This is the way I intend to eat because I love simplicity, and of course sweet fruits!

Yo ! I'm so excited to have found a 811rv community !!! I thought I was alone in Canada, not so ! Hello to my fellow raw food canucks ! I'm about 90% raw for 4 weeks now (before on/off for two years...). Glad to have found people to share experiences on this most challenging path. I eat raw eggs during cold winter months for Vit D. A tip I learned 4m Fred Patenaude. Today I decided to eat the egg whites cooked and about 10 minutes later started getting a runny nose... That's how fast the body reacts. I'll put it raw in my blended salad next time. Gotta make it work for whatever your circumstances are, right ? I do what I can... lol

Yes, 80/10/10 resonates with me. Especially after I was eating a lot of raw food and thought that anything raw was healthy. then for the first time in my whole life the blood tests showed slightly (very slightly) raised cholesterol. I said, "How is that possible? This has never showed up before raw. After reading 80/10/10 it all made sense and I realized the dangers of the typical raw food diet which is very high is fat. Glad there is a 80/10/10 group here! Thanks!

Rawsborne- How can being a hybridized human all day be healthy?

Explain to me the hybridization of fruit, please- with sources. What is different about them compared to 100 years ago? What is the sugar content now compared to then?

How easy is hybridized sweet fruits digested? How easy are grains digested? What about fats, how well are they digested? When I say digested, I mean utilized also? Is it just sweet fruits that are hybridized? What about greens, have they been hybridized?

I'm saying this only because I would like to be educated, and because I would also like to educate. Teach me something so I shall learn, and you may learn something I can teach...

well have you ever ate wild foods like various berries and even wild carrots they arent very sweet and easy to handle i think mainstream fruit is way over the edge i find it hard to get cucumbers, grapes, and watermelons to ever have seeds even in an organic store, and whenever i do have fruit its the fastest to go it rots and molds very fast, im sorry i just havent read much about 811 but it doesnt seem logical to eat 32 bananas a day if i eat 2 and i feel sick i need a balance and most fruit is unbalanced on the sugar side of things which causes major candida overgrowth and gas from my experiences fruit is too easy digested and bacteria utilize it the fastest so i eat alot more greens, vedgtables and fats generally every time i eat lots of fruit for a couple of days i have to whipe my innards clean with lots of garlic and pau'diarco teas and heavy spicy foods things like that to get rid of the sticky dampers on my immune system until i feel up to awesome again.

candida, lol. Research candida. We constantly have candida in our bodies. Candida feeds on the glucose in our blood to keep it at a good level. When we have too much fat in our blood, glucose absorption is pretty near impossible. (not impossible, but you catch my drift). The candida does what it is meant to do, and eats it, this causes the candida to multiply, because it is a yeast and yeast cells multiply when they eat.

Garlic is an immune killer bro, lol. Garlic is antibiotic, aka ANTI LIFE. Anything that is antibiotic kills off friendly bacteria, especially in the intenstines. The intestines is where 80% of our immune system is.

From the foods you described, it sounds like you A) Don't have a clear digestive system, causing the banana to ferment, or B) do not eat ripe bananas.

Explain to me the imbalance of sugar in fruits? Most of the time, I pick wild fruits, Fruit trees that are over a century old (assuming from size, among other things) and berry bushes that are by the acreage and I've had sweet fruits and tart fruits from all of these guys. Yes, sometimes seedless fruits are man made, but also fruits naturally don't have seeds. This is either from no pollination, or the type of fruit. Some fruits weren't produce seeds for a long time.

Yes fruits do rot quickly. Do you think in the wild we would take food and some how transport it however far away we lived? No, we would eat it right there. Fruits are too easily digested you say? Why is that a bad thing?? Why do you want your food to sit in your stomach, causing more energy to be wasted on digesting it? Wouldn't you rather just get your nutrients and move on? Do you think meat is not easily digested in a carniovers digestive system. (not saying you eat meat, just an analogy)

What do you mean by you "...i eat lots of fruit for a couple of days i have to whipe my innards clean..."? What else are you eating with these fruits? Why do you wipe your "inards" clean.

Fruit is best for the immune system, proven or and over. I don't know why you "have to eat garlic and pau'diarco teas" to get your immune system back?

I'm going to watch this video and comment on it, Ill be back :)
