Oct 2012

my daughter went to a raw foods diet for one month prior to her wedding to lose a few extra pounds (she wasn't fat in the first place though). At her wedding reception, she went back to her normal vegetarian diet, and did experience a tummy upset. She said she felt like her stomach was full of lead. I think the same thing happened: her digestive enzymes were all adapted to the raw, dairy free diet, and when other food arrived in her stomach it just sat there. She was just fine in a day or two.
