A note from Storm on why we age:
We are excited to introduce "The Raw Vegan" DVD Video Magazine. This is like having our own TV show that you can play anytime! I think that this is going to be a great way to use technology to bring people together and help the Raw Food Movement go forward. In the next issue we will be adding a chat room so that all of the people who get the Raw Vegan can not only communicate with the writers of the different articles via email but they will now be able to communicate with each other. No other magazine in the world has this communication ability. The first issue is dedicated to giving an overview of why we should go raw. It also contains a lot of footage from the raw food retreat that we put on in Ojai California last February. It contains articles about working out and movement which is directly related to the raw food diet. You can have the best diet in the world but if you don't have a work out schedule then the diet alone will not give you the results that you are looking for.
In the next issue we are doing an in-depth study on aging and why raw food is the best anti-aging program in the world. We will explore in-depth the three cycles that make up the living cycles of our lives. When we are young our bodies make more cells than we wear our so we grow. When we reach middle age we replace cells at the same rate that we wear them out and when we reach old age then we wear out cells faster than we replace them. The rejuvenation of cell growth is totally dependent upon the quality and vitality of our diets.
When we eat cooked food in which all of the enzymes have been destroyed then our bodies must struggle to find enough nutrients to replace our worn out cells. Over time we experience a loss of energy, chronic fatigue and high levels of toxins within each cell. By eating cooked food it is much harder for the cells to do the job that they have to do and replace each other at the same rate that they would if we eat a raw vegan diet.
When we eat a totally raw vegan diet then the aging process is greatly slowed down and we are able to retain our youth for a much longer period of time. In many cases we have found that people who go raw (even people who have eaten cooked food for years) are able to reverse the aging process and turn back the hands of time. In the next "The Raw Vegan" DVDzine we will outline the concepts behind slowing down the aging process. We will explain how when you add a workout plan to the diet plan you will get immediate results.
The human body has 15 pints of blood and a huge pump (the heart) to move it through our bodies. We also have 45 pints of lymph and no pump to move it through our bodies. The only way that we are able to move the lymph through our bodies is through muscle contractions that squeeze the lymph through a system of one way valves. The lymph carries major toxins from our bodies to our lungs where we are able to expel them from the body via our breath. When we don't move or exercise then gravity pulls the lymph downward and it becomes stagnant and the toxins that it would carry out of our bodies become stagnant as well. This accumulation over time turns into premature aging. In the next DVD we will detail a whole new system of working out that not only moves the lymph through the body but also balances and tunes the various muscle systems throughout the body and reduces stress.
In the next issue we also have a section devoted to why we should support organic farmers and farmer's markets. On October 19th I went down to the Mississippi Delta and Louisiana Bayou and filmed the effects that large corporate farming is having on the land, the residents, and the little farmers. The results are devastating. Whole towns have lost their livelihood. And the effects of chemical farming is taking its toll not only on the land but on the people as well. We did a lot of interviews with the man on the street and I think that the whole thing adds up to a very compelling documentary about why we should at all costs support our local organic farmers. And finally in the next issue we will be starting a network of organic food resources so that people who don't have sources of good organic food in their areas can order through a list of organic farmers that we are compiling.
This DVDzine plays in your computer or DVD Player like an hour-long TV show dedicated to Raw Foods!
