100% Raw Vegan Trial Completed
My 30 day 100% raw vegan trial has been successfully completed three days ago and I am still raw. I am happy that I took this challenge because I now know that I could easily live long term exclusively on raw food, and my prediction is that in the nearby future I will switch to exclusively raw food. For now I will allow myself to eat up to 5% or even 10% of processed food and re-compare benefits, needs, satisfaction and performance. I am not rushing to try non-raw food yet because after this trial it seems that I had a personality shift, cooked food is no longer something that belongs to my personality, it’s alien. Another reason is that I am scared that I will loose my strong appetite for raw food – this trial has sharpened it significantly. If small amounts of cooked food will lower the taste of raw food that I eat in large quantities then the decision is clear. Raw food gives better results. Non-raw food can taste very good, it feels good before, during and short after eating, but after that it feels in the stomach like a plastic, cardboard or wood. Raw food also can be appealing and taste nice while eating, but the best of all is that it fells good all the time, whether it is a few hour, days or months afterwards. I feel pride even for the raw food I ate one year ago, I am happy that it was assimilated into my body expelling less beneficial matter. The entire trial went easier than I thought, mainly because I am not exposed to cooked vegan food, no temptation no cravings. For animal food I feel strong disgust, I avoid even being nearby it. During the trial I felt fine, the biggest change was the improved appetite, I ate more than normal, and unfortunately I didn’t gain any weight, perhaps I even dropped a pound – that’s no good I need my precious pounds, I would invite a few of them with pleasure. Mental clarity and awareness stayed at same level or just slightly higher, there was no enlightenment except a nice after-dream on the 29-th day of the trial. Just after I woke up on that day I still remained in the deep alpha state for few seconds and it felt like I was moving from one dream into another. It felt very real that the real world is not real. 
There was a bit of sadness in that because it felt like everything in my life, all the memories, worries and the entire experience of a “real” world was just a dream and I will inevitably move there in seconds finding myself in a regular awareness mode. Small change from about 95% raw to 100% and small results (except the taste), but I feel great and proud that I can live 100% raw. In few weeks I will post my experience with non-raw food.
