Who do we go to that won't just want to treat the symptoms? Does anyone else have this? We are getting nervous about going places because there isn't much time when the bowel wants to empty and there is not really any consistency of timing with it. How do you all cope and is this common? I have been raw for over a year this time and BMs were fine until I did a 40 day juice fast in December 2024. I was incontinent every day of both bowel and bladder and wore depends during the fast but over the last nine months I have graduated to a small pad because my butt "leaks" clear fluid to green fluid and I never know when but it can soak my underwear if I don't have a pad there. I never know when I'm going to dump a bunch of diarrhea and when my gut lets me know it is coming I have very little time to get to a toilet. I am fine seeing an MD but I want someone raw or who won't tell me I have to eat cooked food. My spouse eats cooked food and he is having the same problem with pain in his gut. I don't have any pain.Both of us love being active walking and biking. The walking definitely stimulates the bowels so we have to take measures to avoid wetting and soiling outselves like wear depends or take stuff to go in the bushes and not leave toilet paper on the ground. I take zip lock bags and bring it back home. Please help. I kept thinking it would heal itself because I love that my bowels are active after so many years of constipation (50) and another 15 years of better but not great BMS on the SAD. WEnt vegan five years ago and things started to change for the better. Now I've gone too far the other way.

Hey everybody, I have a question about greens. Do you sometimes only have cucumber/zucchini or other type of vegetables? I am used to have some sort of green everyday like lettuce, arugula, spinach etc but tonight, I am only having zucchini noodles and broccoli with some tomatoes, celery and hemp seed sauce and I don’t feel to have a salad aside. Is it important to have leafy greens everyday? Or does cucumber, zucchini, celery and other vegetables count too? Enjoy!

I found this on YouTube today and it's scaring the heck out of me. Dr Greger is saying seven fruits that can give you heart disease. What is your opinion of this YouTube Dr Graham? https://youtu.be/ylDNJURvE-c?si=0HIUt18c6ks1Ozb2

Hi guys, Since October this year, I lived big stress due to emotional shock coupled with stressful conditions. Months of panicks, insomnias, then got a cold that took long to recover, never really fully recovered in breath etc… Beginning of the year, I tried to workout again, for long moment I had to content of walking or some little little exercise. During spring, I felt really tired, and definitely pushed with school, obligations I felt I had and because I had the impression that sport was one of the last thing I had on this situation, it was difficult for me to let it aside. Multiple times, I had to sleep up to 16 hours was feeling really stressed, but yeah was so used to, that I continued with everything. Up to final April. I decided to do a partial school break for a week, working less for it and not working out, only walking. Definitely I was working out way way less than I used to, but at this moment every week seems to manifest a drop in energy. End of April, I thought about overtraining, because of not respecting my state and also summer before that, while I was living big big stress, I was never physically stopping. Working as a waitress, working out intensively, feeling insecure where I was living and trying to support mentally ill person. I thought about 1 month overtraining because it was the moment it dropped the most. Actually since October I was not feeling myself anymore. Me that used to feel super energized and enjoying moving, I was feeling like an automatic pilote. Since some weeks, I thought about burnout. My nervous system is crazy, now a little less, but very thing is disordered. I haven’t been able to walk more than 1 km, feel very tired, my appetite is so so crazy, sometimes have to eat up to 5000 calories, when actually not moving at all. Sleep is better but always kind of unbalanced. Of course, esting like this and not being able to move, i gaines weight. Don’t know the number but can’t wear moste cloths anymore. It doesn’t seem to be emotional eating. Definitely, when being woke up at 3 am to eat, although having eaten a big satisfying meal for dinner… nothing enjoyable. I stick to 8/1/1 because fruits have been an intuition before coming to know 80/10/10. It helped me with lots of issues, but I have to admit, sometimes, I felt close to abandon myself to an hospital, but no. I am seeing doctor since then. Since burnout i had drop in b12 and iron, iron more than half. I am taking supplementations and had another blood test yesterday to see about thyroid. The doctoress found my throat seems larger. To be honest, I find everything larger now, so don’t know haha laughing but definitely, omg, it is causing me pain to see me in this state. Me that had planned maybe get a sportive coach, move, get a job and changing my studies for something more aligned with the direction I want to take, i find myself far from this. I accept it and know that I need time, to heal. But I want to heal well. See what has to do with rest, sleep good, meditate, seeing with some alternative medicines for somatic aspect. Also, I am going to see a cardiologist, because of this heart rate not calming. But I would like to make sure I am not missing something. About thyroid, I thought about iodine. I don’t want to feel confused on internet or social medias, I stopped searching that much. But yes I wanted to ask you, people eating 80/10/10 fruits and vegetables, nuts and seeds, if things like these have already happened to you? What did you do? And espacially iodine? I am going to see in function of blood test results, but I talked with a raw vegan nutritionist that told me about urine test for iodine.

Dr Doug.. what do you think of Mango Wozaks passing away being a fruitarian all those decades of clogged arteries at 64 years old. I just can't wrap my head around it and I can't understand it.
