Sun protection and natural hygiene
Hello everybody, I have a question about sun protecting. Some days ago, I heard a long term raw vegan, talking about regretting non having used sun protection products for years. I was wondering what other raw vegans were doing. Personally, I am mixed and I tan easily, so I never was really worried about it. I would mostly put some sunscreen for the first hot day in swimwear and then only on my face or sometimes even not just protecting my face with a hat when sunbathing or hiking. On the mountain when hiking I would sometimes put on some sunscreen too or when traveling and going to the beach. But I never had the occasion to experience tropical sun during the summer, so more intense one, to really worry. But yeah, now I ask myself questions and I would be grateful for sharings.

Hypoglycemia
Hi everyone, I have been following to the 80-10-10 lifestyle since June 2025. The worse splurges for me are nori sheets when I crave a little “denser” foods but otherwise I’ve been following it strictly. I’m saying this just to define further my 80-10-10 lifestyle, as sometimes it's hard to tell what a person does or does not eat even when claiming NH adherence. I have an issue I'd like feedback/help with. It seems like about 1/4th of days I get hypoglycemic by about 11 am, yet I eat about 800-900 kcal in fruits for breakfast regularly, whether its melon, or papaya, or mangoes, or banana smoothie with berries. Im 4'11 so i consider my necessary caloric intake to be around 2000kcal/day, but have been eating slighly more lately given im wanting to gain weight. This phenomenon never happens in the afternoon. Prior to making the change to 811rv I was still eating pretty close to this diet however i had fats such as avocados and nuts or seeds with my fruits for breakfast and a cooked meal for dinner, but was 100% vegan with lots of raw and cooked. vegetables. No dairy + gluten for over 20 years. It is fairly annoying, completely disrupts work as I can't think clearly or speak fluidly until i eat something. Even drinking water, a bunch of it, doesn't help. Eating more for breakfast doesn’t prevent the issue. I’d like to ask others if this has happened or is happening to them, as for me, i didn't use to struggle with this before I became a frutarian. Also, any advice appreciated. Thank you!

Hello Nellie, Can I ask you how often do you eat per day? At which hour do you usually eat in the morning? And if you do things like intermittent fasting? Like I already shared, I personally experienced having to eat more often since burnout+ more stress. From my experience and having exchanged with some people and read/watched some things, especially about the adrenals, it seems that when stressed sugar and glycogen reserves don’t function the same. I can only share about my experience, but for me after an important trauma that lead to constant panick for months, I had to begin eating breakfast when waking up or in the train going to school, when prior to that, I would only eat it after a workout or going for a walk or before a workout if going for a long run. (And of course when I was hungry, but I usually wasn’t as soon as waking up). So yeah since this trauma that lead to months of extreme stress and other problems like insomnia etc, I was waking up hungry. Sometimes even if eating clementines in the train around 7 am at 10 am I would feel to go to the store next to university and buy some persimmons or other fruits during the break prior my next lesson. So yeah definitely it was very different from what I used to experience before. I have also seen different things about women being way more sensitive to stress and it impacting the body. And then I had this hypoglycemia that I made a post about, and now I experience appetite super super often even during the night, I wake up hungry and right before in the dream, really often, I was in a situation where I was looking for fruits and feeling I had to eat rapidly. So yeah idw what to say except that I would est as often as I feel hungry. Last thing, personally, I don’t think that it has to do with 811. At least for me. I now have to eat some potatoes for budget reasons and things are not better. To the opposite, I experience other symptoms. Personally, for years I consumed coffee and espacially more coffee when I would feel tired, and smoke a bit etc. I just think that when we suppress all the stimulants we really feel the impact of what we live and force our body through lack of sleep, stress etc
Celery alternatives?
Where I live, celery is pretty much inedible in summer. I feel like its a crucial component of the raw vegan diet, and I'm not really sure what to do without it. any suggestions?

I don’t know if it was bad, but I would say that my first 2 raw vegan years, I was mostly consuming greens as lettuce, spinach, chard +other vegetables like beet for exemple, but yeah, I was eating celery rarely. Form what I remember reading in 8/1/1 calories should come from 2 to 6% from leafy greens and celery. I did not understood it as a specific need. But is it? Now I do consume it way more often and at the beginning and just before my burnout I could eat a bunch just for lunch with my fruits, I was craving it so so much. And to continue what Thibaut was saying, especially when sweating a lot, running or so, I would be more attracted to melon, papaya too etc
Winter problem
This is my first Winter following 811rv (started in June 2025). This is also my first winter dealing with a strange issue. Starting around November I started experiencing finger swelling and pain at night. I travelled to CA for 12 days and the condition totally resolved. However, after being back for about a week it started again. It lasted till I traveled south again. I stayed in CA one week, then went to HI, then Guam, and then two weeks in Ecuador. Once I came back, the fingers started swelling and later on fissuring within a week of being back. My father is insisting that I increase my fat intake , suggesting cor liver oil, claiming that it has always been part of the diet of northern climate dwellers. I want to stay true to 811rv but I find it strange that this wasnt an issue in previous years. If anyone has any suggestions I’m opened to hearing them. The swelling mostly affects my fifth fingers of both hands, and now it’s starting to affect my middle one.

I never experienced something like you share here Nellie, bur it makes me think of something I had on my lips, coming back from Italy. One of my friend had told me the name « conflit d’éloignement rapprochement ». I can’t give you references because she actually herself heard it from one of her friend interested in somatic etc. I make the link because you talk about traveling a lot. Hope it can help!
Angular cheilitis
I've had more episode of angular cheilitis since starting my raw 811 journey in June 2025 than ever before. And they're painful! I hear its caused by nutrient deficiency (B2, B12, zinc..?) and/or bacterial/fungal infection. So in a diet that supposedly provides all we, humans, need, why is this happening so much more frequently? I can barely open my mouth with those painful fissures...

@Nellie Nadeau It’s not at the early beginning, and just a precision, *connected to the lack of green consumption
