UV, Have you done a video yet about unhealthy weight being encouraged by some of these gurus? It's really disturbing to me how thin they are, and how there's very little subcutaneous fat on their bodies. Young women are watching them, and I just think it's a terrible model to set. My niece brought up a good point - that our society focuses too much on how a person *looks* and not their actual health. You would really impact so many in a positive way if you did this. Young women and girls need to hear that a *healthy* body is most important. Not being a certain weight.

I think eating such a low fat raw diet may make a lot of people feel better, because of the omega 3/ 6 ratio. After looking up vegan foods with high Omega 3 to Omega 6, I was surprised at the amount of fruits/ veggies that have a decently higher Omega 3 to 6, to almost equal amounts. So eating an abundance of mango, banana, spinach, and Chia pudding almonds sparingly, could contribute to feeling better.

I personally think that raw food veganism is a kind of orthorexia. That said, you could emphasize raw foods and still cook the foods that would benefit from cooking, like beans etc.

No, buddy. A raw vegan diet is 75% of your food by weight raw. The 25% remaining CAN BE cooked and you will still be eating a raw diet BY DEFINITION. That was UV´s mistake, apparently. not realizing or poinitng that out. MAkes a a world of difference. I think maybe Fully Raw Kristina help spread this misconcept because she is the most famous raw vegan and she is, I think, 100% raw. But that´s her (kinda radical) aproach. There is also the high raw diet which is 50 to 74% raw food. So the idea you must eat 100% raw is kinda crazy, indeed, but it´s not by definition, what a raw vegan diet is. Check out Brenda Davis´ presentation on raw diet myths. Best regards.

Have seen some of Raw Kristina videos and it amazes me the amount of money she must spend to eat that much fresh fruit every day. Not something the average working vegan could do or should do.

I love when you talk against the raw food diet. Your experience with raw food diets makes it more interesting.

Yes!!! Kate is my girl, I’m almost fully vegan now (down to 1-2 meals w/dairy a month) and she’s the first person I ever watched on KZread that convinced me to look into veganism more. I absolutely love her attitude and the fact that she has always said that she is raw because that’s just what feels best to her and isn’t what feels best to everyone. She actually has a “how to go vegan” ebook that she just released that has a ton of cooked food for people who want to make the jump to veganism, and she will eat cooked food every once in awhile. You and Kate have very different channels but I think both of you are excellent representations of what a healthy vegan diet can be.

It’s easy to be on a raw food diet. Just lie about what you ACTUALLY end up eating. I knew a woman, some years back, who worked at a west coast raw food center. Part of her job involved discarding the empty pizza boxes and candy wrappers. The help always knows what’s really going on.

@Mark Aguilera eating raw is just unnecessarily restrictive. Most people who do it aren't going to benefit from it. The way you eat isnt going to change thousands/millions of years of evolution. If it makes you happy, do it, but theres no reason to give it grand claims or to treat it almost like a religion. Eating vegan is better for the environment and the main purpose is to prevent unnecessary animal suffering so what makes raw special?

For me the “raw till 4“ has been working great for the last 4 years. I don’t follow the calorie or fat intake ratios at all, but just simply that I eat raw fruits and veggies for breakfast and lunch and a cooked dinner. The only reason I do this is because I feel so nice and light and energized. It works great for me. I get my blood work done annually and my doctor is always very happy. However, I would never tell anyone else how to eat. We all have different methods that work best for each of us. That’s the beauty of food!

I love raw broccoli. I eat it cooked occasionally, but prefer it raw. The stems are my favorite part. I have ulcerative colitis and it's actually one of the foods that I can eat without pain or problems. Everyone is different though. Can't eat anything with gluten without pain though. So I'm vegan and gluten free.

I get my blood tested every 6 months. My results were almost exactly the same on a cooked vegan diet that I was on for three years, and a raw Vegan diet that I've been on for a little over a year now, however they have improved slightly. My hemoglobin is 13.8, cooked it was 12.2. Iron is 25.2 on cooked it was 20. 8. Transferrin was 2.3 on cooked which is on the low side and now is 3.2. My b12 is slightly higher also at 511.5 pmol/l when it was 480.5 pmol/l. I don't take supplements! So it all depends what works for you. Personally I prefer eating raw I feel way better.

I’d advise just picked a pretty normal week day and inputting those foods to find if you are generally healthy enough rather than doing this every single day

Really cool video. I like Kate a lot and I appreciate your nutritional break downs because they take a lot of time! The only thing I'll say is I believe Kate is pretty light, between 100 and 110 pounds, so with the 0.8g/kg she would need 40g protein daily and her 63g is nearly 1.3g/kg (assuming Kate is 110lbs) which I would estimate is plenty even when considering the reduced bioavailability in raw foods. I'll admit we don't cover that much in my classes though. Also there is an upper limit for many of the B vitamins despite the fact that they are water soluble and exceeding that upper limit regularly can result in permanent nerve damage so b complex supplements can be concerning to me. -RD to be (senior in B.S. dietetics program)

Without a doubt, cooking was such an enormous jump of technology that has greatly increased the nutrition and nutritional accessibility of so so many different foods. Raw food diets aren't by necessity inferior nutritionally, but I think it's for most people unnecessary. Great video

You can still have a raw diet and eat a protein bar, processed vitamin/ supplement pills, protein powder, or steamed greens with olive oil for 1 of your meals. There is no need to go 100% raw - that's a cult, not a diet. Some tips that helped me when I was raw vegan: you can still prep food in advance like Swayze says she likes. Just make chilled soups such as gazpacho, watermelon soup, etc. You can also make big batches of salads, fruit salads, salsas, guac etc and save for a few days by using ascorbic acid (vitamin C) as a preservative. For example, just squeeze lemon juice on and you'll see it preserves the bright color and flavor, too. Lastly, be careful with nuts in general bc you can get too many trace minerals and poison yourself, e.g., only eat 1-2 brasil nut per day

Do you have a link or chart resource which breaks down the essential vitamins and minerals, as well as the common foods which contain them?

Actually I was going to ask you if you could make a video on it when I saw it yesterday because I thought it was pretty cool to see a raw foodist with that kind of diet (even though I also think that raw veganism is kind of pointless). Ps:She is not a strict raw vegan that's why she do not care that some things are not 100% she just "feel better" eating raw foods🤷🏽‍♀️

So glad raw is not the only way to be vegan! I just love variety.

It's so odd that people only seem to obsess with such *specific* vitamins and minerals when dealing with vegans and especially raw foodists. It's like it makes people feel good to say "HA! I knew there was something missing in your diet!"... I'm sure the AVERAGE American is deficient in several things.

I love Kate's recipes. I'm so glad you incorporated her recipes...

Hi UV! If you can choose between raw vegan diet or keto vegan diet, what would you think is healthier?

I'm not UV, but I'd guess she'd say raw based on her videos. She's mentioned several times that ketosis is not healthy for most people, and while raw lacks nutrients it isn't unhealthy in and of itself. I'd suggest a whole food vegan diet if you want to be healthy :)

KETO now lose wheight then raw vegan

She's my fav!!! She created some of my favorite dressing recipes!! And inspired me to eat wayyy more healthy fats and greens. Seriously love her videos she has such a good grasp of how to make good food

What do you use to see how many vitamins the meals get? Is there a website you input this in? Sorry if it’s in the description already it didn’t seem like any of the links were?

My fav smoothie is 300grams of banana, 120 grams spinach, 2 table spoons of chia seeds, 1 table spoon of hemp, 1 table spoon of chlorella and my freshly made almond milk. Gets me through a busy day till lunch. If you change it all up every day and use cronometer I think a raw vegan diet is very healthy. If you compare it to the majority then I think it is safe to say you are doing fine :)

About the B vitamins not giving you a boost in energy, that's not nessecarily true. I take a vitamin B12 supplement every morning (even though I'm not deficiënt in B12 at all) and I do feel extremely tired if I forget to take it in the morning. I guess it just depends on your situation..

I have been eating completely raw vegan expect... one thing.. hummas. I just can’t give it up. I don’t know why. I don’t think it’s unhealthy though, so I’m okay with it. The rest of my diet is raw and has been for almost a year.

Sea salt is naturally iodized, which is why kelp contains it, so unless it has been deiodized it has iodine

Kate Flowers

Just wondering, do you track that you are getting all of the nutrients you need with your diet?

I love that this is critical but doesn't personally attack her. You have been able to systematically break down her meals but not break down her character. I respect that. I love kate as well, i feel like she is real and her meals are actually achievable.

I don't agree with borderline Christina either, but, Swayze, stoppppppp!!!! FRUIT IS GOOD. FRUIT FEAR IS STUPID.

A totally sugar diet ! Just crazy I ate like that for 11 yrs and nuts and seeds have oxalates in them as well . I drank 64 oz of green juice no problem . I even got Certified as a chef . No more done with that crazy eating .

Something I like about Kate is that she always tries to keep things balanced, for what I've seen. And she's honest about not always eating a raw diet. I have her e-book and although I'm not vegan, the info on it is incredibly well rounded and helpful.

Have been waiting for this video for so long! I follow both you and Kate and while I'm not raw, or vegan yet...you both talk about things in an inclusive and factual way.

I'm already vegan, and raw veganism appeals to my laziness, but not my wallet

Awesome video. The only thing I am not sure of is the cyanocobalamin form of B12, bc I learned that the methyl form is far better. I guess I will continue researching

What's your opinion on chia seeds...I've heard they can cause issues if consumed in large quantities but still they provide enough omega 3. Is it true?

You had a video awhile ago saying Kristina had “puffed up” due to her eating so many nuts and seeds. I’m confused.

UV in a video where she's criticising someone for not supplementing: Why would you wait till you were deficient? UV in this video: Why would you supplement unless you were deficient?

That was about B12 though. Vegans don't get it in their diet so they have to supplement. Why supplement vitamins that you get more than enough of from food?

If you have to eat all these supplements and protein powder etc. Isn’t that pretty clear sign this might not be the most natural diet? Veganism I get because of environmental and animal rights etc but does it have to get this complicated

i’m not raw vegan but i definitely won’t stray away from raw recipes if they look good. i don’t doubt it healthy i just love having a warm comforting dinner too much.

What app/website are you using for your calculations? It looks super cool and full of information!

You are about as obsessed with protein as any meat-eater I've ever heard...

2:17 You don't know what you're talking about. While the diet you describe may well be deficient in some nutrients, it won't be deficient in calcium. The main cause of calcium deficiencies in the majority of modern diets (not necessarily vegan) is that they heavily rely on grains (cereals) as primary staple, and cereals are very poor calcium sources. The more cereals you eat, the less calcium you 're going to end up taking: _"It is not yet clear whether the adoption of agriculture eased or increased human workloads; skeletal indicators of physical stress do not show definite trends at this stage of human experience (42, 70, 71). However, agriculturists did obtain less calcium from their diets (72) after grains (poor calcium sources) (Table 7) became major staples. For example, as maize became an important dietary constituent in prehistoric North America there were multiple temporally related adverse effects on health (73), including an increase in osteoporosis (72, 74; DA Nelson, unpublished observation, 1985). Nelson (unpublished observations, 1985) compared the bone mineral content and cortical thickness of Archaic hunter-gatherers (living 6000 y ago) with the corresponding characteristics of transitional maize agriculturists (~1250 AD) in Illinois and Michigan. The hunter-gatherers had denser, thicker bone and experienced less bone loss with age than did the agriculturists."_ - Eaton SB and Nelson DA. *”Calcium in evolutionary perspective.”* _Am J Clin Nutr (1991) vol. 54 (1 Suppl) pp. 281S-287S_ sci-hub. tw/10.1093/ajcn/54.1.281S ajcn.nutrition. org/content/54/1/281S.long ncbi.nlm.nih. gov/pubmed/2053574 According to the following paper, the daily intake of typical pre-agricultural diets (excluding the Eskimo diet and the like), was about 1,600 mg Ca/day: • Eaton SB and Konner M. *"Paleolithic nutrition.

Adult animals and humans fed a high phosphorus diet, particularly one in which the calcium content is low, exhibit mild hypocalcemia, secondary hyperparathyroidism and an increased rate of bone resorption. It is of interest, therefore, that Mazess and Mather (1974:916-925) and Pawson (1974:369-380) observed an unusually high rate of aging bone loss among Eskimos of northern Alaska. Further, a high protein intake is known to produce calciuria. To what extent, if any, the accelerated rate of of bone resorption observed in aging Eskimos is attributable to their high protein, high phosphorus, low calcium diet is unknown."_ - Draper HH. *"The aboriginal Eskimo diet in modern perspective."* _American Anthropologist (1977) vol. 79 (2) pp. 309-316_ onlinelibrary.wiley. com/doi/10.1525/aa.1977.79.2.02a00070/full jstor. org/stable/673842 _"There was one hunter-gatherer population in whom the prevalence of osteoporosis was high, higher even than that observed in present-day Americans. Both male and female Inuit (Eskimos) developed bone mineral loss earlier than did industrialized Westerners and the loss occurred at a faster rate so that the severity of osteoporosis in older traditional Inuit was pronounced (75, 76). Like Natufians, Cro-Magnons, and Archaic Amerindians, the Inuit lifestyle required considerable physical exertion; furthermore, all these groups had diets that provided a great deal of protein and phosphorus. However, as opposed to the other population groups for whom high calcium consumption is likely, the calcium intake of aboriginal Inuit was probably low (77). Unlike Cro-Magnons living in Ice-Age Europe, Eskimos lived in high-latitude, circumpolar habitats and as a result their access to plant foods was severely restricted. Their calcium sources are postulated to have included seasonally available berries, moss, and buds, but came mainly from chewing small bones and eating the gastric and intestinal contents of game animals (78). The amount of calcium obtained from these sources is unknown, probably limited, and quite likely insufficient to maintain bone health in older Inuit despite their continuing high levels of physical activity."_ - Eaton SB and Nelson DA. *"Calcium in evolutionary perspective."* _Am J Clin Nutr (1991 Jul) vol. 54 (1 Suppl) pp. 281S-287S_ sci-hub. tw/10.1093/ajcn/54.1.281S ncbi.nlm.nih. gov/pubmed/2053574

Hey :). Is it possible for you to do a video focusing on nutrients and supplements?

Hello! What is the app or website she uses to display the macro nutrients and micronutrients?

Do you think you could do a review on this brand called Bee Harmony? Their supposed go be this bee friendly honey brand. Are they really though??!

Hey boo❤️❤️ love your videos. Nice to see a different perspective on veganism

I actually liked this video, you were able to comment on someone's eating style using some nutrition information without sounding like you are attacking them. It felt really nice, very positive. Honestly I previously unfollowed you because you sounded like the vegan police before. Is nice to see this approach. Keep it up, it makes you look more human, I tottally get that you need to have a lot of money and time to be on these diets. But some people Have time and Money :)

Does anybody know what application/website she’s using that shows all the vitamins and minerals?

@@sowhat... I think you just take dried beans & soak them in water until they got little sprouts. Seen her do that in a couple recipes. Sounds really rough. I typically avoid cooked beans, too, for the sake of my gut, so seeing them eaten raw... not for me.

Yuck. No. I want hit well cooked food with lots of diversity. Even my salads are mostly hot cold. Layers of cooked greensetc on top of other leaves

I eat like Kate and I feel amazing. I’m not a fan of the low fat raw vegan diet. I eat plenty of nuts and seeds and avocado everyday. Eating this way brought my blood pressure down to normal, helped me lose 15 pounds, gives me tons of energy, cleared up my skin, cleared my mind, balanced my digestive issues. I love being raw! 😊

I was always curious about Kate watching those bars too. They are certified raw so if she just wants to go off of that label then eating it would comply with her version of a raw food diet. Kate is a lot not a strict raw vegan. Yes all her videos are for the most part raw but she’s not afraid to eat cooked food( she does talk about it a little in some of her videos). Kate does have pretty open minded approach to the raw vegan diet. A lot of her recipes are really good and I think they they are a good place to start when wanting to eat a plant based vegan diet. Kate’s way of eating seems a lot easier then Kristina’s because she does Include a lot of healthy fats, cutting down on the volume of food she needs to eat. When you eating 801010 you have to eat SOOO much food and it makes being raw kind of inconvenient. I really liked this video I think it shine a lot of light on the raw community and you have such an open minded approach when looking at the different groups with in the vegan community.
