Where I live, celery is pretty much inedible in summer. I feel like its a crucial component of the raw vegan diet, and I'm not really sure what to do without it. any suggestions?

Hey everybody, Right before, I opened an email from Dr Graham about cooked food. You probably also received it. It is a live also a live announcement for tonight. I don’t know what Dr Graham is going to exactly discuss, but I wanted to share my personal experience too. Because although to me, eating a raw vegan changed my life, giving myself a vitality I didn’t even know I could experiment. I never had experienced this high raw formula that many people do, so in a way maybe I couldn’t know about this exact formula. I had had talks with different people telling me, that they preferred it this way. For sustainability reasons, comfort ones, budget or taste ones. I never tried taking this path back, because to me it was clear, I had finally found what was permitting me to digest food, heal my women period troubles, like heavy heavy pain, despair mood to euphoria and more heavily, get my vitality back. Sport was even more fun, I felt even more connected to nature, more connected to myself, people and the world etc But, different things happened to me since summer 2024. I lived an important trauma, lived panick for months with all the symptoms that its include like insomnia etc, pushed myself to my extreme limits till burning out, but I won’t developed it, since I did different posts about those things. But yeah, to sum up I was living on a survival mode. And I was carrying a lot of things from the past, that I had never felt having the time to completely integrate. This impacted my state a lot. There are different posts about it. But what I want to share with you, is the changes I felt, when I began including some cooked food, since I couldn’t afford fully raw anymore, for my actual big appetite and little government help, while recovering. I tried to be as positive as I could about this change. I had the « chance » to have some people reassuring me about this. Because to me, it definitely felt despairing, scary and sort of like a step backwards. I say the chance, because, even though, I have more than the proof now, that cooked food is definitely not for me, even « just some potatoes ». It was so much of a difficult time at this period, on every aspect and even more financially, not knowing how I would live, that even thought those people were people that or didn’t know about raw food effects or even more importantly didn’t know about how it could affect my body, at least I had to eat and I would keep going.

If we accept the microbiome theory, we also have to accept the Pasteur's Germ Theory. Comments, thoughts ? :)

Hi everybody. Some weeks ago, I had a blood test that showed 33.6 Iron ferritine on a swiss scale of considered normality between 13 and 150. They say normal, but tend to worry when less than 70. I know that norms are different for us. I just wanted to check with you, if some people had already their iron having been measured by a blood test and what was the result when healthy? Even better if some women also have some results? Thank you, take care 🌠
