TV Programme
Hi guys, just incase anyone is interested thought I'd post this. Someone posted about this tv show on the raw uk yahoo group.

As follows...
Get ready to be mocked guys and gals - Channel 4 are putting out a programme at 7.30pm on Friday called Health Food Junkies.
In The Daily Mail's Weekend TV guide it is written: "For increasing numbers of people, food is ceasing to be something you eat and becoming, rather an obsession, even a substitute religion. This film introduces us to some of the most extreme food puritans - the 'raw foodists' who regard their narrowly restricted diet of raw foods as the healthiest on the planet. It is certainly one of the least appetising - and some of the 'raw foodists' also follow a regime you don't really want to see on TV...."
Well there you have people - get ready for some tut tutting from your granny and the folk at work on Monday morning!

Is this a repeat then? I've seen that programme - we come across as a bit mental as it's been edited really badly :)
Unless they're making another one?

Oh I dunno? Maybe it has aired before? I haven't seen it..maybe I shouldn't watch it!

you could watch it for the entertainment value? kate magic comes across the best i think but the journalist woman/voice over person is really condescending and biased I thought :)

Yes, it looks like it's the repeat. That silly music didn't help either.

I think it's fun to watch if you're raw Gail, it's quite unusual to see something of this nature on the TV. It's nice to see Kate and Suki.

I would watch it again too - I've seen it a couple of times cos it's on youtube too.
I recommended all my friends and family watched it before I knew what it was going to be about - oh that was a fun few days after :)

Aw crap, that's not what we need. But forewarned is forearmed so I'll watch it so I can understand what they're saying in case anyone mentions it to me. It's just really unfortunate I'm not exactly a shining beacon of raw health at the moment - I want to be able to prove the benefits by example. Thanks for the heads up!

Lol..I know what you mean to some extent. With losing weight (although I had lost it all since cutting wheat & dairy out anyhow on a cooked diet) and with my eczema flaring up...even though I look, in my opinion, healthier and feel tons healthier!!! I still get negativity from family who are closed minded. Anyhooo, I think for someone who has the health probs that you do, you look b'*ody amazing! ;)

Wow that's got to be tough. I think I would set myself on fire if I had to live with or near either one of my parents. I'm going to try to keep distance from them & keep a diary. Thank you for the support RGG
It hasn't faded any yet, but I've only heard of problems with some of the phosphorus inks and ours don't have any in. But who knows, the approved UV inks have only been out a few years and they're more expensive so not a lot of people take the opt...
Wow, I'd pay to see that

Yeah, he doesn't look like the healthiest 62 year old. Well, at least he seems to look healthy at a glance, but he looks a bit aged for 62, and he seemed to have a stiff jaw or something going on there.

Summer saulting through the air is my favourite move. I sometimes do it mid-conversations when the person I'm talking to is dull.

In Europe, people don't have psychologists, I'm told, they have friends, get me? (I had a friend, she said talking made it worse, with her it sure did, for me anyways, was all we talked about, her issues. I just wanted to do her, had the chance to...
The Krishnamurti stuff seems right up my alley. Thanks for pointing it out.
Thank you AU. You read my mind, I love camomile tea! I'll try to slow things down & keep a diary.
Finn, will it fade over time like most white & pastel color inks?
Group tattoo, that's awesome. I like the camaraderie when someone with a misfit tattoo points to mine.

Ajonus seems to phoney to me. He gives like 5 different reasons on why he choose to eat the way he does. Although he does have some good insight on certain subjects. He comes off as to much of a con IMO.
