In the summer, I seem to test well for about 70% raw and in the colder months for 50%. It shifts as I shift. I don't eat much cold food- even smoothies I eat at room temp. Even room temp raw foods can still have a cool nature but spices or combini...

I went to see a TCM naturopath in June, having been 811 since February. My results were quite startling; but I didn't take her words for gospel until about a month ago. She told me that my blood sugar was all over the place, hence my highs and low...

Thanks for your comments CheL, That is really interesting. Have you seen the TCM practitioner since starting 811? Or know anyone else who has? I am really interested in the effects of 811 on the body. Hx

Hi Haley!
I was able to help my yin deficiency by eating a lot of yin foods (according to the book "Healing With Whole Foods" by Paul Pitchford) and by taking Dragon Herbs Sho Wu formulation for a number of months. I had to completely stay away from any warming spices or spicy foods during that time in order to protect the yin, so I couldn't work on my spleen during that because many spleen herbs can injure yin if yin is already low.
Now I am working on my spleen and blood, taking another formula (Dragon Herbs Ginseng Longan) which is a spleen-heart tonic that builds blood. It's too early for me to tell if it's working.

I did find that it was just impossible for me to be 100% raw and tonify my spleen (since the spleen needs energeticaly warm and temperature warm/dry foods) so I do a mix of raw and cooked. I also found it necesary to add more animal foods, though you may not need to do this. I was severly kidney depleted yin AND yang) and when you get to that state, you need the big guns, LOL!

So, I'm still "under construction" so to speak, but my TCM practitioner did warn me that it might take up to two years to get normal.

You wanna both snowboard and ski? You usually have to stick to one if you want to master it. Not saying you can't do both, but maybe wait until you got the hang of it before switching up.
