			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Tim at A Life Coach&#8217;s Blog has an interesting post about <a href="http://www.adaringadventure.com/blog/wordpress/uncategorized/the-skinny-of-raw-food/">The Skinny Of Raw Food</a>. The photos he has selected are reasons enough to go there but it is also a post well worth reading.</p>
<p>As I mention in <a href="/2008/11/09/milk-and-sugar/">Milk and Sugar</a> I have started to <a href="http://fortyplustwo.com/2008/11/09/how-to-make-gradual-changes/">gradually change</a> what I eat. I am a long way from eating raw food only, I am not even a vegetarian, and I find this comforting:</p>
<blockquote><p>Raw foodism actually isn’t really about eating raw. No, raw foodism is actually about being conscious about what you’re eating. Just paying attention.</p></blockquote>
<p>That is where I am, being conscious and paying attention to what I eat and how it makes me feel. What about YOU?</p>
<p><strong>Update January 29, 2009.</strong><br />
Jonathan Mead has an interesting post over at Zen Habits, <a href="http://zenhabits.net/2009/01/10-reasons-eating-raw-is-healthier-for-you-and-the-planet/">10 Reasons Eating Raw is Healthier For You and the Planet</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Yoga and my spiritual development makes me <a href="http://fortyplustwo.com/2008/11/09/how-to-make-gradual-changes/">change gradually</a> what I eat. The two things I focus on at present is to eliminate or at least cut down on sugar and dairy. When it comes to sweets I do not like the concept of artificial sweeteners, I avoid them completely.</p>
<p>Zen Habits has a great post about  sugar: <a href="http://zenhabits.net/2008/10/beat-the-sugar-habit-3-steps-to-cut-sweets-mostly-out-of-your-life/">Beat the Sugar Habit: 3 Steps to Cut Sweets (Mostly) Out of Your Life</a>. There is a list of the bad things with sugar as well as a list of tips on how to beat the sugar habit.</p>
<p>Epic Self raises an interesting question in <a href="http://epicself.com/2008/10/09/dare-we-eat-dairy/">Dare We Eat Dairy?</a>:</p>
<blockquote><p>When it comes to nutrition, the milk debate is probably as confusing and controversial as it gets. Is cow’s milk a cancer fighting, PMS subduing, osteoporosis preventing super food? Or is it just another multi-billion dollar industry working with the government to alter dietary guidelines in their favor?</p></blockquote>
<p>It also says:</p>
<blockquote><p>Today we tend to look to scientific evidence to tell us what and how much to eat. But, what happened to paying attention to how you personally feel after eating certain products? Tuning into the internal workings of your own body will give you some clues into how to moderate or in some cases eliminate dairy from your diet.</p></blockquote>
<p>My own experience is that dropping sugar and dairy makes me feel better.</p>
