What I ate Today - Raw Vegan - 52 Years Young

[@quietstormaps]

I like your approach. I am 59, have only been raw vegan for 2 years and I am high fruit, low fat and went through menopause 3 yrs ago and so far it has worked for me and I was able to lose weight, and be at a weight even smaller than I was in high school by eating lots of fruit. My waist is a 24 and no belly fat (although it's not as tight as when I was younger). If, for any reason, high fruit/low fat stops giving me what I want, I will absolutely add more fat, and even experiment with a little cooked food (I love potatoes and steamed/roasted veggies). My goal is to at least stay high raw (90% or more) the rest of my life, but I'm loving the 100% raw as of now.

[@EvaTheRawFoodCoach]

That’s right! Finding what works is what it’s all about! 👏👏👏

[@joanneplante7883]

I love what you are sharing. I'm post menopause and I feel the same way. Less fruit more greens for me. Building a healthy microbiome. ❤

[@EvaTheRawFoodCoach]

Yeah! Sounds amazing!

[@BloomingRaw]

You look incredible Eva! 🫶🏽 LOVED the video! 😘😘

[@EvaTheRawFoodCoach]

Thank you! Love your videos too!!

[@lindsaylupe1319]

I really love your approach to raw food, doing what feels best and works best with your body. I find you sharing realistic “ what I eat in the day videos” very helpful, educational, and inspirational. Please share more of these videos. Truly appreciated

[@EvaTheRawFoodCoach]

Thank you so much!!

I’m not vegan but I like your content and attitude about heathy eating.

[@JacsAvenue]

Fruits reveals what needs to be healed. One will get detox symptoms from fruits and/or fruit juices and then blame the fruit. It’s called a healing event and we must be strong to get through those, if we want true healing for ourselves. All cooked foods suppress detox symptoms and feel great, until they don’t. ❤

[@EvaTheRawFoodCoach]

Sorry. Disagree. People heal on all kinds of diets. Oh, and the fruit juice is complete bs.

[@JacsAvenue]

@@EvaTheRawFoodCoach I never said one can’t heal on other “diets”. People that come off a fast food diet into 50% raw vegan will see a dramatic change and heal some. I don’t think you actually put in the work (with fruits) to see how wonderful you can feel, because that’s NEXT LEVEL healing. It’s not always easy or fun. Fruits hydrate and move the lymph sewage. Greens are builders, we need them to build bones and muscles. Gillian berry and Shane sterling are perfect examples of eating and drinking both. What exactly are you coaching? How to eat quinoa and beans? That’ll only help the people that maybe want to loose some weight and feel a little better. That will not help people heal their dis-ease in the body. You’re misleading people and taking advantage of them.

Humanity just frugivores in denial . Fruits for the win baby 🎉… read’ Mans higher consiousness ‘ explains why fruits are true human food with lots of evidence 🎉. Also listen to john rose , robert moorse and free melon society!😊 . But ofcourse its an ideal and to get back to fruits takes transition and its not for everyone depending where we are at . We must also first clean the container as you cant put new wine in an old container .They are the HIGHEST vibration food which is why you reach for the heavens to get them . His comment is correct…I live in the tropics which helps and i dont eat supermarket fruit . Its in the first christian scriptures also that fruit is the food of the angels ! It deserves respect because its the most highs gift to humanity hence all the fruit trees that this world was once covered in ! The creator didnt make the fields for most the crops that we swear by , we destroyed eden and replaced it with them ! Much love 😊

Bella! Gracias por compartir. I'm a 41 yo female on a similar path for the last 9+years. Keep inspiring!

[@EvaTheRawFoodCoach]

Gracias! 😘

[@jessieheartart]

Your way of eating is GOALS for me! I'm new to med/high raw and I'm getting addicted to cashew cheese! I think your way of eating is very intelligent.

[@EvaTheRawFoodCoach]

Thank you but I also no longer eat this way. Update video coming soon.

[@oregonwoodelf]

Great approach👏 And I love that big @$$ wooden bowl! I must have one!🌱✌🧝

[@EvaTheRawFoodCoach]

You should!

[@u2c15d72]

Thank you for also mentioning that mushrooms contain vitamin D. I’ve been taking vitamin D as a supplement, because other than fortified cereals and certain plant-based milks I wasn’t sure where to get the vitamin D. Although I’ve eaten marinated raw mushrooms, I also felt a little funny about eating them raw. However, I’ve missed mushrooms and you have shed a light on and helped to shape my daily whole food veggie-based high raw diet!💯🎁👏🏽

[@EvaTheRawFoodCoach]

Wonderful!

[@auroraruggieri4438]

Thank you Eva for honestly sharing your personal journey. Please share more of these videos.

[@EvaTheRawFoodCoach]

You got it!

[@RubyRuby210]

I am just about to end a long juice fast and have been considering what to do next. Trying to do 100% raw vegan isn't for me, because, I'm not into trying when it comes to food, I'd rather give myself a break. Thanks for being honest about your approach, it has given me a lot of food for thought. Forget those who think numbers are more important than doing what's better for your body, your life and your mental health.

[@Yesenia.H]

I love that you said you're doing you. We are all different! I make sure that I eat greens and I do bake squash. It's help me since I'm now post menopause. Thank you for sharing. Have a great week. 😊

[@EvaTheRawFoodCoach]

Love that!

[@julielilienthal]

Gracias for sharing. Missed you the last few weeks. You look great. The quinoa looked really good. Might have to try some. Sending blessings and love 💕 from El Salvador 🇸🇻

[@EvaTheRawFoodCoach]

Julie! Missed being here but needed a break 😅

[@julielilienthal]

@@EvaTheRawFoodCoach Trust is was a fabulous break

[@marie-linedeslauriers4339]

Thank you for your work and support ❤ I am against label and feel really comfortable seeing you eating cooked food ! Keep on rocking in a free world !!!!😊

[@EvaTheRawFoodCoach]

Thank you so much!!

[@joanneplante7883]

I found a ratatouille quinoa recipe. and I love making a salad with it and vegetables. I need a healthier dressing. I used an orange basil vinegarette.

[@EvaTheRawFoodCoach]

Sounds great!

[@VeganowledgeJJ]

Great song too

[@EvaTheRawFoodCoach]

Thank you!

[@eat2befit]

Awesome! I feel the same way! I’m always learning and open to modifying my diet to what is best for my body and suits my health needs.🎉❤😊

[@EvaTheRawFoodCoach]

Love that!!

[@KaroAdC]

I don’t feel good with fruit juices I always add tons of greens. I don’t add fat to my diet though just much more greens with fruit what makes me feel great and most days 109% raw. Greens are essential!

[@EvaTheRawFoodCoach]

Greens are life!

[@VeganowledgeJJ]

[@EvaTheRawFoodCoach]

Thanks so much! And thanks for the email and the songs!

[@amyrorris569]

Yippee!!!! I love this video!!!!

[@EvaTheRawFoodCoach]

🎉🎉🎉

[@joycepaolini4600]

I'm new here...vegan...but trying to eat more raw. How do I join your support group? What night do you meet? Is it recorded? Once a week meetings? Thank you...just saw you interviewed by Gillian...very inspiring!❤

[@EvaTheRawFoodCoach]

Thank you 🙏🏼 My group is closed. I do private coaching, though. 1:1 consults are still available. You can email me at [e-mail] 😀😀😀

[@u2c15d72]

Thank you for this video, Eva!!!Although I enjoy fruit, I only want it from time to time. I love and crave vegetables. As I’ve been attempting to consume a 100% raw diet, I have been pushing fruits into my daily breakfast. It has been delicious (strawberries, blueberries, and bananas with flax seeds) but it’s not what I think of when I first wake up. I primarily have been eating it add calories. And I cannot wait until lunchtime to have my salad. Your approach looks like the perfect balance for me.💕🎁💯

[@EvaTheRawFoodCoach]

Nice! Thanks for sharing!

[@sherylsankey1793]

Love your approach Eva. Please keep sharing dear heart. Hugs. 👍🥰💕

[@EvaTheRawFoodCoach]

Always!

[@MollyVSmurl]

How do you find you’re able to digest the cooked beans, quinoa & grains? & Have you considered buying them sprouted to enhance digestion even further? Love your approach

[@EvaTheRawFoodCoach]

I digest everything really well. I don't recall last time I had an upset stomach or any issue. I started slow, though. I haven't bought them sprouted but I do soak myself.

[@Nu_Trishas]

I love your style and your freedom it resonates with me a lot. I'd miss the banana in the smoothie though! I love your wooden bowl! Could you share where you got that please?

[@EvaTheRawFoodCoach]

Thank you! The bowl was from a Whole Foods in Miami many years ago. :)

[@CallieBradford]

Eva how do u make quinoa raw?

[@EvaTheRawFoodCoach]

The quinoa isn’t raw. I explain that in the video. You can sprout quinoa, though. Kind of not that tasty that way, imo.

[@michellemalley497]

Great video would love to see more cause that’s exactly how I eat and I get ideas from u!! But can u tell me how exactly u made your quinoa? And when u steam your mushrooms do u add anything to it while it is steaming and how long do you let it steam for?

[@EvaTheRawFoodCoach]

The quinoa was plain. I made it the same way I make rice. I cup quinoa, two water. The mushrooms I steamed in a basket in a pot with an inch of water for about 5 minutes. They were big mushrooms.

[@christinamihu7951]

Good information Eva! Can you please tell where you got the bowl? It is beautiful!

[@EvaTheRawFoodCoach]

I bought it at a Whole Foods in Miami years ago. It was expensive but it’s lasted me all these years and I use it daily!

[@Maham_k3]

Instead of flax oil, you can also just add raw walnuts to your salad.

[@EvaTheRawFoodCoach]

Yum :)

[@amyrorris569]

I have found the exact same thing on my own I am 50 and also experience the exact same thing and I eat my fruit hole I’ve added a little bit more fat and I do a little bit of cooked also I’m basically exactly doing the same thing that you are but you’re a little bit better at it in more focused than I am but I am very close to what you’re doing and I love it and I feel way more stabilized way less up and down from all the sugar and my skin seems less dry it seems more hydrated so I feel much more balanced and that this is the right way for at least being the age that I am at around 50

[@EvaTheRawFoodCoach]

Awesome! Sounds like you’re doing something right!

[@annatikum3916]

I can't open the link to the community (I would like to join!!!), I sent an email to you, Eva. I don't know if you will read it. Just wondering if it's possible to join the community from where I am (time difference etc).

[@maryw6271]

Do you put bananas in your smoothies?

[@gayledeir7326]

Not to be critical but that doesn’t look like enough calories or protein? I don’t know if that’s how you normally eat but if it is how do keep from losing weight?

[@EvaTheRawFoodCoach]

You’re correct. I’ve upped my protein significantly.

[@jessieheartart]

I joined the wrong raw vegan community! LOL I should have joined yours!

[@EvaTheRawFoodCoach]

Thank you. Yes, some are dangerous, imo. Mine is no longer accepting new members. I wish you well.

[@madamplant]

Yummy!!

🎉🎉🎉

[@مرتضىعبدالرزاق-غ8س]

WOw

[@charlotteschafler8306]

So you're not 100% raw?

[@EvaTheRawFoodCoach]

No, as I’ve been sharing. I can say raw, since I’m well over 75% raw. Probably around 90%. I don’t see the big deal. Take the quinoa out and the mushrooms and it’s raw. Smh 🤦‍♀️

[@charlotteschafler8306]

You answered my question as I listen to your video more You're not high raw you're not raw anymore I guess you would consider yourself high Ross so you could put that in the title high roll instead of raw

[@EvaTheRawFoodCoach]

I’ll put whatever I want on the title, thank you very much.

[@takecareofyourself8467]

I think we need to stop labeling and being dogmatic about our diets. That’s very unhealthy.

[@charlotteschafler8306]

You sure can. Wow

[@kellahwatkins8724]

After reading your reply I will not watch your videos anymore . I agree with lady above .. just say high raw. Adios
