Great video ! I stopped placing myself in a food label box years ago and now I'm happier than ever. Some weeks I'm raw and some weeks I'm cooked and some weeks I'm raw all day until dinner then a cooked dinner. Week to week it is determined by how I feel .
I attended a summer potluck many years ago. The host couple provided a watermelon. Many of the guests got food poisoning. After calling the guests on the day after the event, the hostess deduced that the watermelon was the cause of their illness. I did not eat the watermelon, and did not get sick. Scrubbing the rind of the watermelon is not a step to skip. Any bacteria on the exterior of the melon can contaminate the inner flesh upon cutting into it. Live and learn. Be well everybody!
Totally, great points. Just got me an another and gave it a good scrubby. Also keeping them in the fridge now as that was another tip I've seen. Thanks for sharing!
I drink green juices during the day (which I make from organic produce) and nothing else except water or a herbal tea. Then around 6pm, I eat my only meal of the day - cooked vegan unless it's a very hot summer's day. My health, weight, mind seems to resonate with this regime the best.
What do you spend a week on eating ? It is very expensive even in Costco and Trader Joes. A bag od mix greens is $6.49 organic is hard to come by. as well. Beans lentils rice more affordable 😮
Rosie, you are so needed in this community! I never comment, but I just have to thank you for courageously and unashamedly sharing a balanced view of the vegan/raw lifestyle. I relate to what you have been through in so many ways and your journey is inspiring me on my own healing journey. So many people forget that healing is multi-faceted and I love how you bring so many aspects of that to the table; emotional well-being, nervous-system regulation, nutrition, balance, self-care, etc. Really looking to forward to more content!
Thank you so much, Brinn 🤍 Appreciate you taking the time to reflect and share this, and for your warm words. So multifaceted 💯 Love that you appreciate the holistic-ness and are feeling inspired in the spirit of balanced self devotion. Yay for that🌹🔥
I am old enough to remember when the raw police were out in full force back in the day! oh, that spice isn't raw... or 118 degrees in your dehydrator is too hot... it was endless and absolutely crazy. I'm glad there are so many people who have their own stories now and experience. You are one of the most reasonable voices I've heard in a long time. It's fascinating how eating trends come , go and stay. How society reacts and how social media influenced and changed everything. Fascinating!
I really appreciate your content. I hope you do more videos. Your journey really helps people. There are so many labels out there. We all want to be the healthiest we can. 🌻
i really liked the entire vibe and editing style of this video. i also really let what you were saying about some persons negative views on raw veganism deeply resonate with me. love your channel, super stoked i found it today.
I think is important to pay attention to what your body feels like but also make those anual blood tests. I have experimenting with fully raw, high raw and Dr Goldner green smoothies for years now, while also checking my blood, my mood and my disposition. And, at least for me, what works the best is drinking a big fully packed green smoothie (with lots of green varieties, fruits and supplements for vegans added!) during the day and in the afternoon to have a high raw meal (with salads, cooked or steamed vegetables, potatos, grains and beans). After that I fast. My tests are looking amazing and in general my mental health have improved amazingly. Also, I don't have cravings or feel hungry after the final meal. Being healthy also implies in adapting, changing and experimenting new things, and that's ok. 🌻🌼🏵
That is exactly what I tend to crave! I go for warm water and lemon first thing, a veggie forward juice- about 16 oz next and then a green strong smoothie with blueberries. I want to try spiraling and wheatgrass powder in it too. Then mid afternoon, a rich salad with greens and beans and potatoes. I do well with fasting- nothing but herbal tea or warm water after 5 pm. Start to eat the next morning around 11 am. Its a great schedule!
I just came across your channel today and I’m so glad I did! I love your videos and I hope you keep uploading more videos cuz you have a well grounded and healthy way of thinking and that’s very important in my opinion . Please do a fitness video cuz I would love to see what exercises you prefer. Thank you ! Ps. Greetings from Palm Coast Florida! Yvette
Really enjoyed this video, and love your outlook on honoring your whole self, meeting yourself and your needs where you are at! Learning so much from you 😊
Thanks for your beautiful channel. I like how you are living. My inner guides are always trustworthy. These matcha drinks are very inspiring! Living from the ❤!
I just came across your channel and subscribed. I am motivated to be more raw now that it’s summer. I’d love to see more “What I eat in a day” videos. You’re very inspiring. 😊
Wonderful video, I like to mix it up a little when I need the calories with my high raw vegan eating, by having organic rice and sweet potatoes. Have fun!❤
Thank you for sharing your wisdom. Something I learned that I’d like to impart to you is perhaps changing your cutting board to a wooden one! It avoids accidental consumption of plastics- which can accumulate throughout the year to consuming a lot! 💌
@@AbisolaDamilola5007 Thank ya. Absolutely. This is one is technically "food grade" plastic and made with a blend of flax husk as well. Phasing out and limiting new plastics in the most realistic ways possible over here!
I love you and I love this video! You were made for the long-form content haha I wanted more 😆 I'm joining you for "raw girl summer"! and I appreciate you sharing your honest truth with this diet/lifestyle! You are super inspiring! 💓
These watermelons are gmo petrol odor. Come to Macedonia to try a real red natural rich sugary melon with black seeds to bite them and take nutrients from them too! I ate 5kg a everyday
The US let's corporations play games with our food (I hate it!). Best to shop around at the local farmer's market and to grow some food of your own. I wish I could enjoy some of that watermelon you speak of! The real stuff grown with intention and experience always turns out better!
Thanks for sharing your experience and how you're doing. I love your channel and I'm always inspired by your "what I eat in a day" it always looks so healthy and refreshing! Thanks also for sharing you health journey with us, truly amazing what the power of whole foods can do for us! ps: love your dress - so cute! :) Did you make it?
Thank you for being here 💗 appreciate your words! Truly amazing 💯⚡️ oh thanks so much. It’s real comfy/airy. I did not make it. It’s from a cute boutique near me 🥰💃🏻
I also had a watermelon explode (luckily I had put it outside when it literally started "farting"!) I live in a hot climate and even when I keep melons in the air conditioned house, they go bad pretty quick.
I never fully removed salt, at least not intentionally. I did Bikram yoga throughout my raw journey and always felt good about consuming traces of salts. There may have been very limited salt time frames or unknown phases of abstinence but I generally consume high-quality salt in small amounts. So no adjustment over here.
Great Video, thank you for sharing, I am a 12 years Vegan Lady and I love this Loving Lifestyle, I do Both, have a Wonderful, Sunday, love, Diana Lipski ❤️ You look Beautiful 😍
@@angelsarah79 Oh! This was found at a sweet little roadside fruit stand on the Cali coastline during a roadtrip! A sacred random find. I just googled "watermelon knives" and found this - www.amazon.com/DECHOUS-Extended-Watermelon-Household-Stainless/dp/B0BY75FKCY/ref=asc_df_B0BY75FKCY/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=693770002271&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=2363997837676036886&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9194028&hvtargid=pla-2260907326000&psc=1&mcid=97562ef28dc73718842e962d2a1bf146&gad_source=1 It is quite similar :)
How do you not get sick eating this stuff if you eat raw most of the time? I got so so sick even trying a bowl of steamed carrots and broccoli, with nothing added! My body absolutely said no!! After giving it nourishing fruit for so long, it tells me straight away when I give it anything non-optimum 😅😅
In my experience it was negative thoughts I had about cooked food that makes me feel sick after eating and my microbiome not having the bacteria to digest them. Changing my thoughts to positive ones made all the difference.
@@solfuela1393 Thank you for sharing your experience!! I too had positive thoughts when eating the broccoli and carrots, I totally didn't expect my body to have a reaction. But there we are, it did anyway 😅 I guess it really knows what it wants and doesn't want!! And it's my job to listen when it tells me 🙏
Please can you share more about the topic of mineral deficiency and other deficiencies and do more videos like this one with informations and explications and also your routine/vlog style video? I was looking for a more veggies based approach because I get really tired and sick with lots of carbs 😢
Enjoyed your video! I was wondering if you'd be willing to share if and how you fixed your gumline issues as I had the same problem but would prefer to not get fillings or major dental work. Acidic fruit was most likely the culprit here as well 😮💨
Sorry to hear that, it's so possible to do some good restorative work though, I find through diligence, mindfulness and ditching some dentist dogma. For the record, I had gum line recession long before this lifestyle too, even having had a gum graph. Those acidic fruit sugars sitting on the teeth just exacerbated the existing issue. Firstly, I saw a great holistic-ish dentist and I now have regular cleanings (after 6+ years of not seeing one). Lean into this and get the prevention stuff locked in. I started brushing more frequently after meals (but keep brushing very soft) and use "Boka" toothpastes, which utilize nano-hydroxyapatite - one of the mineral forms that your body uses to build tooth enamel. It is a naturally occurring form of calcium apatite, and it makes up the majority of bone structure in addition to tooth enamel. I leave these on for at least a half hour after brushing before I rinse my mouth. I use a high quality D + K2 intermittently. I floss much more frequently. I use an electric toothbrush. I intermittently utilize mouth washes that contain mineral-building properties, soothing essential oils and Xylitol. Sometimes spend 10 minutes just swishing with peppermint/clove water. People say oil pulling works wonders, I just haven't done it consistently enough (but want to). Have used Living Libations Ozonated Happy Gum Gel for years now. I am more mindful about frequency and duration of food/meals. Creating adequate blocks of time when there is nothing on my teeth, post Boka brushing, has been supportive. I focus on busting my biofilms in certain seasons - at the very least garlic, oregano and onion in abundance are helpful ingredients to consume. I try to turn to deep diaphragmatic breathing often - proper oxygenation is so important for this whole process. General stress reduction if you are a grinder
Totaly raw in Colorado is not a reality. To cold winters . Not great fruits and vegetables do beeing shipped in not ripe. Very expensive. Most raw people live in warm climets. Like Hawaii CA....
If you quit low fat raw vegan then you didn't do it right. The benefits of doing low fat raw vegan are so incredible that you would never abandon it. Unless of course you have unintegrated emotions that require medicating. I've seen it many times before, not doing it right!

I think high raw vs. all raw is a healthier way to go in many ways. And, yes, listening to our bodies is the ultimate path.

LOL 😅 Yes, I've learned to consume them quickly.
Was salt something you had to get used to after eating mostly fruit? and if so, how do you get the body used to eating more salt again.
I never fully removed salt, at least not intentionally. I did Bikram yoga throughout my raw journey and always felt good about consuming traces of salts. There may have been very limited salt time frames or unknown phases of abstinence but I generally consume high-quality salt in small amounts. So no adjustment over here.
