Getting into scorpion in forearm pose is one of my goals. Need to get to forearm stand first. It's been a fun first year with yoga!

I find it amazing that some people have taken things that I have incorporated in my diet.
The best thing I found in the market is called sunwarrior (someone alreday mentioned it above) raw, sprouted protein powder. It is rather chulky if you have ...

Profile Information
- About Me:
- My name is Aleks. I'm in my second year of medical school and am looking forward to the day when I become a practicing physician so that I can teach every one of my patients how closely linked diet is to mental and physical health. I've been raw since October of 2006 with occasional relapses. Hippocrates said that physicians should be in good health for their patients to trust them. As a clear eyed, clear skinned, fit and energetic raw foodie, I hope to inspire my patients by setting the best example of health I possibly can. Aside from that, I'm pretty normal. I own and cherish a 1969 MG Midget, play guitar, do yoga, surf when I'm in Humboldt, backpack when I'm in the Sierras, paint, sketch, and read.
- How can the community best support you in your journey? (moral support, transition advice, fitness tips, etc)
- By being there. Sometimes it gets lonely as a raw foodie in a cow town like Sacramento.
- Relationship Status:
- Single
- Favorite Raw Food or Recipe?
- kale chips, Kale Chips, KALE CHIPS. I have a need to go crunch
- Interests (outside of Raw Food):
- Reading (Frost and Neruda are my favorite poets, Dostoevsky and Gabriel Garcia Marquez my favorite novelists, and Gore Vidal, Richard Dawkins, and Christopher Hitchens my favorite rationalists), acoustic guitar, MG cars and culture, yoga, medicine, backpacking, gardening, happiness
- Favorite Books or Authors:
- One Hundred Years of Solitude, Way of the Peaceful Warrior
- Favorite Quote:
- If you want happiness for an hour, take a nap; for a day, go fishing; for a year, inherit a fortune; and for a life, help someone.

Frances Boughen said… - Hello rawprimate here :) you sent a video link (?) but my internet won't play video streams currently. is there a link I could investigate to read what this Buddhist monk says? I delved into Buddhism last year as a way of helping a search for enlightenment and, amongst other things, as well as turning 100% raw this year, it assists in the accomplishment of seeing things in different perspectives. focusing especially on suffering - in it's mental and physical state - ; taking it and using it in every crevice of your being, you begin to turn all these paradoxes around. I have a lot to say; I go really deep into this ...(: How's your raw going? I'm kinda constantly on a detox...this way I push myself to far reaches and really determine what the body can do (especially as I go running). Peace, amigo!

How do the peeps at medical school respond to your raw lifestyle?

- Can I even tell you how smiley I am that I found you? Seriously. I am a RAW food virgin...well, more like, not exactly a virgin, (grin) just ridiculously inexperienced.
My main issue with Raw is that I have 3 lil' boys and I want them to live the same lifestyle as I am learning...but you are the 1st Raw man that I've "met" that doesn't look emaciated to me. Please, please teach me what you do, so that I can raise my boys to look healthy as you!

Thank you!! I have never actually had a doctor who was healthy-looking! EVER. They were either obese (most of them were obese) or they were sickly-looking in some other severe way! I don't go to doctors anymore. No offense hehe . I was tired of going to them and telling me they don't know what is wrong with me, which they have done for my whole life ha ha. <3@u

That is a good point Angus. I have found that a lot of fundamentalist religions accuse everyone else of worshiping the devil and it like a blind hysteria- like all these other people have a black bible in their house and secretely worship a statue...
