Actually, I think it's superficial every time someone makes a mention of this. If this is for real, I wanna see more facts and not some sort of analogies supporting other analogies. I mean, if you are to tell me this cherokee scrub is cool. Speak of solid proofs. I’m not very sure of this longevity thing.

Ethical vegans have made a lifestyle choice based on not thinking it is ok to hurt other animals to take care of humans. We strive daily to yes, make those choices and stay as true as possible to our chosen path. If you get right down to it, every breath you take destroys life, every step, and then there is the battle being waged inside us that keeps us alive (immune system)...but we've made the choice to stop causing harm to sentient beings. I used to love David's teachings for including this ethical thinking. So for me, no colostrum, no deer antler, no fish extracts....and yes, I have autoimmunity that may kill me. But I won't choose my life over another's. Love David Wolfe, don’t love his latest endorsements of very cruel products.

I occasionally take Dr. Weil's immune support supplements - a combination of medicinal mushrooms! I get them from amazon.com because they cost less than from Dr. Weil's site. Hope this helps! :) I really like David's raw food message & enjoyed the videocast but some of the comments frustrated me - I am strongly opposed to consuming colostrum & his explanations don't always make sense - this is the first time I've heard him so not sure if he was just having a bad night? Anytime someone uses excessive analogies instead of hard facts/science to back things up, I start to question the message....(sorry about the negative comment!!).

Serenity Now!" I know, I need some kind of serious help. A whole team in Vienna, working 'round the clock on my case...(another Seinfeld reference...somebody stop me...)

Of course the ark worked--the amateurs that built it had help from the Master Architect! :) If you want to see a picture showing the approximate dimensions of the ark (it did NOT look like a little round tub), you can link to it (and also see my project version) at this page of my website: http://www.home-and-school-solutions.com/FM/noahs-ark-project-B.htm Have fun!

What's the difference between his suggestions here & those of doctors? OK, these methods are obviously WAY healthier, but they both amount to what you can take so you can carry on "business as usual". Except for the one suggestion of ground connection, those products work for the already relatively healthy. But for those in need of remedial measures I'd've suggested the real basics in our hierarchy of needs we ALL apparently take too far for granted. Yes, air is on top of the heap, fresh air & attention to breathing that interfaces mind with body (the basic meditation instruction). Next is water & most everybody is to a degree dehydrated. We do tend to habitually take water for granted--just look at how we've yielded to desertification/deforestation, 4 instance. Yes, we can see what we've done & are doing to our bodies & selves by looking "out there" acknowledging what we've for too long done to Earth & our world. Most consider that base (of thirst quenching) is covered by drinking diuretics, which yield diminishing returns (drink so much & pee so much more). So 1/4 teaspoon of sea salt per quart is my understanding of oral rehydration (add a little natural potassium source &, say, a little maple syrup, then you got a natural version of Pedialyte, a product for rehydrating babies). Then sleep deprivation is the first line of torture, yet we all are generally sleep deprived, happily applying this upon self. B4 artificial light we went down & back up with the sun, heliotropic like a sunflower, giving us a relative hibernation period over the winter. Studies find we average about 10 hours a night, ideally in two episodes. Any less & we suffer increased motor error, more difficulty solving problems & diminished creativity. Read Sleep Thieves by Stanley Coren for references. Then food runs a distant 3rd in our hierarchy of needs to air & water. If we take better general care of our body & being then this frees our body to heal the specific problems. It's easy to become a foody, much harder to make lifestyle changes. Dropping these other degenerative habits of lifestyle would augment the benefits of eating right & staying in touch with Earth, not doing so would be a drag on those benefits. Also look up & give a chance to "oil pulling" & the sea salt flush as what will, in good part, take care of auto-intoxication (along with exercise that increases sweating & breathing) since a near all raw food diet is an eliminating/detox diet. & that's just a start, but 'nuf 4 now, eh.

I wish for a couple of things: 1-the option to see it in print. I know there are programs that will automatically translate the verbal to the written, although I don't know if there are any that don't have to be "trained" or that can deal with the poor audio quality 2-a glossary of the less common foods/terms/whatever that are mentioned in various videos. With some interviewees they do not enunciate sufficiently clearly. In the case of this video there were a few foods with which I was not familiar and I have no clue as to the spelling, so looking them up ain't an option. I would also REALLY welcome information for those of us who are both city dwellers who not only can't raise our own food and are bombarded with constant virulent pollutants, but also cannot afford even to purchase organic foods, much less some of the extremely expensive things that have been mentioned. I know a fair amount about nutrition, but I can't afford to exercise my knowledge in my daily diet. What are some ways I can improve my lot while eating what I can afford rather than what I would like?
