I remember that "news" report from a year or two ago... HEAVILY distorted, by the way.
The very skinny boy in it is actually recovering from annorexia, he is using raw veganism to this aim since it has shown to balance body weight(i.e.
if you're fat it'll help you slim down, if you're too thin it helps put on weight).
Though it's a bit deceitful to put that video up in that it claims to be on RAW VEGANISM. They throw the orthorexia nonsense in to make it out to be
a disorder(it isn't, food doesn't grow "cooked", not to mention humans are the only animal that feels the need to burn its food). The woman in
that "report" was NEVER even vegetarian, let alone raw vegan, she was very obsessed with the dietary numbers(callories, fat etc.) of what she ate.
Just because her obsession was with food doesn't make eating food one considers safe somehow mentally unhealthy. She was sick
about what she
ate, not sick
because of what she ate!
That doctor person who made up "orthorexia nervosa"
self diagnosed himself with a new disorder that he just came up with because he felt that
not eating whatever crap everyone else was in a social situation was a problem! I've heard a similar nonsense notion against choosing a
dietary/lifestyle, that essetially said something to the effect of "If you are vegan it is rude to be vegan in front of non-vegan people...because
you will make them feel uncomfortable..."
They also show healthy looking raw vegans in that "report"; yet they attempt to make even them look like obsessed loonies!
For instance it is a fact that some of the raw vegan dishes take days of preperation and planning, HOWEVER those thing involve sprouted seeds.....it
takes more than five minutes for a seed to sprout and grow. Other things that take time are fermenting, dehydrating, and culturing.
Hell! I say almost ALL of modern society is mentally retarted when it comes to food! Not 100 years ago did most everyone bake their own...everything!
Convenience has redused the quality of life.... Most are to stupid(and by both retarded and stupid I mean sincerly, not as a crude insult) to know any
better, they've been so programed that the only kind of work they should do is for their boss...at a "job".
Baking bread from scratch isn't so hard, buying it is a million times easier...'sides my tv show is coming on, not time to cook
