| My personal journey started after I had a severe virus attacking my liver, this was the third time in my life that I had a liver disease and I was really ill, I was extremely tired and weak for a month at least with a very slow recovery after that.
I had hepatitis (I think it was A) at age 7, mononucleosis at age 21 and anonymous hepatitis at age 35. I am almost 40 now and don't want to be sick again when I'm 49... I read a lot about raw food on the internet and tried it myself. I used to eat the SAD (Standard American Diet) even though I was born, grew up and still live in Israel. 4 years ago I switched to a vegan diet and a year and a half ago I started on a raw vegan diet. The best diet for me personally is 811rv, this does not mean it is the right diet for everyone, but you should at least try it before dismissing it as rubbish. It is not a quick fix, it takes a lot of effort, mainly in the social pressure from close friends, family and the society in general. this idea is so alien that everyone will be against it. Think for yourself and research the subject. It can't hurt you to eat healthier, right? An apple a day keeps the doctor away - its just not true! You need to make the apple the main course and eat many apples during the day. Here are some pointers regarding nutrition: nutridiary.com (free journal where you can log what you eat and it calculates the nutritional value of the food) juicefeasting.com

I find it easy to accept that your diet works--especially that it works for you. Just the notion that it works for the reasons outlined, seems outlandish to me. (But I do not have enough information either way.)
