Hey Guys! In case you missed PART 1 with Eli: bit.ly/3tfI9su Subscribe to Eli: bit.ly/3vmyh31 How to Eat Raw Vegan on a Budget/$50 week: bit.ly/3M5nHTT 💜💜💜😀😀😀👍👍👍
I’m on 17th day of raw vegan diet and it’s just amazing. I’m already a different person. I know its just a beginning but I really feel good. I love fruits, it’s 80-90% of my diet ❤️
Yeah but you can't just eat fruit it has too much sugar, this guy is wrong, there's lots of people that are prone to diabetes and they can't eat any fruit anymore.
@@counterstrike89 He's been doing this for years and is in better shape than me or you. What he has achieved is a testament to the lifestyle. If sugars are making people sick, maybe it's not the sugar alone that is but a combination of factors such as damaged organs or other foods in the body preventing the sugar from being absorbed.
@@Charlie-eq3dj If you just eat fruit, how many grams of sugar is that, seriously, think about that, I know its a bit different than white flower or table sugar because of the fiber and different nutrients so it absorbs differently, but..........still how many grams are we talking he eats in a day of fructose and glucose from the fruit, because its going to be off the charts. I try to eat more berries as they have less sugar in them then say things like melons or peaches etc.
The most rational dietician I've ever heard in my life. I've came to the same thoughts about food we need. I am 54 and I've tried a lot of diets and fasting regimes in my life so I know what I say.
So true. Toxic hunger explains so much about the addiction to those unhealthy processed foods. Fruit is such a natural way to nourish our bodies. Thank you for sharing how the toxic food addiction can be helped by eating fruits.
Omg you two together made me so happy! You are an amazing interviewer! I know you get great people but the power of your presence, active listening, and excellent questions brings so much. And I can tell you put a lot of work into getting to know the people you interview. And Eli, omg the charisma that man has! His videos have taught me so much and I really love his way of connecting everything with spiritual laws. He also makes the transition feel realistic even if long term fruitarian doesn't work for you, it can be a good starting place to move to raw vegan bc fruit is cheap and easy. Thanks so much Eli!
6 days in to an nearly raw and most fruit lifestyle and I am feeling so ALIVE! Waking up in the morning before the sun , I don’t have to blow my nose out from all the mucus, And I am looking like a vital male should , vascular and clear skin . Excited to see what the future holds !!
Wonderful insights and information, thank you so much. Eli looks like a Buddhist Shaolin monk, very striking. All raw vegans have such flawless, glowing skin. It's fascinating how everything Eli is saying resonates exactly with what I have experienced. Fred Bisci is still running at 92, he has not deteriorated whatsoever folks. Fred eats a lot of fruit and one salad a day. No deterioration.
Fred is awesome! Ric lambart is 93 and his will be posted soon you should see him at 93!! as a 47 year raw vegan.....Eli will be back on asap as well showing us what he eats and a viewer Q&A
@@GillianBerryBerry Bless you, Gillian, finding your site was like striking gold, I really appreciate your passion for this living food lifestyle and your excellent and intelligent interviewing technique, a rare gift indeed. Thank you also for this info and the link to Ric Lambert. Am delighted with the veritable treasure trove of knowledge pouring in on the raw living food lifestyle. Wonderful! Bravo! Heartfelt thanks.
Great interview. Our original diet according to the Bible is FRUIT. All Eli's answers make sense. Thus, the whole thing is just a common sense. Well done!
Thank you so much, Gillian and Eli!! This was such a great follow-up interview!! Thank you for devoting so much of your time to educating the masses on true health and vitality!! Looking forward to more collaborations and content along these lines!! Gillian, you have such a beautiful home and decor!! Thank you, Eli, as always, for everything you do!! Much love to you both!! 💗
Great interview!!! And I love how open and authentic you both are 😊👌 I would like to add something to the bloodwork/supplement discussion because I read some books from scientist and doctors about it who said that bloodwork is not a safe way to find out if one is deficient or not. Because you don’t want the nutrients hanging around in the bloodstream, they need to be absorbed by the organs. So if you have a high level of something in the blood it could also mean the organs aren’t absorbing it. If you have a low level it does not mean one is deficient it could mean the organs are absorbing the nutrients well. We would have to take samples of the actual organs to know if they are lacking anything or look specifically into the cells of a body to see if that cell is deficient. And even then: can we really trust that science that says we need this and that amount when in fact there is a huge industry behind supplements that gains money from it? Even if there are a lot of very conscious businesses out there that mean well…. If we have all been deceived from the earliest of times who will know what’s wrong or true anymore? I do supplement with zinc and B12 now and then and sometimes iodine because I am also confused and scared to make something wrong by keeping it out. But I learn more and more that this whole topic might be completely different then we all have learned and understood so far.🤔
wow this is so interesting!! I have never thought of it this way but it would make sense !! iodine is important but you can have too much and can have too little same with selenium !! I take an all in one supplement has about 6 things for vegans and I'm so happy with it. If you want the link and my coupon code just let me know. happy weekend !! ❤️❤️❤️
I can vouch for Eli. He used to be a real shit when he used to eat a standard western diet...he would flick the ears of old aged pensioners, pull the chair away from pregnant women just before they were sitting down and they would fall to the floor, he would quietly put blindfolds on guide dogs for blind people without them knowing etc etc!!! Now he eats fruit he is a genuine angel and really a lovely man. Thanks to you both for another great video, love to you both 💚🌞🙏
Several years ago I got really sick and doctors didn’t know what was wrong and pretty much refused to help me after a while. I went raw vegan for 4 months. I cured myself but in the process lost so much weight my dad was convinced I was on drugs. I didn’t give up tho becuz I could feel that it was working. Eventually I hit a tipping point and began to gain my weight back until it naturally stopped at my own unique ideal weight. My mind was sooo clear, I had so much energy and my skin and hair was practically glowing. I eventually went back to my standard diet and I now feel like shit 😭😭 I’m crawling my way back to good health again but this time I’ll never go back.
wow that's amazing you had that experience with it!!! was the same as me!! yeah you will find your way back for good!!! have an amazing weekend claire!!!
As to your weight loss and then gaining it back. That’s awesome to hear because I always tell people that want to go raw / plant based etc. Don’t worry, you will gain the weight back. Your body is just getting rid of all the excess harmful weight
Wow, I need to show this to my brother. 300lbs, in and out of hospitals, the last time 16 days, they discharged him so he could go home and spend his days fighting for his next breath. They, too, told him they can't do anything else for him (or in my mind, TO him). Don't know if he'll hear it, he worships "science," is vaxxed to the max, so to be honest I don't know if his body can respond to anything at this point. If he is willing and DOES want to do something different what do you think would be a good starting point without shocking his system and his ego-driven "no" response?
@@mike.d999 just to be clear, once I felt like my body was cured I went to a cooked foods vegetarian diet. That’s how I gained the weight back. Had I stayed raw vegan I could’ve died. I feel it’s meant as a medicinal thing, not a life long thing.
I feel hungry a lot of the time when I drink smoothies and eat dried fruit (essentially a kind of 'refined' carbohydrate...) I am fairly sure this is to do with insulin resistance (which does run in my family). When I eat my fruit whole and fresh my experience couldn't be more different, then I relate to hunger in the way that Eli describes, it's just not an issue...so liberating. So many people seem to experience this problem on a raw diet and often return to cooked food because of it...the advice is always just to eat more but I tried this for years (bigger smoothies, more dates) and just felt hungrier than ever. I think there must be others out there like me who simply need to cut out the juice, blended and dried fruit... loving the interview! 🙏
these are REALLY REALLY great and key points you have made here!! I think this is why early on when I transitioned I did not deal at all with that hunger people refer to because I was not blending anything....it was all food in the form it comes in!! Makes a difference and is more natural at the end of the day! Glad you discovered this and didn't just give up on health:)))) take care Tammie!!!!!
There is only 5-7% by calories of protein in mother's milk, that's the time we need to grow the most. That's a good indicator of how much protein we need.. So yeah, fruitarian do get enough protien. We need to increase our absorption capacities be physically active which is very low in toxic acidic bodies cos of eating all the junk. And hence when we only eat fruit in the beginning work out are difficult. If we are clean like Eli, then hey yo, fruit is the way to go! Thank you for bringing up all these amazing questions Gillian, really loved the video! Just finished watching it on the way to the town for Sunday fruit shopping. ! Much much love to both of you beautiful beings in Canada from India ♡♡
What an awesome interview, I loved it! You and Eli embody this lifestyle so perfectly in all ways. Inspiring, beautiful people..thank you for sharing your light!! ❤️
What a beautiful setting you provide for these interviews. Another nice interview with Eli. Poor guy can not take a compliment. Too bad because that is a testament to his lifestyle. But that's okay; he may come around and learn to accept them gracefully. After all, the alternative to a nice compliment would be much worse. Anyhow - I think two other people that could answer a lot of those questions would be Cyrus Khambatta and Robby Bararo. Robby has been Fruitarian, or Frugivore for some time now, and he's a Type 1 Diabetic. He always provides such great insight to the Fruitarian lifestyle. Loved your outfit - you looked beautiful.
haha, my two favourite influencers and wayshowers on my most recent experiment of raw life hang out ... but i am left with sooo many questions now. Why does he look at the camera and not at her when talking? (teaching versus conversation) Why are those two not married - so he can become Eli Berry the fruitarian? Why does he have a flipphone? Where can I get a flipphone? Loved this, thanks so much 😍🥳
The two relevant things: 1) he is well tanned, 2) he is highly physically active. This is the trend of all healthy-looking fruitarians, especially those that are exclusively fruit. The less active the more vegetables needed. Sun is essential for the nutrients sun provides, especially those involved in sugar metabolism.
I feel amazing when I eat fruits only. It’s like next level. You have to be vegetarian and then transition to vegan first in order to reach the fruitarian or raw fruit diet. It’s very spiritual and Eli explains it best. Everyone has to try it for themselves at least for a few days to see the true power of what fruits can do. Heal.
For the dutch people watching this: money is no excuse. Went to the market today and bought: 12 kilo's oranges for 10 euro, 5 kilo bananas for 5 euro, 4 kilo grapes for 6 euro that is 21 euro for my food for a whole week. Eating approximatily 1800 cal a day. No not organic. That is why I rinse my food with salt water to remove most pesticides. Still good and healthy in comparison with excellent organic fruit en wayyyy healthier than junkfood or processed food. Eating plantbased is very cheap. Potatoes, rice,beans are all very cheap when you buy them in bulk. I truly don't understand why dutch people keep saying that eating healthy is expensive. It's not. It's not. It's not.Not in our country.
Great!!! It's a very common thing regardless of where one lives to think it can be expensive! But I feel when there is a will there is a way and there are definitely ways all over or in most places to do it on a budget! Take care Adriana!
Good talk! A conversation between you, Eli and Markus from "Thehealthylife" would be very interesting! And in addition to this, put Dr. Morse in the field as well.
I am transitioning to fruitarian after 26 years vegan right now. : )) Have thought about it many times, but now the time is right and I am ready in many ways. Eli reminds me a lot of me and we share very similar ways of describing life and being optimal in many ways, not just diet. Excited to share my story more once I have the transition behind me. Thanks for this wonderful interview, the best one with a fruitrarian that I have seen to date . . . and I've been watching a lot! (and I know Ted Carr personally, hehe, another fine examplar)
Another great interview as usual! I admire you both a lot. A lot of what Eli says makes sense. I feel at my best when I do mono meals and keep things simple. Would love to see an interview with Don Bennet or Anne Osborne btw… thanks for what you are doing Gillian!! You are amazing 🤩 💓
hey Omaira!! Anne will be on in March!! I emailed her last week and she agreed and wants to be on!! Don Bennet will have to look into!!! Happy you're enjoying the channel!!!!
@19:42 - Gillian you say something really important. "Belief is important". I think that when we become fully fruitarian, it is only sustainable under certain conditions. Firstly the level of cleanliness already achieved - which is why for most people a transition makes more sense. (for myself i went fully raw a few times and ping-ponged back and forth and had binges, before finally managing to settle - many would give up during this period). This is because you crave what you're made of, and if you're body has a lot of toxic crap inside, especially as it begins to detox and we 're-experience' those toxins, it can be hard not to buckle. I'm finally completely raw, mostly fruit, finally. I just stuck with it. Secondly -- for those who do a lot of 'ping-pong' and food-binges, you need to address a few spiritual/mental issues. If you know it's going to be hard at first, yet you buckle anyway - then you must accept that cooked food is doing a lot to suppress certain feelings/experiences (whether important life events or day to day things we try not to face) and that in the modern world the average human is riddled with addictions. If you remove the bad foods, but don't address the parts of your personality that are not fulfilled/not aligned with your true self... you always fail, and fall back into a way of eating that incorporates either a) stimulating chemistry or b) suppressive chemistry/substances .. or both. So - simplified - when removing bad habits, good habits (and even good relationships with certain aspects of our lives or certain hobbies) need to be introduced or strengthened. If you are not fulfilled spiritually and have not developed the strength to address the aspects of your life you are neglecting, you will always crave something chemical to draw you back from the challenge of facing those aspects. Conversely.. if you go fully raw, but don't address these aspects, and yet somehow stay raw --- I believe you can experience the 'deterioration' some people worry about. Because you are not feeding the soul. Your entire being feels malnourished. And the body responds.
As a vegan of 12 years (and now fruitarian), I have a wonderful relationship with a man who consumes an omnivorous diet. Neither one of us try to push our beliefs upon each other when it comes to nutrition. We do discuss the differences in our diets, however the conversation is always coming from a place of curiosity rather than judgment. We go out to eat together and also sit and have dinner together. My interest in a fruit-based diet has encouraged him to eat more fruit each day, which he says makes him feel amazing. He is healthy, and so I am! Even though we are consuming foods at opposite ends of the spectrum, we have found what works for each of us. I'd never push him to give up his typical diet. He's an adult and it's his choice. Furthermore, he feels good eating the way he does, and it's not my place to change that. We were influenced by different people in the health space to pursue the ways of eating that we have. I think one important thing is that we both eat whole foods. Although he does eat animal products, he does not have processed foods or junk foods. This is very important to me, as I don't think I could be in a relationship with a person who consumes TV dinners, pastries, and fast foods on the regular. Most foods in supermarkets are not foods at all, and I really appreciate that we are both mindful of what we are putting into our systems. I have met vegans that consume junk foods, and to me it looks no different than the Standard American Diet. Living in a house with junk foods in the pantry would not be appealing to me. The meat in the refrigerator is actually a lot less shocking to me than the artificial foods that most people stock their homes with. My partner is an absolute perfect match for me energetically. He understands me very well on an emotional, physical, and spiritual level. He supports me in every facet of our life together and completes me. We have so many things in common, however diet is not one of them, except for our whole foods lifestyle. I'd never trade my relationship for a vegan man, even if he was good-looking, nice to me, and a multi-millionaire. I dated only vegan men prior to this relationship and used to have pretty fixed opinions about dating as a vegan. All of that changed when I met the right person. I believe it's important to remain open to meeting the right energetic match - someone who sees you, gets you, and who is actually eager to express nurturing or leadership in your life. Just because someone is vegan, does not mean they are a good fit for your values (surprising, but true), your goals in the relationship, or anything else, for that matter.
Tried fruitarian for several weeks. It's not for me. Not enough fats, not enough nutrients, and too damn hungry and miserable all the time. I'm happy being high-raw vegan. Also, I'm not sure humans are frugivores. Chimpanzees eat fruits and leaves, but occasionally kill and eat small monkeys and pigs, per the Jane Goodall website (95% vegan, 5% animal products). I'm not advocating meat eating. I think the chimps are just searching for missing nutrients and protein, and we can do this through supplementation (Dr. Gregor said something similar). Anyway, great interview. It's great to watch everyone on this journey as we struggle to find the perfect human diet, and I think we're getting close. Thanks.
that's awesome Jeremy - I am happy you have found what's working for you right now!! It is good you tried fruitarian and know now!! I have never tried to see how I would react. I have done mono fruit cleanses which I love!!! But I love a big variety too much for my regular raw vegan diet to convert to fruitarian! But may try it for a month sometime for fun to see how I feel! And it's def working for Eli!! Glad you liked the interview! Have a great weekend Jeremy!
Hey !! Yes people keep asking ! I need to figure out how to do this ! It's on my list !! Been filming so much plus have my kids ,))) It has automatic chapters so isn't that time stamping ? Or do you mean in the description add times with questions ? I will figure it out !!! thanks for your patience doing the most I can each day 💙💙💙✨✨✨✨
I am currently doing the raw til 4 now and it’s all fruit until 4 then High carbs mostly potatoes at night. I feel great so far but no weight loss at all, I finished a 45 day juice fast about 2 weeks which I loved and did fantastic! Only Gained 2 lbs back and have been maintaining that since doing the raw til 4.
How much weight did you lose during the juice fast? I'm on day 3 of a 40 day fruit and veggie juice fast, and I don't mind admitting "40" sounds like years from now! Any tips on how to stay diligent and focused?
What a great interview. And Eli has it down. And this is why so many vegans and raw vegans fail. You cant thrive not focusing on fruit. Many vegetables are hard to digest for a reason. And correct we are not true herbivores with 4 stomachs etc.
Regarding the creatine question, I googled creatine in fruit, found a list, and it looks like all fruits contain some creatine. So, as Eli said, if you eat enough calories, you can't not get the amino acids you need. It's the marketing of the meat industry that convinces people that they have to get creatine from meat.
I highly recommend you brush more than 1x/day. Bacteria grows logarithmically and build biofilms that needs to be broken down mechanically like brushing. Not brushing breaking down that biofilm and not flossing is linked/associated to many systemic diseases including cardiovascular issues, certain cancers, alzheimers, infertility and the list goes on.. Let alone not to mention the direct links of not brushing 2x/day and flossing 1x/day with periodontal disease (which can cause tooth loss) and cavities.. etc.. I love your passion about being a fruitarian and healthy and I just want to educate you on something important for your health as you obviously care about your health.
I think oil pulling is great for dental care as well and killing bacteria !! I used to do it every morning followed by brushing snd my teeth felt better than ever !!!!
@@GillianBerry many oils are antibacterial and a great accompaniment to brushing! Bacteria biofilms unfortunately do not break down on their own with just oil pulling so I am glad you do both! I support both!
I’m binge watching all your interviews. Thanks so much! I wish you could touch on the topics of manifestation and law of attraction more. It’s one of my biggest motivator. Lol 😂
He’s the only one I’ve seen that is making this look appealing.. 🤔 I would never thought eating fruit only could work but he looks so healthy and happy.
@@GillianBerry Yes I’m sure. I’m 50, mum of 3, eating the usual western diet, slightly overweight, usually tired (self dx chronic fatigue), poor digestion.. I need to make some changes as I don’t want to spend the rest of my life feeling like this.
Do you happen to believe in God or The Bible? One of the questions you asked made me wonder if you did. 🙂 You asked; don’t you think that God also intended for us to eat both greens and fruits; I kind of paraphrased what you said. I believe that the first meat that God provided for man was greens and fruits.
I definitely believe in God ,) I haven't read the bible in full I do believe in God and the after life most definitely,) I follow a lot of Joel Osteen & conversations with god by neale donald walsch is my fav book
He is so cute..I don't get hungry either..I discovered that once the cells are nutrilized they are satiated and happy and keep you full and satisfied for hours..I can go for long periods of time without food..I love it..same when I fast..I feel truly amazing..I love this lifestyle..detoxification..electric foods is EVERYTHING!!!🍇🍌🍋🍉🍎🍐🍏🍍🥝
Fantastic interview. You and Eli are the raw vegans I am subscribed to that I look forward to watching new uploads from! Are you possibly recording with a camcorder? Looks like a Sony or Panasonic.
glad you liked it!!! I don't know how to film and edit my own videos I have someone who I hire to do that he says it's a dslr camera........maybe one day I will be more tech saavy with that stuff....but so far hasn't happened only causes me stress and headaches lol did you think it filmed ok?
@@GillianBerry Yes your videos are excellently captured. I should note that I've heard you mention Markus Rothkranz a couple of times in several of your videos and he has a channel dedicated to videography and photography, and one of the highlights of that channel is he advocates for using camcorders to film videos which are very simple to use in being a press play and record experience. I think you would benefit from acquiring a camcorder which could help you create some independence for producing your content. Here's one of his videos that he made recently that easily demonstrates the ease of using a camcorder. I hope you find it interesting. ua-cam.com/video/KmZH3rGjjlQ/v-deo.html
@@GillianBerry He inspired me to buy camcorders and it's a huge improvement over recording with a smartphone. He's got two other videos on camcorders that I believe are worth watching if you have gained some interest so far. ua-cam.com/video/7qZPBGfQ3hQ/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/7gFF1vYFekY/v-deo.html
Great to see Eli on your channel again! Off topic question though, were they yellow dragonfruit in the bowl? I would love to try those! We only get the regular white and red ones in Australia.
Dr Valter Longo , he’s considered the leading scientist in health and longevity in the world , along with Dr David Sinclair (phd) whose on the cutting edge of increasing healthy life span, both see and write about how the only diet they see that leads to health and longer health span are plant based , higher carb (not lower carb) from plants, and lower in protein diets. I was just reading in dr longo’s book about protein, not just from animals but all protein. According his research “adequate” amount is .31 to .36 grams per pound of body weight, & eating higher than that as a practice isn’t good for longevity and health . Even on days I only eat fruits I hit my adequate amount!
What I want to know folks! 😎😋is.. if COOKED VEGAN FOODS really do deplete nutrients in light of how much we have destroyed the soil with run off and lack of rotating soils - pollution in the air, chemicals spray; etc, etc. FRUIT NUTS & SEEDS ROCK! I'm making the beautiful journey transitioning from cooked foods. I'm on my goal to achieve it by 2023. Gillian - you are such a breath of fresh air; especially over the BS of Freelee as well as Fully Raw Kristina.
tha,nks for the great interview Gillian . Gorilla are not frugivores, they are mostly herbivores with some fruits , and also roots , flowers, grains , barks and some insects . Orang outang are mostly frugivore but eat also some leaves, insects and clay and tree barks
that's awesome!!! I do sometimes munch on it too after farmers markets with cherry tomatoes!!! congrats on 10 YEARS RAW VEGAN!!!!!! WOW !!! that is so awesome!!!!!!!!
Im this same. Ive tried fruit based days and every time I endedup CRAVING the greens very quickly. I dont have a sweet tooth at all in other ways. Never liked dessert I love bitter components in foods. 80% raw (and at times 100%) for over 10 years. I know fruit is sooo good for you but I cant bring myself to make it a majpr part of my diet. : /
Lettuce is different from other leafy greens. Besides being high in fiber and water which might cure "cravings" it can be mildly sweet too which makes it much easier to eat it alone. It also has some "drug" qualities to it, possibly relaxing someone who eats it.
Hi, and really nice video ! Thank you ! Can you please tell us if Eli consumes any type of caffeine in any form ? Like coffee, cacao, black tea, etc Thanks again 🙏
Hey twin soul! Hmm.. so typically i regard each fruit type as a meal i. Its own yeah? So there is gonna be that bit of variability day to day.. last week was nothing but clementines and lemon water.. but aside from that, i think im enjoying around 2-3 types of fruit during a day, and whichever types of fruit they are, each one is a meal. So let s say,.. start of with a honeydew melon as. A meal, then a bit later a bunch of black plums. Followed later on (some hours later) by a meal of mangoes. If i dont feel like eating multiple times a day that day, then maybe it s only 2 types of fruit that day in smaller window. (Or not. Maybe i still do have 3-4 types of fruit in one Mega-meal window.. it all depends how i feel).. or just pizza all day, but whatever. Lol. Kiddiiiing kidding.
Oh speaking of fruit fear. Boy…have so many people been programmed to fear fruit. Wow. It’s amazing. Anthony Williams has a whole podcast titled “fruit fear”- if you want, look for his podcast and search for the one on fruit fear. He’s on UA-cam here too and goes live aswell. His story is quite interesting. I also have all of his books on my iBooks.
Alrighty here it goes under the dotted line I’ll paste it from my notes. 🙂👍 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ The fundamental fuel for your body is glucose, a simple sugar that provides all your cells with the energy they need to function, heal, grow, and thrive. Glucose keeps us going-and keeps us alive. The central nervous system runs on it, as does every organ in the body, including the heart. Glucose is what we use to build and sustain muscle, and it performs vital functions such as repairing damaged tissue and cells. William, Anthony. Medical Medium (p. 91). Hay House. Kindle Edition. About the food, Dates: Similar to what happens with bananas, the amino acids in dates, such as leucine, help elevate the fruit’s potassium to its highest potential in sustaining and fortifying muscles and nerves. This process also stops lactic acid from taking over the body when it’s under stress. William, Anthony. Medical Medium Life-Changing Foods (p. 78). Hay House. Kindle Edition. Livers role in building muscle: The liver plays a role in athletics like nobody’s business. If marathon runners and other athletes knew how hard the liver works, and how responsible it is for getting you to your goal-that you can have the most agile muscles in the world and yet hit a wall if your liver runs out of stored nutrients such as sugar-physical training would rise to a whole new level. The liver releases all the stored glucose it has to get you to the finish line. Know that, and you have a whole new perspective on caring for your body for optimal performance. William, Anthony. Medical Medium Liver Rescue (p. 20). Hay House. Kindle Edition. Without glucose, we can’t cope with any pressure or stress. We need it to maintain healthy muscles, a healthy brain, and a healthy heart. And it’s imperative for the liver’s function and its ability to support your entire body. Not that all sugars are beneficial. Sweeteners such as table sugar and high-fructose corn syrup, which aren’t attached to nutrients, aren’t doing anyone any favors-they’re a drain on health. Certain sugars, though-natural sugars from whole foods, like those found in fruits, coconut water, raw honey, sweet potatoes, and the sugars you get from digestion of good carbohydrates like squash and potatoes-are wildly beneficial. William, Anthony. Medical Medium Liver Rescue (pp. 20-21). Hay House. Kindle Edition. A note about the protein myth: We think of protein building muscle when the reality is that we build muscles by using them and then fueling them with quality carbohydrates and sugars-and by our livers keeping our blood clean so that the carbohydrates and sugars aren’t mixed with the toxins and other troublemakers of dirty blood, and our muscles receive them in their purest form. William, Anthony. Medical Medium Liver Rescue (p. 110). Hay House. Kindle Edition. Here is a note about Celery juice and exercise fatigue: Exercise fatigue is another type that celery juice can address. This is the result of someone overusing muscles and exhausting the nervous system, from whatever type of exercise that may be. Runners and other athletes can identify this feeling as “hitting a wall.” Some non-athletes who haven’t built up their strength and endurance may experience exercise fatigue after working out on a basic level for 10 minutes. Either way, celery juice is a miracle worker, reviving muscles better than anything else can. It also helps support nerves inside the muscles, feeding both the nerves and muscles with its cluster salts. Muscle cells receive these cluster salts like a baby receives mother’s milk, and the cluster salts help rid the muscles of lactic acid and toxins that have built up in them from everyday exposure. Bringing celery juice into your routine can allow for faster recovery and rebound time. William, Anthony. Medical Medium Celery Juice (p. 59). Hay House. Kindle Edition. Here is info about how muscles are truly built: People often find themselves having trouble building muscle while keeping their bodies lean on a high-protein diet. This can be confusing, since so much messaging out there says that focusing on protein and eliminating or minimizing carbs is a secret to building muscle and getting fit. Somewhere along the way, the fitness community realized-though they won’t admit it-that protein alone wasn’t enough to build and sustain the lean muscle most desired. As a result, it’s become a trend to engage in “bulking and cutting.” That is, going through cycles of bringing excess calories (more than they burn or utilize) with a blend of protein, carbs, and fat (emphasis on protein) to gain body mass from their workouts and then, once they’ve gained what seems to be more muscle-yet in many cases is just a layer of swelling and toxic fat in and around the muscle-cutting back on calories with the goal of keeping the muscle and losing the fat they gained because they fear “fattening up.” This keeps people in a vicious cycle. It’s a big mistake in health right now. The goal should be the opposite: to not constantly have to minimize and maximize your calories to increase muscle mass. The gaining and losing weight strategy puts tremendous stress upon the body, especially the liver, and a weakened, stagnant, sluggish liver loses its ability to convert and store nutrients, which leads to nutrient deficiencies and accelerated aging later in life. This additional stress on the body can eventually show itself as cardiovascular issues, cholesterol imbalances, prediabetes, type 2 diabetes, unwanted weight gain, muscle tears, cartilage and joint wear and tear, kidney weakness, a weakened immune system, and more. If you end up with a whole different health issue down the line that’s diagnosed as autoimmune, it can take a greater toll on your body because of the previous years of bulking and cutting. The bulking theory is about increasing calories daily to create an abundance of fuel so someone can easily build larger amounts of muscle in a shorter period of time-all the while believing that the extra protein they’re eating is building their muscles and that some of the carbs they’re eating are getting stored as fat. Here’s what’s really happening: the extra carbs they’re eating are what’s actually building more muscle as they train hard. Meanwhile, the extra fat they’re adding to what they don’t realize is their already high-fat diet (they likely think it’s only high in protein) creates an overload on the liver and causes the increased fat storage on the body. William, Anthony. Medical Medium Cleanse to Heal (pp. 101-102). Hay House. Kindle Edition. So According to AW and MM info, Glucose in fruit and carb rich food like potatoes, sweet potatoes, and squash are key foods in building muscle: The way to safely and more efficiently build muscle is to provide the proper levels of glucose to muscle cells along with ample trace mineral salts to help insulin attach itself easily to the glucose and drive it into muscle tissue for muscles to sustain themselves without atrophy when you’re not working out and to grow when you can exercise. Lean muscle growth without fat gain cancels out the need to cut calories and engage in the cutting part of the bulking theory. Lowering fat is a critical part of building lean muscle. William, Anthony. Medical Medium Cleanse to Heal (p. 102). Hay House. Kindle Edition. Note about people tripping you up if you are trying to cleanse and worried about losing muscle: People sometimes fear they’ll lose muscle on a cleanse. Flipping through these cleanses and seeing that they don’t include bulking, cutting, or counting macros may reinforce this fear. Worried they won’t come out of a Medical Medium cleanse looking the way they want, they may think, He doesn’t know what he’s talking about. That’s the old protein monster brainwashing darkness that came out of the 1930s, and it’s going to trip people up from getting the help they need from this book-if they go into it uninformed. Don’t let that be you. William, Anthony. Medical Medium Cleanse to Heal (p. 103). Hay House. Kindle Edition. Bananas: You need ample amounts of glucose to function, keep muscles strong, replenish cells, and heal. Bananas are a perfect food when you’re chronically ill to prevent muscle atrophy from not being capable of exercising to the degree that people normally can. William, Anthony. Medical Medium Cleanse to Heal (p. 197). Hay House. Kindle Edition. So, What we can learn from what the books say is that Critical, Clean, Carbohydrates full of nutrient dense glucose is the answer to building muscle and fast. This means eating as many bananas, potatoes, sweet potatoes, squash, and other fruit that your body can possibly handle. It is what your muscles need to gain strength and the fastest. It is absolutely ok if you want to have a lean animal protein once a day as well. But the main tools for building muscle is whats stated above. We know now that protein is not the answer when wanting muscle gains, like previously thought, and still thought by most of the world. The muscles run on glucose and we shouldn't forget this. So to get the most out of your workouts, you could do something like a huge banana and wild blueberry smoothie, than afterword, have another bunch of bananas and mango in smoothie form or not, that doesnt really matter. Adding in dates can really help with muscle gains as well. Dinners should be mainly meals of lots of squash, steamed sweet potatoes and regular potatoes. Again, adding a small serving of animal protein if you wish, though not required. And we now know the problem if we focus too much on protein from the books and the truth behind whats building the muscle. Happy Muscle Building
It's true about what he says about the plant doesn't want to be eaten and it does have defences to avoid being eaten. It does not however have any idea that it's seeds are down a porcelain bowl once the fruit has been eaten.
I would like to add that eating some superfoods while transitiioning to all raw is a good idea. Particularly a seaweed such as Irish Moss, I am not talking about supplements at all. Seaweeds a good idea and herbs that are NOT pharmaceutically played with but from nature, such as Slippery Elm for the Tummy problems, Burdock and Milk Thistle to cleanse the system while transitioning. If sleep is an issue try Valerian, it is non addictive, calming and if taken in a higher dose enables a deep sleep for healing to take place
Gillian, sorry! One more question! I live in a very small town in South Africa. I cant get organic fruit, so i do the best i can. I normally use a Brita water filter, no other options. But i do have access to v good quality fresh mountain spring warer, half an hour drive from my house. How can i find out if i can drink this water or do i need to boil it first ?? BIG thank u 😘
Hey Brenda !! wow the spring water sounds like the ideal option but I would talk to someone else who is familiar with it to make sure it is safe without boiling ? Or to find out if it needs to be boiled ! and no worries ! happy to answer any questions that I can ✨✨✨✨✨ take care Brenda ! 💖💖💖
Very good interview lots of good info for new starters and vets alike...some veagans and fruitarians look older and withered because they are not eating drinking properly... alcohol for example ages a person another example veagan deepfried foods are not healthy yet another example, eating no fresh produce and only packet/frozen pre prepared vegetarian dishes is not healthy or not eating a full variety of fruit n veg is also lacking in glowing fuel eating at the wrong times or eating foods that make intolerences doesn't help either... the list is loooong and longer as to why some non animal consuming people look like a sick flower.
I think maybe some of the rapid aging in fruitarians is too much sun exposure. They often live in hot climates and spend a lot of time in the sun. I'm not saying the sun is unhealthy but over exposure definitely damages the skin.
I hear alot of anecdotes from carnivores who says they do not get sunburnt anymore. I believe in a diet free from toxins and irritants which are abundant in plant foods. I believe humans should eat easily obtainable (for a stone age man) palatable foods. Like fruit and meat. If you know what post-steak satisfaction feels like you will not question that meat is appropriate food for humans.
Chronometer shows 6 large Canteloupe is 54.7 grams of protein (with all essential amino acids) and also 3 grams of Omega 3's (187% RDA) for only 2,214 calories. Look it up in chronometer yourself. The athletes can have another half melon or couple of pieces of fruit to easily meet 60 grams protein if really think they need that and still stay under 2600 calories 🤣. You're just not gonna get 60g protein if all you eat is grapes all day long you have to have other fruits mix it up. The low protein content of the grapes is part of why that fast is so cleansing and healing. Autophagy baby. There is also the colors of prana or vital energy in the different fruits but I'm not going to teach that here in a comment. And yes I did 40 days on grapes only and on day 21 I added fresh lemon or lime juice to keep the bowels moving. Great experience 👍
71 start raw fruits diet loss a lot weight full of energy . I love fruits just eat them and exercise is not do not cause a problem . Learning how to survive live and not stress myself . Just love eating fruits and feel happy. I trying not eat food that is fry happy is good
Fruit un EEUU looks like very expensive is not? I buy... bananas 1€/kg, apples 1€/kg, oranges 0'8€/kg etc etc I buy at big places where they sell vegetables and Fruit to little shops.
Hi!! So you are 2 of my favorite people!! But I learned at one point that cooked protein is not all usable because it has been coagulated and unable to be broken down. Kind of like a raw egg vs a cooked egg. I did take A&P in college where I learned that protein has to be broken down into individual amino acids before it can be used by the body? Any thoughts? Its been many years since college! (1982)
what a great interview.. I even took notes... we need to understand protein.. see, protein is like the suitcase, inside the suitcase you have the 8 essential amino acids.. the protein suitcase needs hydrochloric acid in the stomach to pull apart the bag to retrieve the 8 essential amino acids.. these are in every plant because its their structure.. protein carb and fat are in every leaf, stem, fruit.. too much protein causes the nitrate and this is acid.. this harms kidneys too.. remember tho, protein is not for energy, its for the building blocks in the DNA . the DNA is the memory of cell creation.. for every organ, skin, tissue. people need to stop thinking they need more protein.. also the RDA is for the 24 hour period, its not 30+ grams every meal..
As far as protein, it depends on your goals. You won't find any bodybuilders or strongmen who can maintain their mass at 60g of protein. However, 4000 calories of oranges is 61g of protein, melons around 50g, kiwifruit closer to 70g.

How to Eat Raw Vegan on a Budget/$50 week: bit.ly/3M5nHTT
💜💜💜😀😀😀👍👍👍
I’m on 17th day of raw vegan diet and it’s just amazing. I’m already a different person. I know its just a beginning but I really feel good. I love fruits, it’s 80-90% of my diet ❤️
that's amazing Helena!!
How was your energy before and after you started and are you still doing raw?
Yeah but you can't just eat fruit it has too much sugar, this guy is wrong, there's lots of people that are prone to diabetes and they can't eat any fruit anymore.
@@counterstrike89 He's been doing this for years and is in better shape than me or you. What he has achieved is a testament to the lifestyle. If sugars are making people sick, maybe it's not the sugar alone that is but a combination of factors such as damaged organs or other foods in the body preventing the sugar from being absorbed.
@@Charlie-eq3dj If you just eat fruit, how many grams of sugar is that, seriously, think about that, I know its a bit different than white flower or table sugar because of the fiber and different nutrients so it absorbs differently, but..........still how many grams are we talking he eats in a day of fructose and glucose from the fruit, because its going to be off the charts. I try to eat more berries as they have less sugar in them then say things like melons or peaches etc.
Eli is so down to earth and so humble!
he really is ! great guy !
And wise, great to listen to
Eli's living proof. His flips & stunts show the strength he's maintained. Very active mind too. Awesome.
The most rational dietician I've ever heard in my life. I've came to the same thoughts about food we need. I am 54 and I've tried a lot of diets and fasting regimes in my life so I know what I say.
So true. Toxic hunger explains so much about the addiction to those unhealthy processed foods. Fruit is such a natural way to nourish our bodies. Thank you for sharing how the toxic food addiction can be helped by eating fruits.
Omg you two together made me so happy! You are an amazing interviewer! I know you get great people but the power of your presence, active listening, and excellent questions brings so much. And I can tell you put a lot of work into getting to know the people you interview.
And Eli, omg the charisma that man has! His videos have taught me so much and I really love his way of connecting everything with spiritual laws. He also makes the transition feel realistic even if long term fruitarian doesn't work for you, it can be a good starting place to move to raw vegan bc fruit is cheap and easy. Thanks so much Eli!
he's awesome!!! I love having him on!! & thanks so much Claire for all the positive feedback !!! ❤️❤️❤️✨✨✨✨✨ love you !
@@GillianBerry Its the truth. Love you❤️

Wonderful insights and information, thank you so much. Eli looks like a Buddhist Shaolin monk, very striking. All raw vegans have such flawless, glowing skin. It's fascinating how everything Eli is saying resonates exactly with what I have experienced.
Fred Bisci is still running at 92, he has not deteriorated whatsoever folks. Fred eats a lot of fruit and one salad a day. No deterioration.
Fred is awesome! Ric lambart is 93 and his will be posted soon you should see him at 93!! as a 47 year raw vegan.....Eli will be back on asap as well showing us what he eats and a viewer Q&A

Great interview. Our original diet according to the Bible is FRUIT.
All Eli's answers make sense. Thus, the whole thing is just a common sense.
Well done!

I would like to add something to the bloodwork/supplement discussion because I read some books from scientist and doctors about it who said that bloodwork is not a safe way to find out if one is deficient or not.
Because you don’t want the nutrients hanging around in the bloodstream, they need to be absorbed by the organs.
So if you have a high level of something in the blood it could also mean the organs aren’t absorbing it.
If you have a low level it does not mean one is deficient it could mean the organs are absorbing the nutrients well.
We would have to take samples of the actual organs to know if they are lacking anything or look specifically into the cells of a body to see if that cell is deficient.
And even then: can we really trust that science that says we need this and that amount when in fact there is a huge industry behind supplements that gains money from it? Even if there are a lot of very conscious businesses out there that mean well….
If we have all been deceived from the earliest of times who will know what’s wrong or true anymore?
I do supplement with zinc and B12 now and then and sometimes iodine because I am also confused and scared to make something wrong by keeping it out.
But I learn more and more that this whole topic might be completely different then we all have learned and understood so far.🤔
wow this is so interesting!! I have never thought of it this way but it would make sense !!
iodine is important but you can have too much and can have too little same with selenium !!
I take an all
in one supplement
has about 6 things for vegans and I'm so happy with it. If you want the link and my coupon code just let me know.
happy weekend !! ❤️❤️❤️
I also read the same facts. Hair analysis are more accurate, but of course you cannot see everything. You must use your intuition 😊
I can vouch for Eli. He used to be a real shit when he used to eat a standard western diet...he would flick the ears of old aged pensioners, pull the chair away from pregnant women just before they were sitting down and they would fall to the floor, he would quietly put blindfolds on guide dogs for blind people without them knowing etc etc!!! Now he eats fruit he is a genuine angel and really a lovely man. Thanks to you both for another great video, love to you both 💚🌞🙏
hahah no way no way haha you're funny
you're welcome glad you liked it G 💙
always a pleasure to interview him
not true
@@Tanyafree don't be fooled by that boy-ish smile and angelic persona. Underneath it all and once the fruit runs out, he's a demon!!! 💚🌞🙏
When you said, "He looks amazing and feels amazing", I thought you meant you went over to him and felt his arms or something at first ha ha
Several years ago I got really sick and doctors didn’t know what was wrong and pretty much refused to help me after a while. I went raw vegan for 4 months. I cured myself but in the process lost so much weight my dad was convinced I was on drugs. I didn’t give up tho becuz I could feel that it was working. Eventually I hit a tipping point and began to gain my weight back until it naturally stopped at my own unique ideal weight. My mind was sooo clear, I had so much energy and my skin and hair was practically glowing. I eventually went back to my standard diet and I now feel like shit 😭😭 I’m crawling my way back to good health again but this time I’ll never go back.
wow that's amazing you had that experience with it!!! was the same as me!!
yeah you will find your way back for good!!!
have an amazing weekend claire!!!
As to your weight loss and then gaining it back. That’s awesome to hear because I always tell people that want to go raw / plant based etc. Don’t worry, you will gain the weight back. Your body is just getting rid of all the excess harmful weight
Wow, I need to show this to my brother. 300lbs, in and out of hospitals, the last time 16 days, they discharged him so he could go home and spend his days fighting for his next breath. They, too, told him they can't do anything else for him (or in my mind, TO him). Don't know if he'll hear it, he worships "science," is vaxxed to the max, so to be honest I don't know if his body can respond to anything at this point. If he is willing and DOES want to do something different what do you think would be a good starting point without shocking his system and his ego-driven "no" response?
@@mike.d999 just to be clear, once I felt like my body was cured I went to a cooked foods vegetarian diet. That’s how I gained the weight back. Had I stayed raw vegan I could’ve died. I feel it’s meant as a medicinal thing, not a life long thing.
This was so helpful thank you! You covered all the questions I was pondering in regards to becoming fruitarian. Thank you for lighting the path 🌟🍌🍍🍉🙏
Amazing !! I am planning more videos with Eli soon !
@@GillianBerry looking forward to it 😁
I feel hungry a lot of the time when I drink smoothies and eat dried fruit (essentially a kind of 'refined' carbohydrate...) I am fairly sure this is to do with insulin resistance (which does run in my family). When I eat my fruit whole and fresh my experience couldn't be more different, then I relate to hunger in the way that Eli describes, it's just not an issue...so liberating. So many people seem to experience this problem on a raw diet and often return to cooked food because of it...the advice is always just to eat more but I tried this for years (bigger smoothies, more dates) and just felt hungrier than ever. I think there must be others out there like me who simply need to cut out the juice, blended and dried fruit... loving the interview! 🙏
these are REALLY REALLY great and key points you have made here!! I think this is why early on when I transitioned I did not deal at all with that hunger people refer to because I was not blending anything....it was all food in the form it comes in!! Makes a difference and is more natural at the end of the day! Glad you discovered this and didn't just give up on health:)))) take care Tammie!!!!!
@@GillianBerry 🙏🙏
Or when you do want some dried fruit be sure to soak it for a few hours before eating it
Or when you do want some dried fruit be sure to soak it for a few hours before eating it
There is only 5-7% by calories of protein in mother's milk, that's the time we need to grow the most. That's a good indicator of how much protein we need.. So yeah, fruitarian do get enough protien. We need to increase our absorption capacities be physically active which is very low in toxic acidic bodies cos of eating all the junk. And hence when we only eat fruit in the beginning work out are difficult. If we are clean like Eli, then hey yo, fruit is the way to go! Thank you for bringing up all these amazing questions Gillian, really loved the video! Just finished watching it on the way to the town for Sunday fruit shopping. ! Much much love to both of you beautiful beings in Canada from India ♡♡

What an awesome interview, I loved it! You and Eli embody this lifestyle so perfectly in all ways. Inspiring, beautiful people..thank you for sharing your light!! ❤️
❤️❤️❤️
I’m really inspired by Eli. Very interesting interview. He seemed to fill in a lot of gaps in the information I have so far. Thank you.
What a beautiful setting you provide for these interviews. Another nice interview with Eli. Poor guy can not take a compliment. Too bad because that is a testament to his lifestyle. But that's okay; he may come around and learn to accept them gracefully. After all, the alternative to a nice compliment would be much worse. Anyhow - I think two other people that could answer a lot of those questions would be Cyrus Khambatta and Robby Bararo. Robby has been Fruitarian, or Frugivore for some time now, and he's a Type 1 Diabetic. He always provides such great insight to the Fruitarian lifestyle. Loved your outfit - you looked beautiful.
thanks so much ,)))) ❤️❤️❤️
ok I will look into them !!!
Great to see you back Eli, thanks Gillian ❤️👍❤️
my pleasure ❤️❤️❤️
haha, my two favourite influencers and wayshowers on my most recent experiment of raw life hang out ... but i am left with sooo many questions now. Why does he look at the camera and not at her when talking? (teaching versus conversation) Why are those two not married - so he can become Eli Berry the fruitarian? Why does he have a flipphone? Where can I get a flipphone? Loved this, thanks so much 😍🥳
LOL love your questions 🤣🤣🤣
I love this comment 😂🙏🏻💜
The two relevant things: 1) he is well tanned, 2) he is highly physically active.
This is the trend of all healthy-looking fruitarians, especially those that are exclusively fruit. The less active the more vegetables needed. Sun is essential for the nutrients sun provides, especially those involved in sugar metabolism.
His father is colored and his mom is Italian.
I feel amazing when I eat fruits only. It’s like next level. You have to be vegetarian and then transition to vegan first in order to reach the fruitarian or raw fruit diet. It’s very spiritual and Eli explains it best. Everyone has to try it for themselves at least for a few days to see the true power of what fruits can do. Heal.
it's so true !! fruits make you feel amazing !!!

For the dutch people watching this: money is no excuse.
Went to the market today and bought:
12 kilo's oranges for 10 euro,
5 kilo bananas for 5 euro,
4 kilo grapes for 6 euro
that is 21 euro for my food for a whole week. Eating approximatily 1800 cal a day. No not organic. That is why I rinse my food with salt water to remove most pesticides. Still good and healthy in comparison with excellent organic fruit en wayyyy healthier than junkfood or processed food.
Eating plantbased is very cheap. Potatoes, rice,beans are all very cheap when you buy them in bulk.
I truly don't understand why dutch people keep saying that eating healthy is expensive. It's not. It's not. It's not.Not in our country.
Great!!!
It's a very common thing regardless of where one lives to think it can be expensive! But I feel when there is a will there is a way and there are definitely ways all over or in most places to do it on a budget! Take care Adriana!

I am transitioning to fruitarian after 26 years vegan right now. : )) Have thought about it many times, but now the time is right and I am ready in many ways. Eli reminds me a lot of me and we share very similar ways of describing life and being optimal in many ways, not just diet. Excited to share my story more once I have the transition behind me.

MOST IMPORTANT EXPLANATION ON EVOLUTION AND FOOD THANK YOU THAT CLARIFIES MANY THINGS
@19:42 - Gillian you say something really important. "Belief is important". I think that when we become fully fruitarian, it is only sustainable under certain conditions. Firstly the level of cleanliness already achieved - which is why for most people a transition makes more sense. (for myself i went fully raw a few times and ping-ponged back and forth and had binges, before finally managing to settle - many would give up during this period). This is because you crave what you're made of, and if you're body has a lot of toxic crap inside, especially as it begins to detox and we 're-experience' those toxins, it can be hard not to buckle. I'm finally completely raw, mostly fruit, finally. I just stuck with it. Secondly -- for those who do a lot of 'ping-pong' and food-binges, you need to address a few spiritual/mental issues. If you know it's going to be hard at first, yet you buckle anyway - then you must accept that cooked food is doing a lot to suppress certain feelings/experiences (whether important life events or day to day things we try not to face) and that in the modern world the average human is riddled with addictions. If you remove the bad foods, but don't address the parts of your personality that are not fulfilled/not aligned with your true self... you always fail, and fall back into a way of eating that incorporates either a) stimulating chemistry or b) suppressive chemistry/substances .. or both. So - simplified - when removing bad habits, good habits (and even good relationships with certain aspects of our lives or certain hobbies) need to be introduced or strengthened. If you are not fulfilled spiritually and have not developed the strength to address the aspects of your life you are neglecting, you will always crave something chemical to draw you back from the challenge of facing those aspects. Conversely.. if you go fully raw, but don't address these aspects, and yet somehow stay raw --- I believe you can experience the 'deterioration' some people worry about. Because you are not feeding the soul. Your entire being feels malnourished. And the body responds.
I’d love to hear more about his dry fasting he said he was on in that first video. Thanks for the videos!

I’m excited and interested to hear about his experience. Thank you for having him back!
amazing interview thank you for making this happen :)
hey it's my pleasure !!! have a great day 💜
U have the best channel out there for raw vegans
thank you !!!!
As a vegan of 12 years (and now fruitarian), I have a wonderful relationship with a man who consumes an omnivorous diet. Neither one of us try to push our beliefs upon each other when it comes to nutrition. We do discuss the differences in our diets, however the conversation is always coming from a place of curiosity rather than judgment. We go out to eat together and also sit and have dinner together. My interest in a fruit-based diet has encouraged him to eat more fruit each day, which he says makes him feel amazing. He is healthy, and so I am! Even though we are consuming foods at opposite ends of the spectrum, we have found what works for each of us.
I'd never push him to give up his typical diet. He's an adult and it's his choice. Furthermore, he feels good eating the way he does, and it's not my place to change that. We were influenced by different people in the health space to pursue the ways of eating that we have. I think one important thing is that we both eat whole foods. Although he does eat animal products, he does not have processed foods or junk foods. This is very important to me, as I don't think I could be in a relationship with a person who consumes TV dinners, pastries, and fast foods on the regular. Most foods in supermarkets are not foods at all, and I really appreciate that we are both mindful of what we are putting into our systems. I have met vegans that consume junk foods, and to me it looks no different than the Standard American Diet. Living in a house with junk foods in the pantry would not be appealing to me. The meat in the refrigerator is actually a lot less shocking to me than the artificial foods that most people stock their homes with.
My partner is an absolute perfect match for me energetically. He understands me very well on an emotional, physical, and spiritual level. He supports me in every facet of our life together and completes me. We have so many things in common, however diet is not one of them, except for our whole foods lifestyle.
I'd never trade my relationship for a vegan man, even if he was good-looking, nice to me, and a multi-millionaire. I dated only vegan men prior to this relationship and used to have pretty fixed opinions about dating as a vegan. All of that changed when I met the right person. I believe it's important to remain open to meeting the right energetic match - someone who sees you, gets you, and who is actually eager to express nurturing or leadership in your life.
Just because someone is vegan, does not mean they are a good fit for your values (surprising, but true), your goals in the relationship, or anything else, for that matter.
You both are truly a blessing ❤️🙏🏾

@@GillianBerry me and my bro. Are on 90 days of fruits. Melons, grapes, and berries. Will keep you updated!
@@aharunyahu2568 wow no way !! that's awesome !! let me know how it goes !! would love to hear
@@GillianBerry will do. Thank you!
Tried fruitarian for several weeks. It's not for me. Not enough fats, not enough nutrients, and too damn hungry and miserable all the time. I'm happy being high-raw vegan. Also, I'm not sure humans are frugivores. Chimpanzees eat fruits and leaves, but occasionally kill and eat small monkeys and pigs, per the Jane Goodall website (95% vegan, 5% animal products). I'm not advocating meat eating. I think the chimps are just searching for missing nutrients and protein, and we can do this through supplementation (Dr. Gregor said something similar). Anyway, great interview. It's great to watch everyone on this journey as we struggle to find the perfect human diet, and I think we're getting close. Thanks.
that's awesome Jeremy - I am happy you have found what's working for you right now!! It is good you tried fruitarian and know now!! I have never tried to see how I would react. I have done mono fruit cleanses which I love!!! But I love a big variety too much for my regular raw vegan diet to convert to fruitarian! But may try it for a month sometime for fun to see how I feel! And it's def working for Eli!! Glad you liked the interview! Have a great weekend Jeremy!
Great interview! Would love time stamps with these FAQ style interviews.
Hey !! Yes people keep asking ! I need to figure out how to do this ! It's on my list !! Been filming so much plus have my kids ,)))
It has automatic chapters so isn't that time stamping ? Or do you mean in the description add times with questions ? I will figure it out !!! thanks for your patience doing the most I can each day 💙💙💙✨✨✨✨
He really is beautiful. Like, I'm tryna take in some info but literally, every minute or two I'm thinking, "he's so gorgeous!"
lol 😂
Yeah it should be said that this dude does indeed have a powerful way of framing concepts delivering the concepts I'm a fan He's good
just filmed a couple more vids with him so stay tuned
Yaaay love you & Eli together 💙
I am currently doing the raw til 4 now and it’s all fruit until 4 then High carbs mostly potatoes at night. I feel great so far but no weight loss at all, I finished a 45 day juice fast about 2 weeks which I loved and did fantastic! Only Gained 2 lbs back and have been maintaining that since doing the raw til 4.
How much weight did you lose during the juice fast? I'm on day 3 of a 40 day fruit and veggie juice fast, and I don't mind admitting "40" sounds like years from now! Any tips on how to stay diligent and focused?
What a great interview. And Eli has it down. And this is why so many vegans and raw vegans fail. You cant thrive not focusing on fruit. Many vegetables are hard to digest for a reason. And correct we are not true herbivores with 4 stomachs etc.
thanks for watching John ! I'm really glad you enjoyed it 💜
Regarding the creatine question, I googled creatine in fruit, found a list, and it looks like all fruits contain some creatine. So, as Eli said, if you eat enough calories, you can't not get the amino acids you need. It's the marketing of the meat industry that convinces people that they have to get creatine from meat.
I highly recommend you brush more than 1x/day. Bacteria grows logarithmically and build biofilms that needs to be broken down mechanically like brushing. Not brushing breaking down that biofilm and not flossing is linked/associated to many systemic diseases including cardiovascular issues, certain cancers, alzheimers, infertility and the list goes on.. Let alone not to mention the direct links of not brushing 2x/day and flossing 1x/day with periodontal disease (which can cause tooth loss) and cavities.. etc.. I love your passion about being a fruitarian and healthy and I just want to educate you on something important for your health as you obviously care about your health.
I think oil pulling is great for dental care as well and killing bacteria !! I used to do it every morning followed by brushing snd my teeth felt better than ever !!!!
@@GillianBerry many oils are antibacterial and a great accompaniment to brushing! Bacteria biofilms unfortunately do not break down on their own with just oil pulling so I am glad you do both! I support both!
I finally got to watch this and I love you both so much! Thank you so much for such a wonderful interview 🙏💛 so informative
yay so happy you watched !!! love you Jacqui ❤️
Awesome interview!! Eli gives such great insight🙏🏻
💛💛💛
Yes yes and yes , no wonder I am fruit lover , if there any food my choices will be fruit , and it make do much sense❤❤
Thank you . This was very useful .
welcome! two new ones coming with Eli soon...
Thank you so much for this interview. I learned alot!
you are so very welcome !! lots more vids with Eli coming up !!
A flip phone! 3 minutes in and I'm a fan already!
😁😁😁
Fantastic interview. Thanks! 😀
welcome 💙
I’m binge watching all your interviews. Thanks so much! I wish you could touch on the topics of manifestation and law of attraction more. It’s one of my biggest motivator. Lol 😂
yes !!!!! i plan on it !!!!!!
He’s the only one I’ve seen that is making this look appealing.. 🤔 I would never thought eating fruit only could work but he looks so healthy and happy.
you should see him in person !! he looks so good and healthy
@@GillianBerry Yes I’m sure. I’m 50, mum of 3, eating the usual western diet, slightly overweight, usually tired (self dx chronic fatigue), poor digestion.. I need to make some changes as I don’t want to spend the rest of my life feeling like this.
@@universaltruth2025 you can do it !!!!! i'm here rooting for you !! you deserve total health and happiness !! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😁😁😁
@@GillianBerry Thank you ❤️🙏❤️ 🙂
Hey sis 🙂 I see you brought him back for another interview. I’m watching some of this while sipping on some celery juice.
Do you happen to believe in God or The Bible? One of the questions you asked made me wonder if you did. 🙂
You asked; don’t you think that God also intended for us to eat both greens and fruits; I kind of paraphrased what you said.
I believe that the first meat that God provided for man was greens and fruits.
Yeah, I think it’s better having both. Herbs and greens are wonderful and so are fruits. God created them both for food.
I definitely believe in God ,) I haven't read the bible in full
I do believe in God and the after life most definitely,)
I follow a lot of Joel Osteen
& conversations with god by neale donald walsch is my fav book
Ciao Gillian, go on rolling with this, supporting from Italy
💚💚💚
🇮🇹 🇨🇦
More with Eli fantastic content !!!
ok will bring him back!
@@GillianBerry :D awesome :) :) you two are such great energy
He is so cute..I don't get hungry either..I discovered that once the cells are nutrilized they are satiated and happy and keep you full and satisfied for hours..I can go for long periods of time without food..I love it..same when I fast..I feel truly amazing..I love this lifestyle..detoxification..electric foods is EVERYTHING!!!🍇🍌🍋🍉🍎🍐🍏🍍🥝
amazing ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Fantastic interview. You and Eli are the raw vegans I am subscribed to that I look forward to watching new uploads from!
Are you possibly recording with a camcorder? Looks like a Sony or Panasonic.
glad you liked it!!! I don't know how to film and edit my own videos I have someone who I hire to do that he says it's a dslr camera........maybe one day I will be more tech saavy with that stuff....but so far hasn't happened only causes me stress and headaches lol
did you think it filmed ok?
@@GillianBerry Yes your videos are excellently captured. I should note that I've heard you mention Markus Rothkranz a couple of times in several of your videos and he has a channel dedicated to videography and photography, and one of the highlights of that channel is he advocates for using camcorders to film videos which are very simple to use in being a press play and record experience.
I think you would benefit from acquiring a camcorder which could help you create some independence for producing your content. Here's one of his videos that he made recently that easily demonstrates the ease of using a camcorder. I hope you find it interesting. ua-cam.com/video/KmZH3rGjjlQ/v-deo.html
@@Kizarat thanks !!! ok will check it out !!! i have watched his channel here and there for that stuff !! ❤️❤️❤️❤️✨✨✨
@@GillianBerry He inspired me to buy camcorders and it's a huge improvement over recording with a smartphone. He's got two other videos on camcorders that I believe are worth watching if you have gained some interest so far.

Great to see Eli on your channel again! Off topic question though, were they yellow dragonfruit in the bowl? I would love to try those! We only get the regular white and red ones in Australia.
yes ! there were some yellow dragon fruit in the bowl ! they're so good ! if you ever get a chance...def try it !
Dr Valter Longo , he’s considered the leading scientist in health and longevity in the world , along with Dr David Sinclair (phd) whose on the cutting edge of increasing healthy life span, both see and write about how the only diet they see that leads to health and longer health span are plant based , higher carb (not lower carb) from plants, and lower in protein diets.
I was just reading in dr longo’s book about protein, not just from animals but all protein. According his research “adequate” amount is .31 to .36 grams per pound of body weight, & eating higher than that as a practice isn’t good for longevity and health . Even on days I only eat fruits I hit my adequate amount!
👍✌️❤️❤️
What I want to know folks! 😎😋is.. if COOKED VEGAN FOODS really do deplete nutrients in light of how much we have destroyed the soil with run off and lack of rotating soils - pollution in the air, chemicals spray; etc, etc. FRUIT NUTS & SEEDS ROCK!
I'm making the beautiful journey transitioning from cooked foods. I'm on my goal to achieve it by 2023. Gillian - you are such a breath of fresh air; especially over the BS of Freelee as well as Fully Raw Kristina.
Thanks for watching so happy you're enjoying the content ✨✨✨💖💖💖
tha,nks for the great interview Gillian . Gorilla are not frugivores, they are mostly herbivores with some fruits , and also roots , flowers, grains , barks and some insects . Orang outang are mostly frugivore but eat also some leaves, insects and clay and tree barks
You're welcome Charlotte!!!!
Good information, thank you both!
anytime Donna! More videos coming this spring with Eli !!
I love lettuce and I’m thrilled to munch on leaves in between my fruit meals I’m raw vegan since more than 10y 😉
that's awesome!!! I do sometimes munch on it too after farmers markets with cherry tomatoes!!! congrats on 10 YEARS RAW VEGAN!!!!!! WOW !!! that is so awesome!!!!!!!!
Im this same. Ive tried fruit based days and every time I endedup CRAVING the greens very quickly. I dont have a sweet tooth at all in other ways. Never liked dessert I love bitter components in foods. 80% raw (and at times 100%) for over 10 years. I know fruit is sooo good for you but I cant bring myself to make it a majpr part of my diet. : /
Lettuce is different from other leafy greens. Besides being high in fiber and water which might cure "cravings" it can be mildly sweet too which makes it much easier to eat it alone. It also has some "drug" qualities to it, possibly relaxing someone who eats it.
Awesome work karoAdc! Your body is definitely gonna be loving you for your good habits :). Thanks for being an example to your circle :)
Love the flip phone 😂❤
Hi, and really nice video ! Thank you !
Can you please tell us if Eli consumes any type of caffeine in any form ? Like coffee, cacao, black tea, etc
Thanks again 🙏
no nothing ,)
Hi again! Also want to know how much fruit, and other foods Eli consumes per day? What is a typical day (fruit regimen) look like for him?
Great question! I can ask and get back to you..,also this is great for me to save and ask for part 3 one day also 😄💜✌️
Hey twin soul! Hmm.. so typically i regard each fruit type as a meal i. Its own yeah? So there is gonna be that bit of variability day to day.. last week was nothing but clementines and lemon water.. but aside from that, i think im enjoying around 2-3 types of fruit during a day, and whichever types of fruit they are, each one is a meal. So let s say,.. start of with a honeydew melon as. A meal, then a bit later a bunch of black plums. Followed later on (some hours later) by a meal of mangoes. If i dont feel like eating multiple times a day that day, then maybe it s only 2 types of fruit that day in smaller window. (Or not. Maybe i still do have 3-4 types of fruit in one Mega-meal window.. it all depends how i feel).. or just pizza all day, but whatever. Lol. Kiddiiiing kidding.
Oh speaking of fruit fear. Boy…have so many people been programmed to fear fruit. Wow. It’s amazing. Anthony Williams has a whole podcast titled “fruit fear”- if you want, look for his podcast and search for the one on fruit fear. He’s on UA-cam here too and goes live aswell. His story is quite interesting. I also have all of his books on my iBooks.
The other interesting podcast he has is called “the protein myth”.
I haven’t even shared the info yet. Smh hehe.
Alrighty here it goes under the dotted line I’ll paste it from my notes. 🙂👍
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
The fundamental fuel for your body is glucose, a simple sugar that provides all your cells with the energy they need to function, heal, grow, and thrive. Glucose keeps us going-and keeps us alive. The central nervous system runs on it, as does every organ in the body, including the heart. Glucose is what we use to build and sustain muscle, and it performs vital functions such as repairing damaged tissue and cells.
William, Anthony. Medical Medium (p. 91). Hay House. Kindle Edition.
About the food, Dates:
Similar to what happens with bananas, the amino acids in dates, such as leucine, help elevate the fruit’s potassium to its highest potential in sustaining and fortifying muscles and nerves. This process also stops lactic acid from taking over the body when it’s under stress.
William, Anthony. Medical Medium Life-Changing Foods (p. 78). Hay House. Kindle Edition.
Livers role in building muscle:
The liver plays a role in athletics like nobody’s business. If marathon runners and other athletes knew how hard the liver works, and how responsible it is for getting you to your goal-that you can have the most agile muscles in the world and yet hit a wall if your liver runs out of stored nutrients such as sugar-physical training would rise to a whole new level. The liver releases all the stored glucose it has to get you to the finish line. Know that, and you have a whole new perspective on caring for your body for optimal performance.
William, Anthony. Medical Medium Liver Rescue (p. 20). Hay House. Kindle Edition.
Without glucose, we can’t cope with any pressure or stress. We need it to maintain healthy muscles, a healthy brain, and a healthy heart. And it’s imperative for the liver’s function and its ability to support your entire body. Not that all sugars are beneficial. Sweeteners such as table sugar and high-fructose corn syrup, which aren’t attached to nutrients, aren’t doing anyone any favors-they’re a drain on health. Certain sugars, though-natural sugars from whole foods, like those found in fruits, coconut water, raw honey, sweet potatoes, and the sugars you get from digestion of good carbohydrates like squash and potatoes-are wildly beneficial.
William, Anthony. Medical Medium Liver Rescue (pp. 20-21). Hay House. Kindle Edition.
A note about the protein myth:
We think of protein building muscle when the reality is that we build muscles by using them and then fueling them with quality carbohydrates and sugars-and by our livers keeping our blood clean so that the carbohydrates and sugars aren’t mixed with the toxins and other troublemakers of dirty blood, and our muscles receive them in their purest form.
William, Anthony. Medical Medium Liver Rescue (p. 110). Hay House. Kindle Edition.
Here is a note about Celery juice and exercise fatigue:
Exercise fatigue is another type that celery juice can address. This is the result of someone overusing muscles and exhausting the nervous system, from whatever type of exercise that may be. Runners and other athletes can identify this feeling as “hitting a wall.” Some non-athletes who haven’t built up their strength and endurance may experience exercise fatigue after working out on a basic level for 10 minutes. Either way, celery juice is a miracle worker, reviving muscles better than anything else can. It also helps support nerves inside the muscles, feeding both the nerves and muscles with its cluster salts. Muscle cells receive these cluster salts like a baby receives mother’s milk, and the cluster salts help rid the muscles of lactic acid and toxins that have built up in them from everyday exposure. Bringing celery juice into your routine can allow for faster recovery and rebound time.
William, Anthony. Medical Medium Celery Juice (p. 59). Hay House. Kindle Edition.
Here is info about how muscles are truly built:
People often find themselves having trouble building muscle while keeping their bodies lean on a high-protein diet. This can be confusing, since so much messaging out there says that focusing on protein and eliminating or minimizing carbs is a secret to building muscle and getting fit. Somewhere along the way, the fitness community realized-though they won’t admit it-that protein alone wasn’t enough to build and sustain the lean muscle most desired. As a result, it’s become a trend to engage in “bulking and cutting.” That is, going through cycles of bringing excess calories (more than they burn or utilize) with a blend of protein, carbs, and fat (emphasis on protein) to gain body mass from their workouts and then, once they’ve gained what seems to be more muscle-yet in many cases is just a layer of swelling and toxic fat in and around the muscle-cutting back on calories with the goal of keeping the muscle and losing the fat they gained because they fear “fattening up.” This keeps people in a vicious cycle. It’s a big mistake in health right now. The goal should be the opposite: to not constantly have to minimize and maximize your calories to increase muscle mass. The gaining and losing weight strategy puts tremendous stress upon the body, especially the liver, and a weakened, stagnant, sluggish liver loses its ability to convert and store nutrients, which leads to nutrient deficiencies and accelerated aging later in life. This additional stress on the body can eventually show itself as cardiovascular issues, cholesterol imbalances, prediabetes, type 2 diabetes, unwanted weight gain, muscle tears, cartilage and joint wear and tear, kidney weakness, a weakened immune system, and more. If you end up with a whole different health issue down the line that’s diagnosed as autoimmune, it can take a greater toll on your body because of the previous years of bulking and cutting.
The bulking theory is about increasing calories daily to create an abundance of fuel so someone can easily build larger amounts of muscle in a shorter period of time-all the while believing that the extra protein they’re eating is building their muscles and that some of the carbs they’re eating are getting stored as fat. Here’s what’s really happening: the extra carbs they’re eating are what’s actually building more muscle as they train hard. Meanwhile, the extra fat they’re adding to what they don’t realize is their already high-fat diet (they likely think it’s only high in protein) creates an overload on the liver and causes the increased fat storage on the body.
William, Anthony. Medical Medium Cleanse to Heal (pp. 101-102). Hay House. Kindle Edition.
So According to AW and MM info, Glucose in fruit and carb rich food like potatoes, sweet potatoes, and squash are key foods in building muscle:
The way to safely and more efficiently build muscle is to provide the proper levels of glucose to muscle cells along with ample trace mineral salts to help insulin attach itself easily to the glucose and drive it into muscle tissue for muscles to sustain themselves without atrophy when you’re not working out and to grow when you can exercise. Lean muscle growth without fat gain cancels out the need to cut calories and engage in the cutting part of the bulking theory. Lowering fat is a critical part of building lean muscle.
William, Anthony. Medical Medium Cleanse to Heal (p. 102). Hay House. Kindle Edition.
Note about people tripping you up if you are trying to cleanse and worried about losing muscle:
People sometimes fear they’ll lose muscle on a cleanse. Flipping through these cleanses and seeing that they don’t include bulking, cutting, or counting macros may reinforce this fear. Worried they won’t come out of a Medical Medium cleanse looking the way they want, they may think, He doesn’t know what he’s talking about. That’s the old protein monster brainwashing darkness that came out of the 1930s, and it’s going to trip people up from getting the help they need from this book-if they go into it uninformed. Don’t let that be you.
William, Anthony. Medical Medium Cleanse to Heal (p. 103). Hay House. Kindle Edition.
Bananas:
You need ample amounts of glucose to function, keep muscles strong, replenish cells, and heal. Bananas are a perfect food when you’re chronically ill to prevent muscle atrophy from not being capable of exercising to the degree that people normally can.
William, Anthony. Medical Medium Cleanse to Heal (p. 197). Hay House. Kindle Edition.
So, What we can learn from what the books say is that Critical, Clean, Carbohydrates full of nutrient dense glucose is the answer to building muscle and fast. This means eating as many bananas, potatoes, sweet potatoes, squash, and other fruit that your body can possibly handle. It is what your muscles need to gain strength and the fastest. It is absolutely ok if you want to have a lean animal protein once a day as well. But the main tools for building muscle is whats stated above. We know now that protein is not the answer when wanting muscle gains, like previously thought, and still thought by most of the world. The muscles run on glucose and we shouldn't forget this.
So to get the most out of your workouts, you could do something like a huge banana and wild blueberry smoothie, than afterword, have another bunch of bananas and mango in smoothie form or not, that doesnt really matter. Adding in dates can really help with muscle gains as well. Dinners should be mainly meals of lots of squash, steamed sweet potatoes and regular potatoes. Again, adding a small serving of animal protein if you wish, though not required. And we now know the problem if we focus too much on protein from the books and the truth behind whats building the muscle.
Happy Muscle Building
After I read this….hehehe. That was it. Now I can eat 1000 bananas a day. Lol hahahaha
Right on... we're tropical beings
It's true about what he says about the plant doesn't want to be eaten and it does have defences to avoid being eaten. It does not however have any idea that it's seeds are down a porcelain bowl once the fruit has been eaten.
I would like to add that eating some superfoods while transitiioning to all raw is a good idea. Particularly a seaweed such as Irish Moss, I am not talking about supplements at all. Seaweeds a good idea and herbs that are NOT pharmaceutically played with but from nature, such as Slippery Elm for the Tummy problems, Burdock and Milk Thistle to cleanse the system while transitioning. If sleep is an issue try Valerian, it is non addictive, calming and if taken in a higher dose enables a deep sleep for healing to take place
Hey have you heard that valerian root causes infertility? Just curious?
@@desiree1802 Actually no I haven't. How much research have you done on that? It would be good to know more.
Gillian, sorry! One more question! I live in a very small town in South Africa. I cant get organic fruit, so i do the best i can. I normally use a Brita water filter, no other options. But i do have access to v good quality fresh mountain spring warer, half an hour drive from my house. How can i find out if i can drink this water or do i need to boil it first ?? BIG thank u 😘
Hey Brenda !! wow the spring water sounds like the ideal option but I would talk to someone else who is familiar with it to make sure it is safe without boiling ? Or to find out if it needs to be boiled !
and no worries ! happy to answer any questions that I can ✨✨✨✨✨
take care Brenda ! 💖💖💖
good video i think he can live soo much fruit and sustain because he exercise soo much .i think its the exercise
yeah you're probably right in that the exercise helps big time with this !
Very good interview lots of good info for new starters and vets alike...some veagans and fruitarians look older and withered because they are not eating drinking properly...
alcohol for example ages a person
another example veagan deepfried foods are not healthy
yet another example, eating no fresh produce and only packet/frozen pre prepared vegetarian dishes is not healthy
or not eating a full variety of fruit n veg is also lacking in glowing fuel
eating at the wrong times
or eating foods that make intolerences doesn't help either...
the list is loooong and longer as to why some non animal consuming people look like a sick flower.
Thank you 🙏❤️
welcome 💙 thanks for being here
I think maybe some of the rapid aging in fruitarians is too much sun exposure. They often live in hot climates and spend a lot of time in the sun. I'm not saying the sun is unhealthy but over exposure definitely damages the skin.
yeah good point!
I hear alot of anecdotes from carnivores who says they do not get sunburnt anymore.
I believe in a diet free from toxins and irritants which are abundant in plant foods. I believe humans should eat easily obtainable (for a stone age man) palatable foods. Like fruit and meat. If you know what post-steak satisfaction feels like you will not question that meat is appropriate food for humans.
Eli’s examples are always so funny. Cactus 🌵
I know right 😂
Chronometer shows 6 large Canteloupe is 54.7 grams of protein (with all essential amino acids) and also 3 grams of Omega 3's (187% RDA) for only 2,214 calories. Look it up in chronometer yourself. The athletes can have another half melon or couple of pieces of fruit to easily meet 60 grams protein if really think they need that and still stay under 2600 calories 🤣. You're just not gonna get 60g protein if all you eat is grapes all day long you have to have other fruits mix it up. The low protein content of the grapes is part of why that fast is so cleansing and healing. Autophagy baby. There is also the colors of prana or vital energy in the different fruits but I'm not going to teach that here in a comment. And yes I did 40 days on grapes only and on day 21 I added fresh lemon or lime juice to keep the bowels moving. Great experience 👍
71 start raw fruits diet loss a lot weight full of energy . I love fruits just eat them and exercise is not do not cause a problem . Learning how to survive live and not stress myself . Just love eating fruits and feel happy. I trying not eat food that is fry happy is good
I need his calm wisdom at those times of weakness haha
😄😁
Fruit un EEUU looks like very expensive is not? I buy... bananas 1€/kg, apples 1€/kg, oranges 0'8€/kg etc etc I buy at big places where they sell vegetables and Fruit to little shops.
Only frutarian diet and some vegetables in Spain and eating a lot I spent 30-50€ maximum
Long ago I stopped caring if others were upset by my vegan diet.
Hi!! So you are 2 of my favorite people!! But I learned at one point that cooked protein is not all usable because it has been coagulated and unable to be broken down. Kind of like a raw egg vs a cooked egg. I did take A&P in college where I learned that protein has to be broken down into individual amino acids before it can be used by the body? Any thoughts? Its been many years since college! (1982)
I just discovered Eli and already really liked him, but then I saw the flip phone and now worship him! Ha!
LOL this made me laugh
what a great interview.. I even took notes...
we need to understand protein.. see, protein is like the suitcase,
inside the suitcase you have the 8 essential amino acids..
the protein suitcase needs hydrochloric acid in the stomach to pull apart the bag to retrieve the 8 essential amino acids..
these are in every plant because its their structure.. protein carb and fat are in every leaf, stem, fruit..
too much protein causes the nitrate and this is acid.. this harms kidneys too..
remember tho, protein is not for energy, its for the building blocks in the DNA .
the DNA is the memory of cell creation.. for every organ, skin, tissue.
people need to stop thinking they need more protein.. also the RDA is for the 24 hour period, its not 30+ grams every meal..
As far as protein, it depends on your goals. You won't find any bodybuilders or strongmen who can maintain their mass at 60g of protein. However, 4000 calories of oranges is 61g of protein, melons around 50g, kiwifruit closer to 70g.
This guy looks like a super cool guy.
