Back in the Kitchen AGAIN. Im in the flow! After diligent research and self-experimentation, I decided to add animal products back into my diet. My main focus is raw, grass-fed dairy products like fermented kefir and also butter. I feel much more grounded now. My mind is off food, and my cravings have completely vanished. I was a crazy sugar addict before this transition, and now Im so stable that I find it hard to believe. I see many people self-limiting because of the teachings of others instead of experimenting for themselves, and I also fell into this trap for a long time and went on many ups and downs because of it. I see WAY too many vegans going on yo-yo diets and I understand now why it happened to me. If you study the work of Weston Price, you will realize that different types of people need different types of food. A Polynesian will need more carbs than an Irishman. We need to look towards the ratios of our ancestors and then take it from there. The fact that Im eating cacao and goji berries (which clearly wasnt in my ancestor’s diet) is not lost on me…trust me. This is about bringing two worlds together. Im trying to join the worlds of vegan superfoods with high quality animal products with this meal. We can take the best of both worlds and make it work for us. We dont have to pick sides! That is junior-high school mentality. Its a thick dairy kefir, and I then mix in: Goji Berries, Shredded Coconut Bee Pollen and Cacao Nibs. On top of that, I give a few …

I have salt envy! I was just listening to the ElixirCraft mp3 and Mr. V was talking about how those salts. I’m excited to try them.

Great attitude! You are a breath of fresh air ; )

Colostrum is great, and yummy
What are your thoughts on raw whey protein? Everyone has mixed reviews on raw whey. Do you use it in elixirs, smoothies, etc?

Great food, wise words

I DEFINITELY agree with you! We ARE students because there is ALWAYS something new coming to us and to learn about. Life is constant learning.
I also have recently discovered and started enjoying Milk Kefir and Water Kefir….FAB!
THANKYOU very much for this GREAT recipe idea!!

I truly enjoy your comments in this video. I agree that it’s important to remain open to new ideas and to remain a student.
I recently did the same as you in mixing the different salts I’ve collected into a little grinder.
When I travel, finding local salts is a priority. My friends are somewhat riddled when I do this.
I have some salt from South America, France, Italy, and Asia…but none from Hawaii. The various flavors are multidemensional, if that is possible.

You are on point on how to keep your cup half full so that you can continue to learn.
I truly believe that philosophy. There are so many different modalities out there that may or may not work for you but I know for me, I have to walk the walk before I can talk the talk. Much love and Peace Rocky

good that you are open to other teachings about food. i got sick as a vegan and MOST strict vegans and raw foodists i see are sick, weak & out of balance.
try to force an Inuit Indian into a raw vegan diet and tell them they wont be able to connect to the spiritual side of life…they will laugh at you then maybe eat you ;-]
November 2nd, 2009 at 4:45 pm
right on man…Ive been truly enjoying your videos lately.
Great point about not being able to connect to the spiritual side because of eating flesh, Im totally with you on that. Who are we to think “our” diet is superior? Who the heck knows?
Thanks again and keep spreading the light, it is totally appreciated by all.

“The wise man knows what he knows not.”
Thanks Anthony, I’m loving kefir lately (and not to get too technical, but I believe its pronounced “kay-feer”-well, my romanian husband pronounces it that way.) Is it not raw if i get it from whole foods? i’ve just got some grass-fed goat’s kefir and I’m on a raw fast, is this technically not raw unless you make it yourself?
Really digging the humility and modesty coming from you!
November 4th, 2009 at 1:58 pm
Hey, I was just wondering where you got those amazing wooden bowls from? I´m also looking for big water bottles like the one you have, and was also wondering where to get one of those ; ) Thanks so much, and great video!

Could you please shed to us what you ate when you were a raw foodist or vegan? How long were you on it for?
December 3rd, 2009 at 8:04 am
Things have changed big time since I featured you on Sweet Raw-La-La! Thanks in part to your influence. Now I am “The Health Exhibitionist”.
Remember when you told me to remind you about The Raw Built Body Project? Well here’s a sweet little reminder. Nudge, nudge. <3

Great information and wonderful choices. I am exploring the raw food lifestyle and have found many great benefits. I like your approach and love that you advocate tuning into your OWN body and using information from others as just that….information.

Keep learning and developing is great advice and a great video. “Kefir” is a new
food source for me, so thanks for posting this video, I will give it a try.
