Hello
I m 33 years old and i m experimenting on diet since i m 17. I think a problem is that many people try a new diet for some short time(lets say shift to a vegan or rawfood nutrition),and then feel weak or bad and then decide that they are missing an input of lets say fat,meat or vitamin b12 or whatever. The new nutrition cant be good for them because they are feeling bad. My experience is that the body(not to talk of the mind…which plays the most importend role when changing your diet),needs time to adapt to the new input. If you start a rawfood diet it needs time to detox ,therefor you feel sometimes bad and hungry,but after 1 and then after 3 months you feel completely different to the first days or weeks after your change.You eat then much less and your body accomodates to the smaller but cleaner amounts of fat/ proteins/ vitamins …/..The food is of a higher Quality because it is as nature does offer it to us and is not changed,combined “denaturated”(means for example heated) artificially.
Although our body can deal with a lot for some time it is made for natural food(leaves, fruit, nuts,herbs,….)and the natural food is made for us.
I do always have more Power and Energy and Tranquility when eating raw.I work physically very hard and can feel the difference very strongly. But yet i did not manage to go raw for a really long time because of my “gourmet – grievings”.
i was vegetarian for more than 3 years, whithin 2 years of vegan,and tried different other diets. The really big change is 100 % rawfood with wild herbs and leaves and fruit .

Lisa and Carla,

I agree men seem to have easier time changing their diet. Not just vegetarian / vegan diet — I’m currently working to completely shake of all sugar / sweeteners from my diet, and it’s so damn hard. (And I successfully eliminated all caffein from my diet last year.) I did some research and some say female hormones are more unstable and this can affect the way we feel hunger and cravings. Haven’t found anything that says vegetarian conversion is harder for women, but it’s very possible!
