That's not true at all.
You can grow your own foods and not process them. Fruits, vegetables, anything that comes from the ground is not processed, as long as no pesticides and stuff were used.
That's what me and my boyfriend plan to do with our house, we plan to have our own farm and grow our own food for health reasons.

You are very misinformed about this and that's unfortunate.

This was very informative, I suggest you actually watch it!

Congratulations on your ability to live off of nothing but home grown fruits and veggies. I like to eat meat, so this is not an option for me.

This is fascinating! I'm very interested in the effects of food on the brain/mental health, so this has given me a lot to think about. Thank you for posting

Gonna watch this later but am very interested in seeing it....
We rarely buy meat. We hunt so we have plenty of venison, wild hog, catfish and some dove in the freezer. Although we are still buying some veggies and other things now our garden this year will be much larger and we'll be able to put back (can and freeze) lots more and buy less. Also just planted lots of fruit trees and berries. Just moved here in September (our land borders a national forest on 2 sides) so trying to get it all set up. Can't wait till everything is producing. Anyway, thanks so much for sharing!

Thank you for posting this. I wonder what I could substitute for the organ meat and the seaweed...

Thank you for sharing! This goes along with the book I'm reading right now "Real Food: What to Eat and Why" Nina Planck...I've been making a lot of changes since lowering the sodium in my diet ...I'm no where near perfect yet, and never expect to be, but every little thing we can do better helps!!

lol I know it's a lot. When I first heard her say that I was thinking 'could I actually eat 9 cups?' It's a nice healthy challenge. However, it can get expensive when you are on a low budget. I can get some veggies and fruits for cheap at the Asian market not to far for me, although I am only recently eating a lot healthier than I have been in the past. I think once I've adjusted to eating better for myself will I then try a challenge like this. I don't want to strain my body into super healthy mode.

Fresh meats, vegetables and fruits eaten raw are not processed in the sense they are talking about in the video.

I am adopting eating raw meat now along with raw vegetables and fruit, I am liking how I feel so far!!

I personally have sensitive taste buds. So anything with bottom feeders like catfish or fungus like mushrooms makes my stomach upset and feel I need to puke for a bit. So something like organs that are used to process the bad out is also the same for me.
I do love Nori, dried seaweed. So that for me is not too much of a problem. I do make my own sushi, cheaper and better for you.

I eat meat and it is not processed. Mearly skinned and cut into appropriate cuts. I am starting to enjoy it raw too, ruminant animals that have been grass fed that it.

I eat no boxed, packaged, frozen foods any longer, so no I don't eat processed foods.

Organ meat and seaweed are good and very good for you.

Searing a sliced liver just a bit on each side is AWESOME. So is beef tongue...........

Local farmer's markets are wonderful places to get lots of good veggies and fruit for reasonable prices. I can go once a week and get veggies to do about 2 plates full of veggies per person per day for around $45 to feed 3 people. So that is about $15 per week. I go and buy what they have and go home and look up recipes to cook what I purchased. At this point, I don't have to look up much, just pull out my big binder of healthy cooking recipes and lay out 5-6 for the week. We usually do one night a week as "left over night".

Kidneys are delicious too, either in a stew with casserole steak, or fried (traditionally in a spiced cream sauce...traditional British food uses a lot of organ meat).

I was brought up eating this sort of thing, and I really like it. Learning to cook it well is key, though.

that was great!
