Any Raw vegans?

Hey! I haven't used this app in ages. That being said, I completely forgot there was a forum haha. Anyone here a raw vegan? I recently started eating more plant based foods for fitness reasons though I've been "just vegan" for quite a long time. Any tips ?
Cheers ! <3

    I'm definitely not vegan, or vegetarian lol. But I do stick to all raw organic food. All of the meat I eat is local grass-fed. I choose only full fat local dairy (though I rarely eat much dairy). I thankfully live in a county that makes this very easy and affordable.

    My BF has been vegan on occasions, he likes the podcast No Meat Athlete. You should check it out. Best of luck!!

    So you eat only raw (uncooked) meat and veg and eggs? Why?

    I also like this podcast. It's vegan, not raw.

    I tried it and found it unsustainable and had the runs constantly!

    But, I invented the best raw vegan Thai green curry, using courgette spaghetti for the noodles and then blending mango pulp with the usual green curry spices to make the sauce and I'm not going to lie, it was the best meal ever!

    So an update- I find that being a raw vegan only works for me in the summer ! Now that I'm back in college I can't eat as often nor take perishables. Definitely eating as many fruits and veggies as I can though. Whole foods are amazing for weight loss :)

    Raw vegan here! And a student as well. Being raw in college is a bit of a challenge in my country bu definitely not an impossible thing. Try sticking to mono meals or prepare food in advance :) stay healthy :)
  • Yes I'm a raw vegan too!
