so I just reach out to folk about my rawsome experience being raw. I met with my first photographer who is returning to Chicago this afternoon. He clearly has some health issues. I did NOT bring up him being raw. I just talked my life as usual and he asked, "How long you been into this raw thing. I said about seven years, and my commitment grows and my life enriches. It is unbelievable. He was so curious, and he listen and he listen. He then of course asked the protein question. I have the greatest answer. Question: Where do you get your protein from? Answer: The same place cows do and Elephants.... eating grass. Love it.
most veggie are high in protein, especially the green leafy ones, but most people do not eat enough, especially non veggie lovers. The government recommends 8 grams per Body weight. BUt bio chemically we NEED 3-4 to maintain proper nitrogen balance. the 8 grams ARE inflated. But that is why we have most of the issue diabetes, gout, heart disease, too much protein.
This must be done for a healthy weight. if some one is my height 5.8 and weighs 140lbs then that is 64 kg then you would 64 kg X .8 =51grams of protein. so 1200 calories o f raw broccoli have 131 grams of protein, 1200 calories of oranges have 24. so if you eat a variety of veggies and fruit you can easily get to your needed rate. It is a no brainer eat greens. That is an exaggerated about of veggies, with an exaggerated amount of protein. A woman my height on needs 51 not 131 grams of protein.
DO NOT AVOID THE GREENS JUST EAT THEM, SMOOTHIE THEM, JUICE THEM EAT THEM.
