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.
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)

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
— 4 bunches Parsley (2 Regular, 2 Italian)
— 1 bunch Asparagus
— 1 large Fresh Aloe Leaf (inorganic ok; organic is rarely available…also, only juice the lower portion of it & always juice a bit & taste, juice a bit & taste, as it can be VERY potent)
— 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 visually stunning trip through the known universe by the American Museum of Natural History. You never knew how small the Earth is, how beautiful, how singular and alone.
Another visual stunning trip through the Universe is the introductory scene from the movie, “Contact” with Jody Foster and Matthew McConaughey. A Must Buy movie, by the way…
From Youtube:
“The Known Universe takes viewers from the Himalayas through our atmosphere and the inky black of space to the afterglow of the Big Bang. Every star, planet, and quasar seen in the film is possible because of the world’s most complete four-dimensional map of the universe, the Digital Universe Atlas that is maintained and updated by astrophysicists at the American Museum of Natural History. The new film, created by the Museum, is part of an exhibition, Visions of the Cosmos: From the Milky Ocean to an Evolving Universe, at the Rubin Museum of Art in Manhattan through May 2010.”

The most amazing photographs… Tanja Askani takes the most wonderful photos of animals… She loves them with her whole heart, and it shows. She is able to capture their inner and outer beauty with such artfulness. Animals love her back, dearly. It is as if they have an understanding.
Wolves are magnificent, beautiful creatures capable of great, enduring love.
Amazing and Wonderful Wolves…Wolves can love with great passion and intensity, broken hearted and inconsolable when they lose one another. They are devoted parents, uncles, aunts and grandparents to the cubs.
They can be extremely sweet to one another, playful and teasing, gentle and yet firm in their discipline. Some have observed that they excel as parents, beyond and above their human counterparts.
They hunt only when hungry, kill quickly, and will catch and eat mice if need be.
We do not know the wolf anymore. We came to fear them through fictional literature of the past.
SCARY GLOBS OF MUCUS SLIME BLOBS INCREASING
These blog globs are growing. There’s more of them, and they’re getting bigger. If you are unlucky enough to get caught and swim inside their soupier members, their slime doesn’t wash off. The thick mucasoid globs are more solid, white gelatinous collection of germy bacterial infested soup. Gross!
These mucus sea blobs are growing in the ocean. Some are huge.
More Information
“But the new study found that Mediterranean mucilages harbor bacteria and viruses, including potentially deadly E. coli, Danovaro said. Those pathogens threaten human swimmers as well as fish and other sea creatures, according to the report, published September 16 in the journal PloS One. ”
“The noxious masses can also trap animals, coating their gills and suffocating them, Danovaro said.
And the biggest blobs can sink to the bottom, acting like a huge blanket that smothers life on the seafloor.
Mucilages Going Global?
Mucilages aren’t a concern for just the Mediterranean, Danovaro added. Recent studies tentatively suggest that mucus may be spreading throughout oceans from the North Sea (map) to Australia, perhaps because of rising temperatures, he said.
“It’s a good example [of what will happen if] we don’t do something to stop climate warming,” Danovaro said. “There are consequences [if] we continue to deny the scientific evidence.”
Beyond warm temperatures, it’s still not exactly clear what drives the blobs’ formation, Scripps’ Azam pointed out. For instance, no one knows why the dead marine matter in the blobs doesn’t decompose.
” Giant, Mucus-Like Sea Blobs on the Rise, Pose Danger
I recently saw a map of places that might be preserved in case there was global turmoil. One of those places was within Mongolia. I surely hope this place above would be included…
Animals, people, living and loving each other in a perfect harmony as Nature would have intended. Extraordinary… and yet, it should be so ordinary as to be just the way life is.
What happened? Did ancient, jaded, perverse asteroid people come down to a virgin Earth and bring their perverse dark decay of soul and heart with them?
With great age, comes decay and decline. As we allow for the rape our children, as we rape the Earth… it will go mad, as do the children. And it, and they, will be gone to us.
Let these nomadic, beautiful ways teach us something. Or, if we choose to ignore it, I fear we will all be doomed.
Science says the future will be packed with innovation and invention. Life will be extended. Robots, organs in a lab, mind melding, mind control, war by proxy, more.
Will the waters and air be pure and clean? Will there be fields and meadows filled with bees, flora, fauna, new baby animal life filled with optimism. hope, joy?
Or will scientific innovation bring with it, litter, decay, unnatural perversions, desperate attempts to prolong a greedy lifestyle, and decline of the ecosystem?
We must take care. The video above has more to say than we might at first, think…
