If you were going to invite a speaker to your raw event, realizing that you could easily choose from hundreds of people world wide, what criteria would you consider before tending the invite? In other words, what qualities do you look for, and what concerns might you consider before deciding to put someone on your stage?

I'm happy to say my GI challenge seems to be loving psyllium husk powder. Now I'd like to learn more about sleep. I have never slept through the night and being on raw food I wake and go back to sleep several times through the night. It's anywhere from 2 times a night to every 2 hours. Sometimes I go right back to sleep but at times I'm just not sleepy and I sit and read until I think I can sleep again. Sometimes it's an hour and sometimes it can be half the night. Can others share what their sleep is like since going raw? Let me know age. I am 70 years young. I used to sleep like a rock but going raw has changed everything! Not in a bad way. I still have loads of energy during the day too.

Hey, I wanted to have some opinions and tipps on what I am sharing. Like I told on previous posts, since end of April, I was stopped, definitely, to the point of not being able to walk anymore. So many things had happened, that it was difficult to discern. I had lived so much and was so used to push, that I firstly thought that it was maybe an overtraining, since I had never been able to come back to my level of sport. It turned out, that I was quite strong and that looking sincerely on what I had lived (important traumatism and lots of stress to keep going on since a long time) burnout was more obvious. I couldn’t do anything anymore, i barely could eat sleep, sometimes even taking a shower was to report for the next day. I had different symptoms, extreme fatigue, big hunger (a lot and more often), tachycardia etc September I saw a cardiologist that told me the heart was fine and since getting a little better, that I could walk, even that I had to go back to it. I was so so happy, to me not being able to move was the saddest thing ever, also seeing the body going so low and changing physically when you actually was a sportive person, active, eating fruits and vegetables and still eating the same way, just so much while body asking for it and yeah… So since September I began to walk a little bit, but definitely it takes time. I would say that 3km per day is the average. It depends a lot on my women cycle too. I have the impression that ovulation day and week around it is the moment where I usually feel the most exhausted like terrible. But yeah, that is a lot of things, all of this to say that, it was getting better, espacially October I would say. But November felt though! Also due to stress, financial problems and emotionally with all of this and more unbalance came again. I had a shiatsu session where, while I had had my breakfast, I had a sudden low sugar and had to eat refined sugar till going home. And from this point, I had to eat every so frequently. I have a friend that I met not long ago, that also eat 8/1/1, that had experienced adrenal fatigue some years ago, before knowing about 811 that had cured with a grazing method, that meant eating every 1,5 to 2 hours, having in each meal glucose, sodium and potassium, more concretely fruit alongside with lettuce or celery / or potato with salad and lemon juice. This with I think some supplements.

Hey everybody, I have a question about variety importance. I have always been on a budget, but since some difficulties now, it will be even more the case. The thing is that I really want to continue with this diet, I find it even more important to recover now, but I will have to do some more calculs. And I am questioning myself about variety importance. I was trying calculating some different shopping lists and definitely having more bananas is making things cheaper. But I was asking myself if it would be a problem to have for exemple half of my calories coming from bananas for 2-4 months from now? Completing with other seasonal fruits and celery, lettuce and other fruits/veggies? Or if more variety is necessary? I am definitely on a moment of needing nutrition, my body still asks for more calories than I actually move, so I don’t want to compromise my health. But I thought that having more bananas with grapes, pomegranate, persimmon, pear, tangerines, apples, mangoes and still big salads with nuts and seeds from time to time could be an idea, what do you think? I also checked at some associations to maybe get some free things left, or discount products. But yeah no other solution for now like bulk etc. Thx for the reading, looking forward to hear from you ⭐️

I have a cheap Oyster brand blender and I use it to blend my Avocado and lime dressing for my big salad for the day. Not sure if it'd be a good one to make smoothies or not but wanted to ask and get suggestions for blenders that would be better especially for chopping up lettuce too. Making and eating my daily salads takes me about 1.5 hours so on days I don't want to spend that much time I was thinking of making a vegetable smoothie. Typically on salad I will do lettuce green or red, hemp seeds, avocado and lime dressing, carrots, red onion, celery, then I'll have one other topping usually cucumber or tomato. Not saying I want to use all of that for a smoothie but just wondering what would taste good. So please provide recipe suggestions if you have any? Thanks. I could add some fruit but I do not want to add any fruit that would make for improper food combining but if that fruit works good with fat like avocado or even nuts or seeds then that'll be fine. I also want to say that I am on a 2500 calorie diet 80/10/10 raw vegan and I'm doing it very simply doing one big salad a day then lots of fruits throughout day. I'm not dehydrating anything nor do I really eat nuts only seeds right now. I'm 6'4.5" and currently weigh 178 and I'm constantly in gym working with Personal Trainer through an App called Kickoff. I am trying to get closer to 170lb so I am working on losing some more body fat before I go to get another Dexafit Testing for BMR, V02 Max, and Body Scan. I've been weightlifting for over a year now working on building muscle and losing fat trying to work towards 10% body fat. If you prefer to offer me your Coaching services those coaches out there then let me know how you can help me via Zoom strategy call or whatever. If you're not a 80/10/10 coach then a recipe suggestion or more than one would be great. Thank you all
