A vegan diet is now considered the fastest growing lifestyle change in the United States. There are now estimated to be approximately 1.6 million currently who call themselves vegan in America, up 600%. I would like to start off stating it is my belief that, the body given the opportunity, can heal from anything. This said, each person's situation is unique and may require more or less of an effort on their part. I seen some wonderful healing occur but it is up to the individual to be a significant part of the process. One of the most, if not the most, important change that I would do is the change to a vegan diet during the healing process, especially one with little processed foods, thereby utilizing significantly raw fruits and vegetables and sprouted nuts and grains.This allows the body to heal without having to deal with the energy of digesting heavily processed foods and thereby directing the body's resources to healing the matters at hand. It also floods the body with a vast amount of micro-nutrients, thereby giving the system what it needs to rebuild. The first step to any healing is Cleanse and Nourish. Raw food enthusiasts claim that a raw diet increases energy levels, facilitates weight loss and improves overall health.Benefits: People who adhere to a raw food diet claim that it boosts their energy levels, improves immune functioning, helps them lose weight and cleanses their bodies. According to RawFoodLife.com, a raw diet increases the body's pH levels, making it more alkaline and increasing its energy.Raw diet proponents also claim that cooking destroys a food's natural enzymes -- components important for nutrition. A diet high in fruits and vegetables does contain many important vitamins and minerals lacking in a number of processed foods. I have since then stayed on the raw, vegan diet and my health has yet to plateau. Each day I feel more energy and endurance than I can remember ever experiencing before. I have found I need to eat only one meal a day with a few raw snacks in the evening.I rarely get hungry and I have plenty of energy before I ever have my main meal of the day. I now tell my patients about this diet routine and some of them are trying to switch, especially my cancer patients. As they progress in the program utilizing more and more of a raw, vegan diet we have found that their healing process is greatly accelerated and the medications we have them on are more effective. We are also teaching classes on nutrition with an emphasis on a raw, vegan diet.The successes we have seen with our patients who switch to a raw vegan diet has been seen in such issues as cancer, Lyme, Multiple Sclerosis, Lupus, Candida overgrowth, heavy metal toxicity, and so many more. I know, after 20+ years of medical practice that to treat a patient and not encourage them to change their diet is not giving them the tools they need to heal. With this diet, I have seen them not only heal from incredibly devastating disorders but also noted the condition did not return when they maintained a healthy diet.
