Thank you for replying everybody. Things have been slowly progressing. Through some advice I started trying intermittent fasting where I only feed for 4 hours a day and the results have been even more dramatic. To your health!

Hello everyone. I've been fighting sciatica for over 20 years now. It's possible that I have stenosis or arthritis. Since going plant based it has improved. I went raw for a week once and I remember the pain significantly reducing. What's interesting is that sometimes I get an onset of pain for...

Really cool. Thank you for that.

Update: I feel much better. Between taking a B12 supplement and switching to iodized salt I feel waaaay better. I wish I did one at a time to really find out which is the culprit but I'm glad I'm back to normal. Thanks again everyone.

Everybody. Thank you for chiming in. I really appreciate it. Unfortunately, all of a sudden I'm not feeling very good. For the last 2 days I've been feeling just a little nauseous and light headed. There's also a little bit of mucus in my nose. I have low energy and sometimes feel light chills...

During my fast I tended to have a little down time so I started reading articles about breaking the fast and it sort of transitioned to raw diets and it's Covid so I thought what the heck. Let's try this while I have the time to focus on it and develop some new eating habits. So I'm definitely...

Thanks. I actually gave in to potatoes, beans, and rice. But it was fun to do it for a month and I'll continue to be 80-90% raw.

Don't discuss it at all if possible. Sometimes we feel as vegans like we're chosen disciples and should preach the word every chance we get. But no one likes to be preached to about anything. I've been asked why I go vegan by one person within a group of people and I realized they're doing that...

Hi Everyone. I've been vegan for 2 years but I was one of those extremely unhealthy vegans where I continued to eat processed foods like potato chips, fake meats, and white flour pasta as the majority of my diet. At the beginning of this year I water fasted for 7 days and then decided to go raw...

Has anybody ever healed their bone spurs or maybe found a reduction in pain after going vegan?

I watched too many vids by very good salesman

I have gone through the internet and I can't find one person saying it got rid of a cavity. There's stuff like it made my teeth whiter or my teeth feel better but nothing from one single person saying it cured my cavity.

I know this post is old but I finally went to the optometrist to see what was going on. I have a slight astigmatism in my right eye. However, no macular degeneration or anything to worry about. I still need reading glasses though. GRRR

Has anybody tried oil pulling? I know this forum is more about diet but I'm a little desperate. My dentist told me I need a root canal but that my insurance wouldn"t pay for it. Thought I'd get busy and oil pull for a couple months. I can honestly say that I've had success with oil pulling in...

My eyesight started going south about 5 years ago. It's not terribly bad but I just need readers for reading. I have been vegan for 8 months now and I was hoping to see an improvement in my eyesight but it's pretty much stayed the same. However, I will say that my diet hasn't really changed much...

I'm curious if anyone out there who has been diagnosed with ADHD has experimented with a vegan diet. Since going vegan 3 months ago one of the biggest changes I have experienced is how calm I have become. I also don't feel like I deal with anxiety as much. What's also interesting is that I don't...

Thanks

Sorry you had to deal with that. It's very easy for someone with anger issues to vent it out on the internet then in real life. To this day I still have to deal with the jokes and victimization from my own "liberal" friends about being vegan. They still make jokes because they are...

I hear ya. I was at a Mexican place not too long ago and I ordered rice and beans to go. When I got home I noticed they made a mistake and gave me refried beans instead of the pinto beans I had requested. I know refried beans are made with butter, oil, or animal lard but I ate them anyway in a...

Thank you very much for your post. I am the type of person that wants something to change NOW, so I do forget that it's only been a couple months and I'm still going through a bit of a transition. I remember the first two or three weeks of the diet where I was feeling cruddy. I knew then that it...
