nope. that one was on protein. and i only 5lbs of lettuce this is an overview of everything i eat in a day...I think you posted this before.
no! well…not really…maybe kinda? i don't wanna play anymore!So an incremental update of previous content?...
it is. but that's a good thing!Seems like a lot of roughage.
it's not for everyone that's for sure! makes my tummy pretty happyI admire your raw diet, BSV, though I don't think I could eat that much lettuce or fruit in one day without a serious stomachache

Indeed. I could eat legumes all day, but my body doesn't like more than three or four pieces of fruit a day.I find that it is not needed provided legumes are cooked properly. You have to be persistent with some of them.
I wish more things bothered my stomach. It would help me not over eat. All it ever seems to complain about is being empty...hahaha. [emoji12]
Yeah.....and no reason to believe its healthful.Seems like a lot of roughage.

After you're already consuming the recommended intake of vegetables (5~8 servings/day) adding more to your diet doesn't seem to have much impact on your diet. It would be interesting to see long-term studies on diets high in fruit/vegetables when compared to a balanced traditional vegetarian diet.
I have read "The China Study" and it doesn't address what I mentioned. The China Study promotes a balanced plant-based diet, not a diet of just vegetables and fruit, and the China Study really doesn't look into traditional vegetarian diets (you'd want to do a study in India for that). If you're aware of a study that looks into the long-term impact of diets high in fruit/vegetables I'd be interested in seeing it, the research I've seen shows diminishing returns after you've consumed the recommended intake of fruits/vegetables. That is, once you're already consuming the recommended intake of fruits/vegetables there is little to no health benefit to consuming more and since whole grains, legumes, nuts,etc promote health in many ways avoiding these foods may leave you less healthy.Check out The China Study and Forks Over Knives.
