I recently attended a membership drive for the Institute of Integrative Nutrition.
No offense, but if someone were to tell me that they were not impressed,
I might have to agree with them. I might be opening myself up to a beating
via the keyboard from some angry members, but hear me out.
I feel that its way more of a business than a place for learning.
20 Classes...for almost $10,000.
Here's an idea:
Instead...Purchase:
1. - David Wolfe's Sunfood Diet Success System
2. - Victoria Boutenko's Greens for Life
3. - Gabriel Cousen's Spiritual Nutrition
4. - David Jubb's Secret of an Alkaline Body
Watch as many raw food videos on youtube as you can...
Eat lots of greens, superfoods, and fresh fruit...go light on the fat.
And with the extra $9,900...go on more than a few raw retreats with David Wolfe,
spend a month down at the Ann Wigmore Institute in Puerto Rico,
get a vita-mix, a food processor, and a wheatgrass juicer.
You will be 1000 times more advanced than most of the
alumni of IIN (with the exception of Chocolate Girl )...she's on top of her game.
I could be totally wrong though, but based on the people I talked to,
most were still swimming in SAD territory.
"Where do you get your protein?" "Dont you get cold in the Winter?"
"If you ever feel yourself craving meat, dont feel bad about giving in."
I get my protein from SUPERFOODS like hemp seed
(only from Manitoba Harvest...the best organic hemp promoter out there),
bee pollen, and algaes like chlorella, spirulina, and blue green algae.
Why dont they know about this?
I use the Vita-mix to make warm soups if I need to...but no,
I dont get cold. Thats where the superfood smoothies come in.
And thanks, but no thanks...no dead animals are passing by these lips.
No fire, pain, fear, and death will EVER enter this temple again.
I seriously apologize if I sound abusive. I dont want to promote
an environment of negative thoughts, but come on...
Im not going to pay that much money to hear about other "diets" anymore when its so
blatantly obvious that raw plant food (maybe with a few ants here and there)
is the diet to reach super-human levels again. The diet of uncooked food that every wild animal on the planet eats. The diet that our bodies evolved on. Isnt it so logical at this point?
Who can really argue with these points? MILLIONS OF YEARS eating raw plants,
compared to a sliver of time eating and cooking meat and eating processed foods.
When looking for advice, look for someone who has achieved the results
that you hope to achieve. Do you want to be at the level of health
that they have reached? Find those people when looking for health advice.
Andrew Weil looks like Santa Claus.
Think about that.
Its all about credibility.
Look for RESULTS.
