So i stocked up on fruits and veggies last night and started my all raw diet today. Has anyone ever tried or heard any first hand experience about this diet?

Are you intending this as a short-term fast or as a long-term eating plan?

I'm not intentionally on a raw diet, but I personally prefer to eat raw fruits and vegetables to anything else. I eat salads for lunch and dinner, and this is exactly what I want. I do eat cheese and meats, it's just that I'd choose raw veggies if they are available. I've been eating this way for almost 2 years now, and I'm loving it!

I don't think you can go wrong, as long as you are incorporating other foods for a well-balanced diet. As long as you feel well and enjoy what you are eating, you should be fine.

I was going to try to make it a long term eating plan. However, im not sure i will be able to find enough variety to keep satisfied. Guess i shall soon see.

I'm all with Allys for including lots of raw veggies and fruits in your diet, but personally I don't think most people can maintain health eating only raw veggies and fruits.
