I have been vegetarian for 5-6 years and during that time tried vegan and raw, did all the research, learned as much as I could but could never stick with it. At the beginning of this year I was eating SAD vegetarian (lots of cheese, pasta, and vegetarian junk food). I was weighing in at 175lbs (the most I ever weighed)…

Here's a nice chart breakdown. If you are eating anything in the top category just make sure you pair it with an iron enhancer such as tomatoes, bell peppers, broccoli, brussel sprouts, Orange, Orange Juice, cantaloupe, strawberries, grapefruit.

The 80/10/10 diet is by Dr. Doug Graham and is a form of raw vegan which focuses on fruit with some veggies, nuts & seeds. Just a low fat version of raw vegan and the actual diet our bodies are made for. The 80/10/10 stands for the ratio of carbs/fat/protien - for energy & mental health.

Baby spinach doesn't have oxalic acid which is the iron inhibitor but even if you can just eat it with tomatoes or bell peppers which are iron enhancers and still be fine. You really don't need as much of the vitamin & minerals as stated by all the RDA junk. The reason all of this is so inflated is because people are…

Hemp protein powder is usually just hemp seeds ground up. You can get hemp seeds for much cheaper (2.99/lb) than buying the powder ($20/lb) and grind it yourself in a coffee grinder or mill in a soymilk machine. This will also keep more of the nutrients in. Or you can just throw them in whole. I will put the seeds on salad…

This time around I did it the way we are supposed to eat - the food naturally correct for our bodies and I lost 30lbs in only 2…
