Holy wow, Vixy. Your results are really incredible. I started having some results with PM, but ended up with crazy hormonal acne again, so I give up on herbs. I'm going to try to dedicate myself to massage, and I ordered some pumps for myself after seeing your results. Although I don't/can't follow Rt4/30BaD, there are a lot of things they promote in terms of lifestyle that are right on (like early nights), and you've inspired me to get back on track with those things.

I just watched some banana girl YouTube clips.
I'm a bit torn on it being a diabetic nightmare or a cure all...
it inspired me though I will admit, I even got off my butt and went for an early morning walk. I love her lifestyle, beautiful surroundings, access to a great range of organics. I only wish we had such access to orgNics Over here.

BEFORE I got all consumed with going organic and health supplements I was REALLY healthy!
I ate a huge abundance of conventional grown fruit and veggies and as a result had access to every raw food I desired. I never got sick on this diet for 2 years.

Then I went organic and only had access to half the food I was used to as organic isn't as accessible and I started getting sick, catching every heinous bug going around.

I always wonder is the risk of pesticide exposure but more access to raw good BETTER than going strict organic but not having access to a huge range of raw food?..


Either way Vixy it's worked for you. Your results are inspiring!

That's interesting you noticed that after going organic. It's true that you become much more restricted, and that has been a struggle for me too. The more I look into it, the more it sounds that although organic is great, non organic isn't going to kill you and it still contains lots of vitamins and nutrients. I'm trying to let myself eat both. Getting obsessed with vitamins and supplements and trying to be uber healthy didn't really do a great amount of good for me either.

But as for the Freelee thing - I did it and it didn't work out for me. My blood sugar was crazy, I was absolutely miserable, and yet I pressed on for months, waiting for it to get better. It didn't, and it's taken a few years now to figure out how to balance my blood sugar again. I want to go back to eating raw (mostly raw), but I can't do the high amounts of fruits and calories that they prescribe. I think it's key to match the amount of fruits you eat with vegetables and dark greens, and not deprive yourself of whole food fats when you feel you need them. And, not obsess over the calories. Keep ramping up until you find a range that fits you, and let it change according to what your body needs at any given time. Your body knows itself better than any "guru." Plus, it's never the food or supplements that cure anyone. The body cures itself! Depending on how you treat it and feed it, you'll find the right way and your body will be in the right environment to do the healing.

You hit the nail on the head there!
Maybe stop obsessing about 100% organic but do 50/50.
We know what the dirty dozen of pesticide laden food so maybe buy conventional for the rest..
But yeh it was an eye opener for me too. That's not to say long term use of non organic won't cause a build up of toxic shit in out system?.. But that leads me to researching " how to detox from herbacides and pesticides".. Implement that and then the vegan diet could work for us
