating only one food at a meal.

No. Though I will get my doctor to check for deficiencies on my checkup. I realize it can be a problem. Are there no non-animal sources of B12? Any sea vegetables, any sprouts? If there isn't, it makes the vegan choice look somewhat flawed. >> > As a 100% raw foodist for about 4 years I'm always looking to improve. I >> > just started mono eating.

Supplements are just fine for B12; the stuff is made by bacteria, so vegans can retain their moral superiority. -- David Wright :: alphabeta at prodigy.net These are my opinions only, but they're almost always correct.

Unless they can't absorb it maybe? Apparently my local hospital no longer does the part of the Schilling test where intrinsic factor is administered cause they can't get the stuff anymore.

Sorry, I wasn't considering people with absorption problems, just your average citizen. -- David Wright :: alphabeta at prodigy.net These are my opinions only, but they're almost always correct.
