Starting Off All Raw On A Sproutarian Diet

The key to starting off eating 100% raw is to consume as many sprouts as you like. Old habits die hard (over eating), so take it easy and eat as much as you want...pack it down until you feel full. The easiest way to stick to all raw is to blend most of your food so you can consume large amounts of food. lf you try eating all the food it will take far too many hours to do, and if you juicing all of your food you will get hungry at the start and begin to cleanse too hard, so the key is to mostly blend, eat a small amount and to do some juicing. lf you mostly blend you will slowly detox and remain full so you won't be tempted to eat other heavier foods. Now...eating loads of blended sprouts isn't ideal (over eating never is ideal), but it is o.k to do until you adjust. After a short while of blending on the sproutarian diet you will notice you are getting cleaner and cleaner inside, and soon you will need less and less food. After a while you will be able to drink more sprout juices and drink less blended drinks. And after a longer time you will require far less food than you ever thought was possible. Even surviving on green juices, seed pastes, algaes and sea vegetables will be enough to build good muscle if you do 30+ minutes of weight bearing exercises, but try doing resistance exercises and then following by drinking wheatgrass juice or sunflower green juice and green algae within thirty minutes after exercising because consuming high amino acid foods straight after weight exercise builds muscle the fastest. Dr Ken Cooper with over 40 years of clinical research experience in exercise says that in order to be truely healthy we need 60 - 90 minutes of weight bearing exercise and 3 times a week, and 35 minutes of aerobic exercise 5 times a week.

The Highest Quality Meals Possible

The ultimate aim is to reach a stage where you completely stop blending and mainly consume food that consists of sprouted juices and cold pressed sprouted seed/nut pastes and have some sprouts eaten.

Blending has been shown scientifically to kill much of the nutrition in the food (more on this in another chapter), so it is best not to rely on blended sprout drinks for optimal nutrition. The key is to try and have an eating plan like the following:

Starting out is tough
Staring out on the sproutarian diet is a shock to the system because you will be planting and watering sprouts every single day. Remember....you will be living on this food, so planting or soaking the occasional jar or tray of sprouts will no longer do. You may have to soak five jars of various seeds a night, water the big rotation of sprouts you already have, plant some seeds on trays of soil etc. This all takes time. At first it is a struggle because you won't be used to such a different lifestyle, but after six months it will start getting much easier and will feel normal (you are basically becoming a farmer and will have longer days because you are a farmer like many people were 100 years ago, and less time for t.v and other frivolous pursuits). And as you get much MUCH more energy, closer to nature and begin feeling much MUCH better, your time planting and attending to the sprouts will become a favourite pass time and you will start to sing with lots of pure joy because you feel so good and enjoy tending to your sprouted food. lf you stick with it, it WILL become much much easier. To get fully organised will take many months, so don't worry....it is a process that takes time. Lots of various seeds to collect, sprouters and jars and gauze to buy, soil trays to buy, water filter that waters the soil based sprouts, pressure sprays, lots of shelves to build for the sunflower greens/wheatgrass/peashoot greens/chia seed greens, and lots of racks for the soil-less sprouts like alfalfa, lentils etc. Take your time, DON'T stress, and don't rush the process. It WILL be worth every minute of it. You will be required to work 1 - 2 hours a day on average to manage your sprout garden.

If you really want to experience the true energy from raw, this IS the best way to do it. No other way of eating compares to the sproutarian diet. But you need to stop being tied down by your stomach and taste buds, and you need to stop making compromises in raw eating. Train your taste buds to accept hard core raw sprouted foods and sea vegetables and the world will be your oyster! Also make sure you perfectly combine these foods for maximum effect.

Compromises in raw eating is:

  • food bought from farmers markets and stores
  • adding lots of oil/fat to the raw diet
  • eating lots of fruit and vegetables
  • incombining foods
  • blending
  • dehydrating foods
  • mixing lots of foods togeather
  • high sugar/sweet foods/sweet fruits

If you avoid the compromises above and stick with the hard core foods, you will develop a sense of well being that will surpass your wildest dreams. So many make a sacrifice and go 100% raw, but so many people don't get the magic feelings of super well being that they dream of because they have a raw vegan diet full of compromises. lf you are going to do a raw vegan diet, don't do it 30% right, do it 100% all the way and reap the full benefits and live the way you are supposed to live.

Fresh water micro-algae - the highest level foods

Spirulina blue-green algae: (top left) - third most effective algae according to 25 years of clinical research at HHI using over 100,000 people as subjects. But must be used sparingly because it contains high levels of tannins and phosphorous.

Chlorella green algae: (botton of pic) - second most effective algae according to 25 years of clinical research at HHI using over 100,000 people as subjects.Essential for the modern age as a cleanser of heavy metal pollution. This is such an amazing food that l could write a book on this. It's my personal favourite.

AFA blue-green algae: (top right) - most potent land food discovered and by far the most effective food used according to 15 years of clinical research. Scientific research on this algae is simply astounding...could write all day about this food.

Sea vegetables - the second highest level foods

Dulse {purple sea vegetable} (left) - great for energy, mind and spirit. The clear winner!!!

Nori {green sea vegetable} (right) -

Wakame {purple sea vegetable} (left) - mind and energy food.

Kelp {brown sea vegetable} (right) - a very strong taste and great energy food.

Please note: the foods above need to be soaked in water so the swell up and become soft. Now...being the most potent foods doesn't mean that we should be only surviving on those foods, it doesn't work that way. These foods are the top offs to the diet. Land foods should always be the primary foods with the water based foods used in small amounts to complete the diet to maximise the possibility of getting full nutrition and health.

Are you finding you have enough nutrition from the sprout based diet?

Alex, once you work your way up to about 2 tubs a day of sprouts, and juicing vegetables and taking algae -- I've found my self quite full and satiated. It's surprising how much your palate will adapt and you will really crave these foods. The fact is these are real foods -- they have: Hormones, Oxygen, Phytonutrients, and Enzymes all intact. The old nutritional paradigm of foods being carbs, fats or proteins is incomplete and outdated and when you use the technology to see the real-time effects of these foods on the blood stream, it is just no comparison. There is something magical about when you sprout a food, that makes the vitamin and mineral content just sky rocket. For example, sprouted broccoli is about 50x's more powerful than broccoli itself. The sprout version of any food is way more nutrient-dense then it's full grown counterpart.

Two of these sized containers a a day (packed full of sprouts) is a good start, and once you get your sprout production up, juicing the excess is the next step.
