i don’t know if it’s just me or other people as well, but i’m utterly disarmed, charmed and bewitched by the raw life style in the videos below.
I truly believe these wild greens and fresh organic raw fruits and vegetables were exactly what the child in me would have craved once upon a time. Life would have been incredibly different with such a dreamy, lovely, idyllic way of living.
Ka Sundance (Daddy of the Raw Food Family TV Show) and his family moved to Costa Rica via Thailand, Great Britain and Germany most all the while living on raw foods even while on planes and trains. And with 4 children in tow! :O
PS: Ka explains how Costa Rica is not perfect… So i won’t pine for Costa Rica. After all, home is where the heart is. We can bloom where we are planted.
So just had to share this little playlist i made, below. It would be nice to know if anyone else was touched in the heart by this as i was. It struck my most visceral chord down to my most primal being.
So What’s the Problem with “Dead Food?”
Dead food is devoid of natural enzymes and other living factors that boost bioavailability of nutrients and enhance nutrition. Living foods are known by every past culture to even have medicinal qualities. As Hippocrates, the most famous physician of all known times said, “Let food be your medicine, and let your medicine be food.”
Animals and Dead Food
Animals that have been fed strictly “dead” foods are much more likely to come down with illness and disease at an earlier age than animals fed a natural, raw food diet. Cats fed raw meat recovered from illness while others with similar illness did not fare so well when fed cooked, or dead food.
Over 35?
Most healthy people can eat cooked foods with little problem. But, after the age of 35, raw foods can really be a boon to help stay younger and healthier longer, especially is they adhere to the “less is best” philosophy.
Nevertheless, those younger than 35, eating raw foods can reap tremendous rewards and benefits to their future health and constitution. However, it’s very hard to resist all the processed and fast foods that tempt with addictive and tasty spices and additives.
If you can increase your consumption of “living foods,” you will be doing yourself a big favor. And, if you can eat salads, you CAN eat raw or living foods.
Hints, Tips and Tricks
Here are some hints, tips and tricks to aid in successfully integrating Living Foods into the diet. This will help you ease through the transition more comfortably.
1. Chew thoroughly. This will help aid in the digestion of all those nice plant fibers and help prevent indigestion.
2. Juice or Blend. This way, you get to drink something absolutely delicious while getting a nice selection of raw goodies without all that chewing.
There’s a natural tendency for many people to chew quickly and eat on the go. With cooked foods, this is more easily accomplished.
However with raw foods, this does not work the same. It is not necessarily good for your digestion to swallow raw foods whole or partially chewed. Therefore, juicing or blending, especially in the beginning, can really help chew for you in the beginning. Children especially love blended raw juicy smoothies, shakes drinks.
3. Buy Organic and Local. Organic fruits, vegetables and grains are used by the finest gourmet restaurants in the world. Why? Because they taste absolutely delicious when compared with their factory farmed counterparts.
So why shouldn’t you reap the rewards of the superior taste and nutrition of organic? The richest people on Earth eat it. And so should you. The better it tastes, the more you’ll eat. Raw, that is. : )
Another factor to consider regarding “organic” is that today’s ordinary factory farmed grocery fruits and vegetables may be beautiful to look at, but devoid of the magnificent flavors and nutrition inherent in their heirloom predecessors of long ago.
Naturally farmed fruits and vegetables using natural compost and healthy manure from hormone free and organically fed animals is MUCH more likely to contain valuable and vital nutrition in higher quantities.
4. If Necessary, Start Gradually. A nice, gradual start and introduction to Living Foods will help you acclimate to the new flavors and consistency of living foods. Feel free to mix living and “dead” foods so that you become acclimated to “raw” over a period of time.
If you are adventurous, you can start with raw juice fasting. However, this normally seems to work best when one is driven by other motivations such as poor health or sports competition. It takes considerable will power and knowledge to adhere to juice fasting.
5. Don’t Give Up! As you eat more and more living, raw foods, your mood and health will change for the better. It will become easier and easier. And soon, you’ll be craving delicious salads and raw goodies because they taste fantastic, look beautiful and become increasinly delicious to your fresh, clean tastebuds. And, your body will love you for it.
Protein
Did you know that spinach, collard greens, English peas, green beans, lentils, beans, seeds and nuts, grain germs and a few other vegetables contain all 8 of the necessary amino acids (protein) that the human body needs?
A wisely planned vegetarian diet can provide all the necessary nutrients to sustain a beautiful and healthy life.
B12
Some say that vegetarians can suffer from Vitamin B12 deficiencies. If this is your case, you can take a sublingual form of B12 to supplement your diet.
However, this does not occur in all cases. Many vegetarians have perfectly adequate amounts of B12.
Organic vegetables may contain the beneficial bacteria that help provide B12 in the gut. Some vegetarians will eat eggs or raw dairy products to supplement.
Consider the Manatee
An interesting animal is the manatee. These very large and lovable sea mammals can live very healthily and successfully on specially grown romaine lettuce, (no chemicals or preservatives allowed!) cabbage, greenleaf, iceberg lettuce and spinach. For treats, they get occasional grapes, apples, carrots and sweet potatoes.
Who doesn’t like sweet? : )
In the wild, they strictly live on ocean greenery.
They grow to be quite massive and derive all their protein, vitamins and minerals from their vegetarian diet. Living plants are chock full of the highest quality vitamins, minerals, protein, fiber and valuable enzymes.
Be like a Manatee… Beautiful, Happy, Well Nourished, Healthy, Loving and Strong with Living Foods. : )
Beautiful movie with a beautiful message and revealing truths. Yes, there IS a cure for cancer that was developed by Dr. Max Gerson. So many people have been cured using his method. Unfortunately, the 100 billion dollar cancer industry continues to dismiss his real cure. There is a nobility of spirit in some people who risk everything to share their Beautiful Truth.
From the Movie:
Live A Life That Matters…
What Will Matter Ready or not, someday it will all come to an end.
There will be no more sunrises, no minutes, hours or days.
All the things you collected, whether treasured or forgotten, will pass to someone else.
Your wealth, fame and temporal power will shrivel to irrelevance.
It will not matter what you owned or what you were owed.
Your grudges, resentments, frustrations, and jealousies will finally disappear.
So, too, your hopes, ambitions, plans, and to-do lists will expire.
The wins and losses that once seemed so important will fade away.
It won’t matter where you came from, or on what side of the tracks you lived, at the end.
It won’t matter whether you were beautiful or brilliant.
Even your gender and skin color will be irrelevant.
So what will matter? How will the value of your days be measured? What will matter is not what you bought, but what you built; not what you got, but what you gave?
What will matter is not your success, but your significance.
What will matter is not what you learned, but what you taught.
What will matter is every act of integrity, compassion, courage or sacrifice that enriched, empowered or encouraged others to emulate your example.
What will matter is not your competence, but your character.
What will matter is not how many people you knew, but how many will feel a lasting loss when you’re gone.
What will matter is not your memories, but the memories that live in those who loved you.
What will matter is how long you will be remembered, by whom and for what.
Living a life that matters doesn’t happen by accident. It’s not a matter of circumstance but of choice.
Inspiring… This is a miracle story. Long Haul Truck Driver Dave cured his own cancer, diabetes, kidney disease, heart disease, and lost over 200 pounds, fully regaining his health, natural vigor and great enthusiasm for life with natural organic fresh, dark leafy green and colorful vegetables, fruits and no animal products. These valuable and inspirational videos were provided by the “LifeRegenerator,” Dan McDonald and others as well. Dave’s and Dan’s Juice Recipe below. Updated with an extremely enlightening set of new videos with Dave. : ) Here’s link to 16 Videos Movie of Dave.
May 2010 Dave is Glowing with Health in His Own Way
A very enlightening and enervating series of videos where Dave the Raw Food Trucker discusses his health and spiritual evolution from almost dying of cancer, kidney disease, diabetes and more, to now living a life of vibrant, glowing health and utter joy and happiness. Recorded by Megumi of DivineFoodsLiving in the Valley of Longevity, Vilcabamba, Ecuador during the World Raw Food Conference sponsored by Matt and Angela Monarch. I absolutely love Dave and his loving, giving and refreshing spirit. His videos with the LifeRegenerator have inspired and helped many people to overcome life threatening health conditions using dark green leafy juice and raw foods.
Dave and Friends Make Juice – Dave Discusses His Miracle Healing
UPDATE: All 16 Videos of Dave the Raw Food Truck Driver and Dan McDonald the “LifeRegenerator”: (This video will play automatically in consecutive order. : )
IMPORTANT NOTE: It is advised in the book that you must be VERY careful as the juicing can cause Glucose Levels to PLUMMET so much that medications may need to be stopped in the beginning. It is always advisable to seek licensed professional monitoring and counsel, of course.
Dave started his raw food lifestyle by using nutbutters and stopping at raw food restaurants along his truck route. After 3 to 4 months, he began raw juicing using Gabriel Cousen’s raw juice recipes. In 4 days, his Glucose Levels dropped from over 400 to between 80 and 90. Previously, his doctor had recommended having his kidney removed because it was leaking protein so heavily. After raw foods for 16 months, his kidneys were back to normal.

Notes:
Dave the Trucker’s and LifeRegenerator’s Series of Youtube Videos Individually Listed
(You can see the entire series in playlist format at the top of page)
Dave found out the exercise was important for sleep, Barley Max (“Rocket Fuel”), enzymes for urinary constancy.
He recommends detoxing GRADUALLY – lots of raw food, adding organics gradually, always consulting a doctor.
He enjoys new varieties green vegetables at the oriental markets. (Find organic : )
He loves raw food restaurants that provide so much encouragement and inspiration to transition to a raw foods diet. Cafe Gratitudes, Juliano’s in LA, etc.
Re: Colonics – Important for losing weight, cleansing, detoxification.
He is off all pharmaceutical and prescription drugs. He used to take over 13 drugs per day.
Dave has found a new enlightenment and “state of grace…” He has found extreme joy and contentment. A new, profound peace.
Dave believes in no animal products.
Dave is 99% everything – he “doesn’t want to be a purist.” : )
He believes most people no longer have all the digestive enzymes they need and cannot simply digest all the nutrients they need. People crave more food because they’re not getting what they need. Today’s food in cans, jars, bottles and boxes have lost all their enzymes.
About Juice Feasting
“After starting a juice feast, a lot of women who are post menopausal regain their periods after day 10 and 22. Raw juicing can bring your body back to where it really belongs.”
Dave’s libido increased. More energy, more life force or Holy Spirit, feeling like “you’re waking up, wondering why you never felt this way in your life.”
Dave used the following books:
** The China Study
** There is a Cure for Diabetes (Dave uses this book for his diet – he drinks as much juice as he wants.)
** Rainbow Green Life food Cuisine (Dave used the Section: Stage One for Diabetics)

This is VIDEO #8 of my weekly chats
with my friend Dave the Raw Food Trucker! ?
For those of you just joining us on this video, make sure to watch the rest of this series of videos at http://bit.ly/Hfc1X and also quickly read the following background info on Dave’s amazing story of natural healing….
My friend Dave the raw food truck driver tells his story of how he came from the brink of death to heal himself of several diseases including colon cancer, type II diabetes, kidney disease, with the consumption of raw foods. Not to mention his amazing weight loss of 178 pounds over the last 16 months, and he’s not stopping there. He is going to go ALL the way with his health, and wants YOU too as well. This guy is a TRUE SUPERHERO!!
*****VIDEO #8 UPDATE*****
This week, we find Dave at a raw food meetup group in Redmond, WA where Cherie Calbom, “The Juice Lady” was the special guest. Cherie has been wanting to meet Dave for awhile, so she invited up to the front to share a little bit more about how he healed himself of cancer and diabetes, and I gotta say, this is one powerful message!
After Dave first healed himself of type II diabetes, the doctors then told him that he had stage IV colon cancer…basically a death sentence! Thank goodness he didn’t believe in that death sentence, as here is what he thought instead….go, Dave!!!:
If this stuff right here can heal my diabetes in 4 days, it can probably heal the cancer!
When I started on a juicing program to heal the colon cancer, I told no one…as I’m sure they would have thought I was nuts…I didn’t want to waste time being defensive, so I just focused on my healing instead. Today, I’m happy to now continually bear witness to others also healing themselves of cancer…like my friend Jared, who has successfully reversed a stage IV skin cancer melanoma that had metastasized throughout his body, simply by going raw vegan.
How I first got into the raw food and juicing path was from my raw vegan friends Dave & Judit…who I credit today with saving my life. They had told me about a way of eating that would allow me to eat as much as I want, and still lose weight, while possibly healing myself of diabetes in the process. I was a 400 pound fat man at the time, so I listened!!
During the first week it was VERY challenging to stay on track, trying to just eat fruits and vegetables. But by the second week they invited me to a raw food restaurant in Santa Monica, called Juliano’s Planet Raw. When I sat down and tasted that food, I just KNEW that I could then stay raw….so then I began seeking out every raw food restaurant that I could find, such as:

*****VIDEO #9 UPDATE*****
This week, Dave’s with me here at the RV making what may be the most powerful & amazing juice recipe that mankind has ever known…it’s…
? DAVE THE RAW FOOD TRUCKER’S 3-GALLON
SUPER SPECIAL LIFE-SAVING POWER JUICE !!! ?
Yeah!!!! This is definitely one of those juicing recipes for good health!
Dave first wants to thank Dr. Gabriel Cousens, MD and his entire team at the Tree of Life http://treeoflife.nu for LITERALLY SAVING HIS LIFE. If it wasn’t for Dave reading Dr. Cousens’ book “There is a Cure for Diabetes” http://bit.ly/vZtsw or his friends Dave & Judit who recommended the book to him, who knows what would’ve happened!
These ingredients are what Dave uses to make 3 gallons worth of juice at once, so as to last him 3 days on the road. This is an ULTRA LOW-glycemic juice, the same juice Dave credits for helping to cure his body of Type II Diabetes & Stage IV Colon Cancer.
Dave is ALL about having his vegetables be 100% organic. As he healed himself of serious conditions & his body still isn’t done healing himself of all the excess weight, he feels this is vital. As for you, just do the best you can!
* I n g r e d i e n t s *
— 5 bunches Spinach (pulled straight from ground w/ stems intact; not just the leaves)
— 2 bunches Red Chard
— 3 bunches Collard Greens
— 3 bunches Kale
— 4 bunches Cilantro
— 1 bunch Fresh Basil
— 4 bunches Beet Greens (Dave ONLY juices the greens of the beets & NOT the actual beets because he’s still recovering from the diabetes. For those not recovering or healing from diabetes, feel free to juice the beets!
— 6 Red Bell Peppers
— 4 Yellow Bell Peppers
— 2 heads Fennel
— 4 heads Celery
— 12 Cucumbers (unpeeled if organic; peeled if inorganic)
— 2 dozen on-the-vine Tomatoes
— 3 heads Broccoli
— 1 pound Baby Bok Choy (or 1 bunch Bok Choy)
— 1 bunch Mustard Greens

— 1 bottle of E3Live Algae
— Rainbow Light Advanced Systems Digestive Enzymes (to help control gas, especially when you first jump into a program like this! If you can’t find this brand, look for a type that’s raw vegan & whole-plant sourced)
* B e n e f i t s *
— Red Chard ~ High in betacarotene
— Collard Greens ~ High in phytonutrients
— Kale ~ Has the highest known level of phytonutrients in it that are digestible by humans (over 2x the level of spinach!)
— Beets ~ Beet green leaves have 2,000x the level of Vitamin K in them than the actual beets, so that’s why its worth it to Dave to buy them just for their greens!
— Bell Peppers ~ Great for flavor
— Celery & Cucumber ~ Function well as a hydrating juice base
— Tomatoes ~ Dave likes them because of the lycopene and chooses not to believe what they say about having to cook tomatoes in order to get more lycopene, for if you’re cooking tomatoes, you’re destroying the very enzymes that your body needs to digest the lycopene! What good is ingesting more lycopene if you can’t adequately digest, assimilate & utilize it?
— Aloe Leaf ~ Incredible for the cardiovascular system!
* I n s p i r a t i o n *
— Over the past 15 months or so, Dave estimates that he spent 150 NON-consecutive days just on juice. BarleyMax is like rocket fuel for Dave! http://BarleyMax.com
— Per liter of juice Dave drinks on the road, he throws in the contents of 1 fresh digestive enzyme capsule
— Dave has lost 188 pounds so far, is currently down to a size 40 pant & is on the fast-track to catching up with me! I better watch out!
— The cost of all of these vegetables for 3 gallons of juice to be drunk over a span of 3 days came to approx. $75.
? Is $25 a day really too much to save your life?

A Soldier Weeps While Holding a Dead Baby in His Arms
An extraordinarily heartbreaking picture of an unknown soldier holding a dead baby close to his heart, emotionally overwrought. No… this is not an amazing nor beautiful picture… but then perhaps the truly beautiful, amazing, wondrous thing might be how this picture shows us another truth and reality that we might have missed while struggling through our daily routines.
This is a particular moving image depicting the devastating consequences of war. I do not have the details about this particular image, only that it caused great grief when i first saw it in an email. But then, any pictures of dead children are devastating in scope.
Evidently this soldier is deeply moved by the death of this little baby. He will never forget this little child and this moment will likely haunt him for the rest of his days. He seems to be a soldier of great love, caring and courage. Hopefully he will go on to find a truly hopeful and peaceful way to reconcile the things he has born witness to.
The baby is so completely innocent in all of this. One day laughing, smiling, patting little hands together, the next day terrified, killed, then held in a bloody blanket by a stranger. But the stranger weeps for him or her… as do we all.
If anyone has any details about this image, please let me know.
MAKE YOUR OWN ORGANIC RAW DARK GREEN LEAFY JUICE
(Regular Glycemic)
(Adapted from Dave Raw Rood Trucker & LifeRegenerator – I will add Romaine Lettuce, apple, carrots, green beans, English peas, beets (gold or red), leeks, scallions, shallots, sprouts, grasses, low acid fruits, sometimes fresh or frozen mango)
Cost Approximately $7.75 per day or $3.40 per day if you want to split your juice for 2 days. This can actually last me 2 days.
Notes First of all, yes – this is hard work and can be somewhat expensive and time consuming. Actually, this way of life is SAVING me money. Huge amounts…
You might also want to adding sprouts (avoid buckwheat sprouts as they contain a mild toxin), garlic, non-acidic fruit such as peaches or pears, grasses, watercress, or any other green leafy vegetable. Make sure to use organics if they are available.
If not, it has been advised to rinse your veggies in a solution of raw apple cider vinegar and water. (1 tablespoon per gallon). Feel free to leave out whatever you wish as not everything is available. I have an old Green Juicer.
I LOVE it as it slowly and gently grinds the greens and presses to almost nothing. If you use a blender, you can use a well washed paint straining or cheese cloth to squeeze out the juice.) Of course it’s

Meanwhile, enjoy some super cute pictures of a newly born Red Panda mother, father and baby. Absolutely adorable.
I remember long ago hearing a psychologist say that animals do not have any feelings. It seems he was actually referring just to himself… or to animals made of wood. Below: true, adoring and magnificent love between two species. No feelings? Sigh.
Nick Vujicic (Pronouced Voychich) had a dream to speak to all types of people in all types of settings around the globe. He’s now spoken to over 2 million people, making a profound difference in so many lives. He is a man with an eternal smile, loving life, all people.
He is a magnificent inspiration. And he’s also very cute. : ) His message… “Never Give UP.”
Quotes “The day you believe you have reached your fullest potential, you haven’t.”
“The only limits I have in life, are the limits I put on myself.”
“I asked God, why did you make me without arms and legs? His answer… “Do you trust me?”
