NEW EBOOK! My new ebook is now available.It is a comprehensive guide to preparing and transitioning to Raw Food. Get it here www.PreparetobeRaw.com Matthew Warner, The Live Foodist, discusses the connection between what we eat and how we think and feel. Matt offers consultation services and food package delivery to help anyone transition to a healthier diet of more raw living fruits and vegetables. www.LiveFoodist.com I struggled with “mental illness” for most of my life. As a young child I was considered ADD, as I grew into my teens I was diagnosed with Depression,Anxiety, and Bipolar Disorder. The doctors called it a diseas and said I would need indefinite medical treatment (drugs). After cleansing my body and nourishing myself with a optimal diet of raw fruits and vegetables I have found chronic joy and tremendous focus and energy. Anyone who struggles with mental illness can be healed by abstaining from eating conventional foods that contain dangerous chemicals and addressing their bodies physical health.

@Nigstesaba “psychological tests given (IDARE-1, IDARE-2 and CES-D) to the subjects demonstrate significant differences in anxiety and depression between groups. More anxiety and depression were reported in the no vegetarian groups in comparison with the vegetarian groups. In addition, diet analysis found more nutritional antioxidant agents levels in the vegetarian group” Bol Asoc Med PR 1998 Apr-Jun;90(4-6):58-68
Thanks for the inspiration to get my butt into gear again. =)
THANK YOU!!

im beginning a raw vegan life style what other things can we eat that are conceitered raw so i dont get bored on this life style?
Again, wonderful video with a great message.
Leave in harmony with nature, treat your body the way nature intended for it to be treated and you won’t believe how wonderful life can be.
Very good, very true points. I absolutely can relate to what you’re saying. I’ve been “there” myself and all along I felt that bringing about physical health is a major step towards feeling well (it may not be the only step that’s required, other steps may include changing your job, relationships, etc). Of course, I’m not 100% out of “there”, but I’m much, much better.
This is all fine and good, but there are some people out there with serious mental health issues that wont be cured or helped by raw foods. Sorry. I believe raw foods are amazing, but in this instance I totally disagree.
I feel the pits when my diet slips, but when I eat low fat raw food (almost all the time nowadays), then my body leaps for energy and joy. The brain is just like any other part of the body. Cut the crap out, and eat a very clean low fat diet then the rest of your body and your brain and sense of well being will bless you abundantly!
green smoothies (just greens and fruit) is the best thing for improving my mood, thinking, and vibrations. I can feel it right away. kale, parsley, spinach, romaine, cilantro, etc. ~~ not all together, but different green smoothie every day.
Great vid thanks! I totally agree with what you said.
This is so true. When I was a vegetarian, is when I was the happiest, and a much nicer person. Laughing. This morning I started raw, by having a bowl of brocolli with almond slivers and dried currants. It was a start, (gotta work on some receipes) rather than heading to Starbucks or Dunkin Doughnuts. The mind gets sharper, the body feels lighter, and so does it…..release all heaviness in Heart and Spirit!
Excellent video. I might tell people to watch this if they call me a health nut.
It’s funny because I ended up in the hospital for about a month…I had never felt so low and with my mind being so closed I didn’t think ‘hey you’ve been eating worse than you ever have!’, but in the back of my mind I was thinking that you are not healthy from eating bad and not working out. I didn’t think you have to do this now to change! It was that’s on the list. I would have done anything to get better, but at the time it was meds. I wish I knew then…
im pretty sure this isnt going to work but im going to try it anyway. thank you.
Hey man, just found your videos. Great topic on here because for 4 years I treated anxiety/depression with medication blindly following the doctors orders. Then a spark of light hit me 2-3 years ago and realized it was my eating habbits, going vegetarian COMPLETELY eliminated all anxiety symptoms, now I’m about half way into the Raw food thing.
Que guapo.
Awesome Awesome Awesome……!!!!!
I have been diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder since I was 14. I am 20 now. I agree with some of what you say. I think high raw or raw foods are much better than just increasing healthy food. I have been vegan, veg, and raw and I can say that raw would be the best IF one can handle the long detox. Just eating an organic unprossed whole cooked diet has done absolutely nothing for my mental health. .and i am on medicine because of it. medicine works. but i agree.. raw foods is that next step.
Working in different arenas where either directly and/or indirectly mental stability and/or health has to do with the problems why I’m dealing with people is highly probable that your theory is on the money. For example; Larger number of people in an area where good nutritional environment is absent tend to be more unstable in their reasoning and judgment, as opposed to those in a good nutritional environment. Love, Peace
God bless
Thank you for your information!
I have anxiety disorder for long time.
This might help, I will give it to try.
Food for thought!
Thank you this is a great video!
great video. you hit the nail on the head when describing depression, just being in a bad place
Good food is the greatest medication. I am the only raw foodist that I know of, living in the city that I live in. I’ve had all kinds of mental and physical issues in my life, and increasing the amount of living foods has helped me a tremendous amount. I’ve been trying so hard to recover from stress and my own toxic lifestyle, I just really wish that there were other individuals practicing this kind of lifestyle locally. I need a coach!
I ate out all the time…at Taco Bell, KFC, McDonalds….yeah it tastes sooooo good but it changed me. I got fat, I grew depressed and life was hell. I truelly believe good foods can benefit a person’s well being. I watch what I eat now and things are slowly but surely moving in the right direction.
@pitchjazz pfft, if you get ill in the USA and can’t do your job, you’ll get thrown onto the streets. No its not real =_=’

@pitchjazz No hun it’s not for real, just a rather clever spoof. Actually, one could take the word Irish out of the title–it would be just as funny and less racist.
is this for real. Irish people are so cruel to their mentally ill people. you wouldn’t get that in the good aul US of A
@destrics2210 But if you have short term memory loss, how do you remember that you have all of these? O:
