Hi JM,

Thankyou for this thread-very interesting. I just
want to say that I respect both Doug's and Harley's
different approaches to calories intake-neither 1 I
have done consistently over a long period of time to
judge. I agree that most people that are still
eating cooked food, do have underlining issues they
need to sort out and which in part they may be
dulling/cushioning by eating cooked foods.
I've also noticed that if I neglect my sleep or
don't eat enough calories, I tend to gravitate to
cooked food and it generally always catches up on
me, sooner or later. At the moment I am working on
almost complete elimination of salt and oil, which
is having an almost similar feel of when I go
completely raw. Without these 2 stimulants I am
slowly seeing cooked food for what it real is and my
attachment is fading, more so than when I repeatedly
tried to go cold turkey.

However no-one can deny that if people's basic physiological needs are met first,i.e. sugar, water,
sleep, then they will most likely find their issues
better to deal with and life in general. I think
that's what Freelee & Harley are trying to get
across. Sure, there are many other factors to
health, such as Doug lists in his 811 book, but many
of which can't be attained unless our basic needs
are met first. For e.g someone with social anxiety
will be better equipped to deal with social
situations if they are well rested, hydrated and
satiated.
