**update ... now live in a small town of Ohio called Hillsboro.
Well ... i grew up in baltimore, maryland, on the standard american diet ... i got a pretty rough start with the diet, being poor, etc. etc. ... i got into swimming my senior year of college, which allowed me to open up out of my hermitish shell ... and one day i met a vegetarian who just shined brighter than the sun to me ... her positive energy changed my life! ... she vanished from my life pretty quickly, but left me something wonderful ... i started eating foods i had never heard of, or thought i would like ... and developed a craving for plants of all sorts ... then, after getting out of college and the military, i wound up traveling a bit ... i've lived in japan for over a year, georgia, florida, texas, mississippi, back to maryland, and now live in california ... somewhere along the way i found raw foods through a website, and was off and on the raw food diet from 2003-2005 ... then in 2005 i was 100% raw and vegan for about 1 year ... then i went 80% raw and 20% anything for a bit ^^; ... and in 2008 i went 100% raw again, but not vegan ... and i have been raw ever since ... i love meeting other 100% raw foodists and would love to meet anyone that is :) ... i am not vegan so i don't fit the standard raw food group, but most of what i eat is fruit, then nuts, then raw egg yolk, then raw fish and salads .... i'm currently trying to add more leaves and roots to my diet ... i workout 3 days per week, but i'm thinking about also changing that routine as well to something a bit more natural (can't wait to go full force into swimming again) ... if you would like to ask me for some advice about the raw food diet, feel free ... i have had experience with most types and 6+ years of experience with it :D ... and if you want to trade pictures, words, video, etc. etc. just let me know :)

Hey Nicolas,
A short (water) fast will certainly allow your body to heal itself fastest, and I would say is far better than treating the symptom, which may make you feel better, but will almost always interfere with proper healing.
Good luck! Na...

P.S. I have a hard time sleeping without some nightcap food too. I was addicted to bananas and almond butter before bed, but I'm trying to phase it out by freezing bananas in the morning and then making raw ice cream at night.
Banana peach coconut smoothie for breakfast, then
3 Collard wraps with spicy mango salsa, avocado, onion, cilantro, sprouts, and sauteed portabello mushroom. Amazing.
Now I'm contemplating dinner. Might treat myself to Que Seraw Seraw in Burlinga...
P.S. Yogi, When my body is in an unwanted condition like ill or overwhelmed I also ask it "What do you need to get well or fix that condition?" Watch closely for it's FIRST THOUGHT and don't invalidate it. Then do whatever you please of course-you...
