The Sugar Debate Heats Up : Exclusive Renegade Health Article http://renegadehealth.com/blog/2012/01/24/the-sugar-debate-heats-up/ http://renegadehealth.com/blog/2012/01/24/the-sugar-debate-heats-up/#comments Tue, 24 Jan 2012 19:39:26 +0000 Kevin Gianni http://renegadehealth.com/blog/?p=7567 bread fruit not sweet
Bread fruit isn’t sweet (it’s also the size of your head!), but does it matter — for your health — how sweet a fruit is?

Ah, here it is again…

Sugar.

Is it good or bad for you?

It seems like the debate heats up just about every 4-6 months on discussion boards around the Internet or at health events.

Inevitably, we get questions about whether it’s good for you or not.

Unfortunately, the answer isn’t yes or no. It’s both… and neither… and a little bit of everything.

Let me explain… (LOL!)

She shares why you should rotate your greens.

This whole week, I’m going to show clips from the Rawkathon, which is a powerful collection of over 14 hours of raw food information. Some people have told me it’s the most comprehensive collection on interviews on raw food ever put together. (I’ll let you decide for yourself!)

The reason I’m putting these on is because I recently was playing around with my hard drives and started watching a few of the videos from the program.

Almost instantly, I was ashamed that I took it off the market and got too busy to re-release it. It’s too good to sit on my hard drive. Way too good.

So now you can get a great taste of it this week, as well as get the program at a super-deep discount for over 14 hours of raw food education. Here’s where you can go… http://www.rawkathon.com/special

We spend the afternoon with her the other day and Annmarie and I completely enjoyed ourselves.

She’s open, honest, loving, gracious, direct, and amazing – all in one. :-)

She also made us a special bitter green smoothie with dandelion that was awesome.

BTW: Her skin is an amazing tone and color. Which is a testament to the healing properties of green smoothies.

Today, she discusses green smoothies (obviously!), oxidation, natural shaving cream, avocado pits, and more.

Check it out…

Today we’re going to show you how to eliminate that tight, stiff feeling in your lower back and hips that make you feel about as flexible as a railroad tie. (Railroad ties are notoriously inflexible ;-) )

In this episode, Annmarie is doing the demonstration, since many of you liked that last week! Also I take on the challenge that a few of your offered and do some V-Ups. (Thought I couldn’t do ‘em huh?!)

Take a watch now…

And wait! don’t go yet… :-)

Just wanted to tell you about 3 events that are coming up in the raw food world… (We’ll be at two of them)

(1) Living Light Expo in Ft. Bragg, CA from August 22nd – 24th – This event is hosted by Cherie Soria and Dan Ladermann at the Living Light Culinary School. I had a chance to talk to Dan this week and Annmarie and I are thrilled to be going to this unique and intimate event. Enrollment is only $195 (as of today) which is literally a steal of a price. (There will only be about 300-400 people there!) This event is extremely affordable and is regarded by many as the premier raw food event. Please take a look now and check it out… flights to Sacramento and San Fran look to be about $250-300 right now, so it’s not that expensive!

Click here for more info on the Living Light Expo…

(2) Raw and Living Spirit Festival in Molalla, Oregon from August 26-29th - This event has some awesome speakers as well and will be in beautiful Oregon! We won’t be here this year, but Doug Graham, Victoria Boutenko and more will!

Click here for more info of the Raw and Living Spirit Festival…

(3) Raw Spirit Festival in Sedona, Arizona from September 12-14th - This event is like the Woodstock of raw food. A bunch of fun and a bunch of activity. If you’re an ADD type like me, you’ll love this atmosphere in amazing Sedona. It’s our first time there, so we are really looking forward!

Click here for more info on the Raw Spirit Festival…

Maybe we’ll see you at one of these? :-)

And if we do, please come up and introduce yourself… we’d love to meet you!

Live Awesome!
Kevin
