So Kristina just posted a bento box video and she uses rolled oats and olives! Nobody tell her those aren't fully raw. And that you can't close the boxes if you over fill them like she does. And that the sliced bananas and avocado are gonna turn brown and gross lol
@@Food5Thought oh god, I once bought frozen kale and expected it to taste like spinach because it looked similar in that form and I was sooo disappointed 😂
Yeah when Kristina's video came out about that that part made me angry. I was suicidal for twenty years and even though I am not anymore, I did get onto her about not really knowing what it really is like to be suicidal and she asked me "but did you watch the video?" And I did. Twice.
@@humko3924 I don't think she meant it like an accusation. I never watched her videos, but she seems like a sweet person. I got it more like she thinks it's a crime because your life is precious, you are precious, and it's a "crime" to take a life? That's how I understood it. It certainly did not come across as an accusation - to me.
Sooo tired of seeing this mushroom juice on every single vegan channel... I know they've gotta make money and sponsorships are the primary money maker for TH-camrs, but this particular brand is so overdone. It's especially annoying with all of the pseudoscience they spout about the product - I honestly can't understand how this doesn't count as false advertising! Edited to add: how can hyper-processed industrially-produced powdered sterilised mushroom be considered "raw"? Same question with the highly processed protein powders the raw vegans all chug on a daily basis. Just eat some beans!
It’s a scam. There are all these things you can buy now in the supermarket for less than $5 a pound that used to be sold as miracle health foods for over $5 an ounce. It’s the same with these.
Vegan Lifter you’ll never understand until you try it yourself, it’s pretty cool. I’ve tried it before just to see how I felt and I liked it. However I also feel great eating whole Foods Lol
n Dez I tried it for 4 days and fucking hated it. I was freezing (ND gets down to -20*F) and couldn’t get enough food in me to save my life even though the volume I was eating made me look 10x worse that I did. Eating non-whole foods, 100+g of protein a day of tasty tasty mock meats and bread vegan diet is what works for me 👍🏼 (BTW I’ve lost 25lbs eating this way)
megan nice!!! So happy for you! I get that it can be hard, for me it was hard too but I’m a little extra and very hard on myself when it comes to discipline so I wanted to try it lol. I def eat lots of junk food lol
According to the app and recipe for the salad, these are the ingredients in the "balsamic dressing": *2 tbsp raw apple cider vinegar * 2 tbsp lemon juice * 3 tbsp raw coconut nectar * 1 pinch pink himalayan salt
i gotta be super honest. i was like raw kristina, and honestly thank goodness i'm not longer a strictly raw vegan. for only a year, i was absolutely obsessed with my "health" and thought that my body was full of mucus and acid that i had to get rid of through dry fasting, water fasting, lemon juice fasting, grape juice fasting, and only eating primarily raw fruit. i was super into dr robert morse (nice man, but man i was really mislead), and bought a ton of herbs thinking that by consuming this, i will "clear up the mucus in my body, move my lymphatic system, clear up the sulfur in me". i know it sounds crazy but when you get in it, you just get suuuuuper deep in it. that being said, i also thought that the only way to stay thin was by only eating raw food...however it is NOT satisfying at ALL. i would eat TONS of salad and fruit at the end of the night and at the end of my raw vegan state, i was binging a ton on "raw chocolate" and coconut cream. the problem with me was i just really warped my thoughts around food. food was no longer just food. it was good or bad. i convinced myself eating steamed broccoli was detrimental to my health. or mixing fruit and veggies was highly acidic for my body and therefore bad. it was nuts. i was nuts. lol. i'm happy to say i'm just a normal person now but man...watching people like kristina or even ellen at one point makes me sad because i know what they're going through. food should just be food. the moment we start compartmentalizing it is when we develop this unhealthy relationship with food which could lead to other things. wow sorry for the long spiel.
orangej I was the same, juice fasts, at home colonics, weird “superfoods” that cost me £££. I feel so much more balanced now I eat soy, beans, fats, oils, salt etc.
@@catkin-z8g so a normal diet means eating chicken? And you assume we are eating that? Uhm okay. Dont care why you care or take the time to right that. I guess being vegan isn't enough for some pple who just need an excuse to be a judgmental jerk
@@DoctorMommy24 ofcourse it does. most people eat chicken and normal means conforming to a standard; usual, typical, or expected. plant based is abnormal whether you follow the `nutrition facts` diet or the fully raw one. atleast the fully raw one could be considered normal in comparison with other species of animal where as the `nutrition facts` diet conforms with the carnist diet replacing the steak with a `vegan steak`. it is vegan aswell whereas the `nutrition facts` diet contains synthetic chemicals and herbicides etc. that do not conform to the definiton of veganism as wholesome foods. if we want to encourage normality then eating chicken is the obvious outcome and we have to discourage atypical diets like `nutrition facts` as being eating disorders indicative of mental illness. there must be an imbalance in your brain chemistry talking about micrwaved broccoli and cooking tomatoes with tofu burgers and taking vitamin d supplements etc. its orthorexia obsessing over `nutrition facts` counting calories and checking labels for animal products. fully raw is just the thin edge of the wedge they want you to stick to your `nutrition facts` diet and go carnist. they obviously realise the raw foodies are not going to take much notice but you lot will be worried about the stigma of being associated with crazy raw foodists and gulp down your lab meat and roast it on hot coals and then you definitely wont be vegan by any stretch of the imagination. like really do you even believe this bs about " TONS of salad and fruit at the end of the night and i was binging a ton on "raw chocolate" and coconut cream." really like a tonne of coconut cream and still starving hey. sounds really bad it must mean cooking the chocolate and coconut would really help to make it fill you up more. all those people who survived on coconuts must have been pullying the hair out trying to make a fire to cook their coconuts. maybe its even true but that would only suggest the cooking really does cause some serious issues.
@@Candiedcurlies35 looool! I honestly thought for a second about it - can she drink tea? Is boiling hot water forbidden, too? It all seems so insane, i dont know where rawfoodists draw their imaginery line
My high speed blender still couldn't puree the stalks properly after I'd boiled the kale for over an hour in soup...Does being raw vegan give you superhuman teeth?!
I fucking love cooked kale but eating it raw wouldn’t ever cross my mind. My favourite way to cook it is by frying some onions, once they’re browned chuck the cut-up kale in there, add some water and put the lid on. Once the kale is soft dilute some mustard in water, add that as well as salt pepper and marjoram. I also like to add diced smoked tofu. The combination of kale, mustard and marjoram is perfect 👌🏻
@Jo Pearson Yeah, when I first started hearing about them on Rich Roll interviews, I was thinking it was a cool idea. Now every TH-camr is sponsored by them, hahaha
Swayze yooo this hairstyle looks so good on you! When you're deciding to cut your hair next time and you don't know what style to get or anything, get this! Best hairstyle of yours that I've ever seen.
@what ever your choosing to watch the video. Your allowing her to make money from you watching her video, even though you hate her content. You are literally supporting her by watching her content and commenting.
@melissa cabrera I get that, but FRK has been using (adverising) this specific blender as it helps "retain more nutrients." It's a bullshit claim. Also, yes smoothies can be a great way to get more fruits/veggies in, and they can also be a great way to get excess calories in as well. If you don't like bananas, then you don't need to eat them.
Eh, I tend not to buy into that sort of thing. Like UV's recent video RE: vegan carbonara, people tell me some dish "isn't" that dish without meat, cheese, etc. So she's probably just using that word because it resembles a vinaigrette. Not advocating for a raw diet or anything. I eat cooked foods for like every meal. And oil very regularly.
@@kateliness2 I get what you're saying but vinaigrette is mostly oil. So there's no point calling it that if it's not gonna be _anything_ like it. There's still such a word as "dressing" right ?😂
The word "vinaigrette" is a diminutive of vinaigre(vin=wine, aigre=sour), which means vinegar in French. The most important ingredient is the vinegar. While a vinaigrette will *typically* have oil and seasonings, it can be made without oil I guess, although I wouldn't find that very satisfying taste-wise.
You should do a taste test of four sigmatic. I just want to hear an honest review of how horrible it tastes. There’s no way it’s actually good. Also, I live in Texas. That stuff may fly in the fall when it’s warm but, it’s cold and drizzly here in Jan-feb. No thanks, I need all the warm things.
You should react to her newest video! She made bento boxes and one had oatmeal in it and another had olives, both of which I didn't think was included in a raw vegan diet.
I think the issue with olives is that they are packed in brine and salty which some raw vegans take issue with. I've heard some say they can't be considered raw because of that. I've watched many of Kristina's recipe/what I ate in a day videos and I've never seen her eat olives. I'm no expert on what is and isn't allowed on a raw vegan diet though.
This seems a bit nit picky to me. Does everyone hit their RDA on everything every single day always? Seems a bit unreasonable to pick her apart for being 3% low on a single amino acid.
If your consistently not meeting your nutritional needs then your eventually going to be deficient. And there was more than one thing wrong with this diet. Plus She can only measure the nutrients based on what's in the videos that kristina makes, so if Kristina's eating a perfectly balanced diet everyday no one would know unless she made a video about it.
@@ell-ell_elI yes, but the question is nit picking, do you think that everyone but Kristina have perfect diets? that Unnatural vegan herself has a perfect diet? She does look sick in camera... this is not an attack towards you a.i.c, you are right in what you say, it's just that you responded to the first comment that commented on Unnatural Vegan's nazi attitude. But I mean... come on! She got to the point to even criticize Kristina's app for not being available for android!! alluding that that was another thing that Kristina is doing wrong because people that use apple products are bad (because apple has a bad customer service ?!?!?! ). Maybe Unnatural vegan is 100% healthy and perfect in every aspect while Kristina is the worst thing that ever walked on earth... but my god, for someone so healthy and illuminated Unnatural has quite a petty and intolerant attitude towards everyone else.
@@angelap.8160 You seem to be the one nitpicking. Her saying that kristinas app is only supported on apple isn't against kristina, she point out that she doesn't like apple. She cant criticize that app because she hasn't used it, because she cant get the app because its only supported on apple device which she doesn't own.
@@angelap.8160 "Nazzi attitude" I dont understand what you mean by that. She made a video about a TH-camr who does a raw diet properly and meets pretty much all of her nutritional needs.
@@angelap.8160 Also, a long time ago UV predicted that kristina would be moving away from her extreme diet and i think this is just keeping tabs on kristina. UV dislikes some of kristinas beliefs like it being unnecessary to supplement for b12 but she likes her as a person, shes practically said as much in other videos.
I need to stop reading the comment section on these videos. If I see another comment from a bored teenager who thinks he knows a lot about nutrition because he saw a video from a random guy who eats raw animal corpses I’m gonna lost faith in humanity 😂
I admire your work so so much, and I would love to know where do you get your knowledge from? Like how did you got from crazy raw vegan to informed, unnatural vegan?
mikandra kate she always refers to research primary, review, metareview etc. When you want to find something out search google and look for the most credible sources. The more informed you become the deeper you can get into the research it all comes from. PubMed, Google scholar and other specific research search engines are available when you’re ready
The thing about sodium is what a lot of people seem to get wrong, and is a very big reason why it perplexed me to see freelee and durianrider claim that you get enough salt from fruits and veggies. I also cycle. I have gone on 1-2 hour rides in the hot sun, sometimes more, and when I didn't increase sodium intake, it would do a number on me. In fact, one time I went on a ride without increasing my sodium intake enough, and I had become physically ill from it. I was in the hospital with what I thought was food poisoning, turns out my blood pressure was in the toilet. This is why it bugs me that people like freelee were telling people no, don't eat salt, salt's bad for you! Yeah, excess salt is bad for you, that's not good advice for highly active people who work out in the hot sun. SOdium is a problem when you are sedentary and live off of highly processed meals and fast food.
Okay, I live in the deep south, a small town outside of New Orleans, and still the thought of eating cold soup in the winter time makes me so uncomfortable
LMFAO, swayze I appreciate your ability to ignore these trolls, I have been scrolling through the comments and they are so extra😂😂 stay strong and keep calling out the BS
When she started using Sunwarrior Protein Powder and claiming to be “fully raw” I was like 🤔🤔🤔 There had been a lot of things about her and her beliefs that started turning me off but the cherry on the top was the debacle that was the BMW “giveaway.”
Prepare for incoming "oh my gosh leave Kristina alone, she's so positive and you're just jealous and negative blah blah and you're OBSSESED with her" comments.
The Choline issue is not well nailed down. When setting the RDA, it was determined 550mg/day was sufficient but 50 mg/day was not sufficient so they set the RDA at 550. What about 200mg/day? It may well be enough but we don't know for sure. Keep an eye on your liver function. Choline deficiency will show up there pretty fast. In general, I don't necessarily take the official RDA's to be the end all be all of what we really need.
Of your binge eating a bunch of fruit, then your going to gain weight due to all of the sugar. It depends on what your eating. Thats also how they make some of these diets seem appealing "eat however much you want and never gain weight"
Binge eating isn't just physically unhealthy, it's mentally unhealthy. Eating tons of food and feeling like you have no control is not a good thing even if you don't gain weight. I think a raw diet actually promotes those behaviors instead of fixing them. This creates an unhealthy relationship with food.
Well, I realise that. I guess I frased it wrong, it's just that I noticed the correlation between raw foodists and binge eaters. Its a "perfect way" to "take care of the problem" without actually solving the mental issue.
The tone of your voice as well as the facts proven by studies that take the shape of the words coming out of your mouth have a really relaxing impact on my body. I watch you to calm down and steady my nerves after listing to all of those quacks and home-grown TH-cam nutritionists and doctors.
Swayze, is there any way you could make a video on DHA/EPA omega 3 precursors? I'm really worried about the amount of omega 3 that I'm getting on a vegan diet.
@melissa cabrera Flax and Canola are high in Omega 3s. So there is no need for animal products to obtain the Omegas. How exactly are the supplements placebos? Do they not contain Omegas? Or is that your body can't make use of the Omegas? Can you point me to some good sold info on why Omega/DHA supplements are bad?
@melissa cabrera I use flax seed meal. For me I don't see an issue with the conversion. If I had an omega issue I would just consume more flax or canola. Seems simple enough.
@melissa cabrera Which supplements were the studies looking at? Were they comparing vegan supplements to fish? Major dietetic associations all agree that vegan diets can be healthy if done right. So I am certainly not convinced I need fish in my diet. I wouldn't be eating fish regardless as I don't like the taste.
I don't think you should be commenting on how many calories Kristina eats, especially when you're saying that almost 2,200 calories is on the high end for a woman, and particularly when you admit to not fully knowing her height, weight, and activity level. According to the Dietary Guidelines for Americans 2015-2020, a woman needs to consume between 2,000 to 2,400 calories a day, depending on their activity level. I live in Australia, and when I put my information into the government run Eat for Health 'Daily energy requirements calculator', my result is 2,550 calories to maintain a weight of 75kg (165lbs). I'm 25-years-old, 5'7" (170cm) and live a sedentary lifestyle, but I go for an approx. 6.6km walk almost every day. I know that a lot of these figures are averaged out or estimated, but they're dangerous, because I think a lot of people take them on face value without realising that they need to take numerous factors into account to understand how much energy their particular body needs.
I don't think she meant it like "oh, she's eating too much", but for example if I wanted to do that diet and I only need 1800 calories a day I would either have to really overeat or fall short in a lot of essential minerals.
Will you please make a video on intermittent fasting? I have loved your past videos on popular diets like keto, detox, etc. I know you've covered Kristina's 9 day fast, but what about a 16, 20, or 24 hour fast? And how does it affect women? Is it safe?
1) RIP the fiber in those carrots! I used to turn my juicing fiber into crackers using the dehydrator but I never see Kristina eat crackers or use the leftover fiber. 2) Yeah, raw is great during an Oregon summer but sorry a wet drizzling winter calls for heartier plant based fare.
@@ell-ell_elI yeah, not arguing that. We're in fall. Which mean it will go from freezing to warm to freezing to HORRIBLE STORM!!!!!! Back to freezing. And yes some how it being kinda warm makings the freezing so much worse. More so when it's in the same day
@@rate2875 yeah, I was baking a lot. I like to bake when it's cold. Helps warm up your house and yummy food. My ovens on a lot when it's cold out. I never understood why people think it doesn't get cold here. I mean I know other places get colder. Like I know they go into the negatives. But that doesn't mean we aren't cold. I mean imagine going from like 110 to 20. It's a change
@@theluckypoptart2945 i think most people feel like the weather is more consistent through out the year there where as places like newyork get more extreme winter weather.
I love you unnatural vegan but isn't this like..the 4th or 5th video you've made on Kristina. Just let her live lol I understand how you come out with videos to combat crazy vegan claims but at this point you are kinda trolling.
You mentioned broccoli for choline.. so I'm missing something I guess? Couldn't you just add broccoli to a raw diet for more choline then? Maybe it still wouldn't be 100% RDA, but it's something that could be added easily it seems.
I don't understand why you don't make your points without constantly laughing at other people and pointing out their mistakes in a disrespectful way. You can create awareness whilst still being respectful, really. Work on your self esteem.
I agree with you. She is so disdainful and disrespectful. She’s one of those folks who jealousy eyes you in public because you’re happy..but squashes her jealous thoughts by reminding herself how much better she is than you. 🙄
Yeah, I live in Canada and would hate life if I had to eat cold food in the fall and winter. Its cold from October/November till March/April, depending on when the weather changes
I never understood how she is able to eat "fully raw" without having any stomach issues. Whenever I eat broccoli, kale, etc., I get the worst stomach aches. I think I read somewhere that it's actually better to eat certain vegetables cooked
I can’t stand all the mushroom coffee stuff either...I heard so many people promote that I actually tried both the coffee and hot chocolate one and thought they were pretty nasty...obviously that’s just my opinion but still. I’m sure they seem to enjoy it more than they actually do
Good afternoon, I just wanted to ask what multivitamin you take. I'm looking to buy one to supplement my diet, bit they all seem to be expensive to take them on a daily. Thank you!
From the outside looking into the raw food lifestyle, it can seem disgusting or unsatisfying, but Kristina is an artist, like me, and people like her tend to be more dramatic and extra in order to experience the "high side of life". Usually to escape trauma or for personal validation.
That's part of the reason why it can be considered fun. There are some people, like Kristina, who like challenges and pushing boundaries despite popular opinions. That also explains why she has been such a successful entrepreneur/business woman.
I live in Illinois, it gets bitterly cold, for many many months. Not to mention that exotic fruits or fruits in general can be highly expensive. This diet sounds disgusting🤢
I looked up choline and it says eat plenty of cruciferous vegetables including broccoli cauliflower cabbage kale. Aren't these all in the Cabbage family? I also don't understand if you take a multivitamin doesn't it have choline in it? Maybe some of the powder she's using have choline in it? What does that mushroom stuff supply? Someone posted the ingredients of her balsamic including Himalayan salt but it does look pretty brown for apple cider vinegar?
I live in the same city as Kristina does and it was actually very cold for a while. Right now it's fine but it's going to turn back to being very cold soon.
I don't really see the problem with this day of eating? I'd probably put the soup over some roasted potatoes, personally, because I'm not a fan of having liquids for both breakfast and lunch. However, her meals seem really healthy to me. Sure, maybe she could throw some beans in there, but she's getting fats from the nuts & tahini. I don't see how you can call fresh fruits & vegetables "gross," while standing by overly processed Gardein products. :/ I normally love your content but this video seemed to really miss the mark. Criticizing her for buying an expensive kitchen appliance when so much of her time is spent developing smoothie recipes? It all seems like a reach. :/
Using Cronometer for the first time... will it tell me if I’m getting too much of a micronutrient? It looks like my vitamin a and some b vitamins are through the roof. Google is giving me very different results as to how much vitamin a is actually safe. Thank you!!!
What brands do you recommend for supplementation? I supplement b12 (won't be buying the one I have again) but I supplement vitamin d3 and calcium originally the my kind organic one but i think I need to swap from what I've read about them since. I know I don't need calcium but I generally don't get it on my diet so! If you have recommendations for certain brands that would help massively! So many options I find it hard to choose!
Maybe you should research the weather in the entire state of Texas...then you would see that yes, it does get cold enough to snow in certain parts....and winter does feel cold.
Does she still take Spirulina because I've seen nothing but negative study results and articles about it and how it can actually be harm to B12 status. Also that it is not an actual source of Vitamin B12 but Vitamin B12 analogs, aka pseudo-vitamin B12
I've recently started plugging in what I eat and I'm not getting enough protein (soy allergy) and it's very hard for me to find proteins I like. I eat nuts but it's a lot of fat and I really do not like beans I'm at a loss.
@@ell-ell_elI Its nitpicking how shes always picking on this girl and picking her diet apart as if her diet of gardien products is automatically better because its warm. Like if Kristian isnt sick of looking ill why make a video about her diet every two weeks? Like is it for views? Because her having 3 percent less then the recommended need for a vitamin doesn't seem like a big deal to me. She just dosent like Kristina's diet because she's against more processed foods and she needs the views tbh I hate when she makes videos like this. Always calling somebody's food gross and cold like its rude.
@@Beenhereawhile lmao. She doesn't like kristinas diet, she doesn't have a problem with kristina, but she has a problem with what kristina promotes. If you constantly fail to reach the needs of a certain nutrient ypu will become deficient and its easier to miss certain nutrients when you are eating raw. Yeah, she says some of the food sounds disgusting, thats her opinion based on the ingredients.just like hearing about a cream cheese and jelly bacon bagel sounds disgusting but some people swear its delicious. Shes against Kristina's diet because its hard to do it in a healthy way, its time consuming and a lot of people fail at it and then they're told they failed because they did something wrong.
@@Beenhereawhile if you hate her videos DO NOT WATCH THEM.(actually, keep watching them. Your just supporting her by watching her videos, which im fine with)
I enjoyed this one! I sometimes skip or only watch part of these 'crazy other diet' videos - but this one was both entertaining & informative. Keep doing what you're doing! :-) Thanks.
Funny that someone who is against cold pressed extra virgin olive oil would be ok with a blender. I genuinely dont understand. And someone who is so against processed foods and eat "how you find in nature" would consume these packaged drinks? There must be at least SOME processing? Maybe i am wrong since i dont know these products but wonder
I've watched both you and Kristina over the years now and I gotta say; between the two of you, it really looks like she has her health and lifestyle in way better shape than you do Swayze. Just because Kristina's diet isn't perfect for everybody, or you, that doesn't mean your improvement recommendations are any better, let alone welcome. Whatever Kristina is doing seems to be working for her. She always looks bangin' and doesn't have to just stick to upper-body shots to hide her unhealthy body. Maybe when you become her nutritionist, I'll listen to how you can improve her diet. Now that I think about it, I am pretty sure she doesn't give any fukcs about you; why are giving sooo many fukcs about her? If you take a look at yourself compared to the people you're always criticizing, you are usually the one who looks like they need the improvement. Anyway, keep making videos on how everyone else is wrong, I'm sure without it you would actually have to get some vitamin D to make yourself feel better.
Except Xtina used to look like a stick figure, has skin that's obviously sun damaged and looks like she's in her late 30s/early 40s. Swayze doesn't make videos where her body needs to be the focal point. Her videos are intellectual and she's currently pregnant and already a mother of one. Make better arguments please.
You can be thin and actually be more unhealthy thab someone at a higher BMI. For example if you are underweight enough to have lost your period, nit be fertile if you want children, if you sun tan, don't exercise, dont weight train, don't exercise for endurance and so forth. For example xtina is thinner than most including me but I bet I can out cycle her. Maybe lift more. Run further. Thin is nice but strong is sexy and fuctional
1. Ad Hominem. You're not refuting her arguments or even her statements, you're saying she looks worse which is an opinion. 2. Pregnant with a kid. Motherhood changes people physically and emotionally. Maybe how she looks isn't the highest priority for her as a person. 3. Different kind of channel. She's not pushing for a certain lifestyle or showing how 'active' and 'healthy' she is. She's more often than not making a case and backing it up with data and information about what's done wrong or could be done better, including in her own life, because growth. 4. If you don't like this content, why are you here and more importantly why are you wasting your time commenting? Go watch what you like and live your life. Enjoy your 3lbs of raw kale per day.
Looks are a matter of taste. I personally find Swayze more attractive than Kristina. This is a bit crude, but Swayze is MILF material in my book. For fuck sake there is nothing wrong with a little extra meat on your bones. For most women that's a GOOD thing. I am one of the rare exceptions to that rule. The only reason I can get away with a lower BMI than most women is because I was born male. But even then I have no intention of becoming rail thin. I have struggled enough with my weight that I just want to get down to a healthy weight. If that makes me "overweight"; fine. I just want to no be obese anymore.
So Kristina just posted a bento box video and she uses rolled oats and olives! Nobody tell her those aren't fully raw. And that you can't close the boxes if you over fill them like she does. And that the sliced bananas and avocado are gonna turn brown and gross lol
Just add some lemon juice to the avocados and bananas and they wont brown nearly as quickly.
I am actually about to watch that video after watching this one, I saw the video title and was going to wonder your take on it. Now I know. :)
People have been telling her that cashews aren't raw for AGES and she still didn't get it.. Oh well
First Last yikes! Who hurt you?
It’s is good that she’s a “close enough” raw vegan. It could be even more restrictive.
That much raw kale in a day is literally chewing sadness.
Saltpork305 omg this made me giggle 😆
@Jessie Jay I don't know, but I'd take spinach over kale any day. It actually tastes like food, too
@Jessie Jay kale is higher in calcium and protein while spinach is higher in iron
Yeah, a little bit of kale goes a long way. I could not imagine eating anywhere near that much.
@@Food5Thought oh god, I once bought frozen kale and expected it to taste like spinach because it looked similar in that form and I was sooo disappointed 😂
Someone please make a video called “Swayze Getting Annoyed with Psuedoscience for Ten Minutes Straight”
Honestly, id watch it. I find her demeanor and reactions pretty entertaining and sometimes funny.
I'm on it...
Wait, I have zero editing skills. Sorry.
Audrey Scanlon it’s ok! I don’t either. Luckily she has 175k subscribers so hopefully someone else can do it for us 🤣
I bet you can find way more than 10 minutes of footage
More like 10 hours
*”Talk you out of such a crime”* 😳
Yeah when Kristina's video came out about that that part made me angry. I was suicidal for twenty years and even though I am not anymore, I did get onto her about not really knowing what it really is like to be suicidal and she asked me "but did you watch the video?" And I did. Twice.
I literally cackled at the question marks Swayze added. Like Kristina is such a mess that some shit she says doesn't even warrant a response.
I attempted suicide and survived. (I'm okay now ❤️😌)
So being a person with severe depression that was pretty damn offensive...
@@humko3924 I don't think she meant it like an accusation. I never watched her videos, but she seems like a sweet person. I got it more like she thinks it's a crime because your life is precious, you are precious, and it's a "crime" to take a life? That's how I understood it. It certainly did not come across as an accusation - to me.
@@humko3924 And I want to say I am so happy you survived and feeling better. Take care and be kind to yourself. You're worth it.
I can't believe she's 29 she looks like she's a healthy 42 but looking 42 at 29 isn't good
@joy yell she's raw vegan, big difference...
I believe Kristina is anti-sunscreen. She does spend a lot of time in the sun which can lead to premature aging.
Shes 29??? I honestly thought she was in her 40s and looking pretty good for 40
Lack of fat
She is 31 btw
Sooo tired of seeing this mushroom juice on every single vegan channel... I know they've gotta make money and sponsorships are the primary money maker for TH-camrs, but this particular brand is so overdone. It's especially annoying with all of the pseudoscience they spout about the product - I honestly can't understand how this doesn't count as false advertising!
Edited to add: how can hyper-processed industrially-produced powdered sterilised mushroom be considered "raw"? Same question with the highly processed protein powders the raw vegans all chug on a daily basis. Just eat some beans!
I agree. I have disliked some videos with people pushing that mushroom stuff.
It’s a scam. There are all these things you can buy now in the supermarket for less than $5 a pound that used to be sold as miracle health foods for over $5 an ounce. It’s the same with these.
I tried a sample packet because they were on sale for a buck. It tasted like garbage >: (.
It's on non vegan channels too.
Even reading the words "Winter smoothie" is baffling to Scottish people. I'm cold just looking at it.
I’ll never understand why people willingly decide to eat a raw diet.
Vegan Lifter it almost seems like some people have some sort of eating disorder 😩
Vegan Lifter you’ll never understand until you try it yourself, it’s pretty cool. I’ve tried it before just to see how I felt and I liked it. However I also feel great eating whole Foods
Lol
n Dez Why would I take a step back in evolution to eating only raw foods? Makes no sense.
n Dez I tried it for 4 days and fucking hated it. I was freezing (ND gets down to -20*F) and couldn’t get enough food in me to save my life even though the volume I was eating made me look 10x worse that I did. Eating non-whole foods, 100+g of protein a day of tasty tasty mock meats and bread vegan diet is what works for me 👍🏼 (BTW I’ve lost 25lbs eating this way)
megan nice!!! So happy for you! I get that it can be hard, for me it was hard too but I’m a little extra and very hard on myself when it comes to discipline so I wanted to try it lol. I def eat lots of junk food lol
According to the app and recipe for the salad, these are the ingredients in the "balsamic dressing":
*2 tbsp raw apple cider vinegar
* 2 tbsp lemon juice
* 3 tbsp raw coconut nectar
* 1 pinch pink himalayan salt
Why doesn't she have balsamic vinegar in her _balsamic_ dressing?
Also, wtf is "raw" apple cider vinegar? how do you have "raw" protein powder? like wtf
i gotta be super honest. i was like raw kristina, and honestly thank goodness i'm not longer a strictly raw vegan. for only a year, i was absolutely obsessed with my "health" and thought that my body was full of mucus and acid that i had to get rid of through dry fasting, water fasting, lemon juice fasting, grape juice fasting, and only eating primarily raw fruit. i was super into dr robert morse (nice man, but man i was really mislead), and bought a ton of herbs thinking that by consuming this, i will "clear up the mucus in my body, move my lymphatic system, clear up the sulfur in me". i know it sounds crazy but when you get in it, you just get suuuuuper deep in it. that being said, i also thought that the only way to stay thin was by only eating raw food...however it is NOT satisfying at ALL. i would eat TONS of salad and fruit at the end of the night and at the end of my raw vegan state, i was binging a ton on "raw chocolate" and coconut cream.
the problem with me was i just really warped my thoughts around food. food was no longer just food. it was good or bad. i convinced myself eating steamed broccoli was detrimental to my health. or mixing fruit and veggies was highly acidic for my body and therefore bad. it was nuts. i was nuts. lol.
i'm happy to say i'm just a normal person now but man...watching people like kristina or even ellen at one point makes me sad because i know what they're going through. food should just be food. the moment we start compartmentalizing it is when we develop this unhealthy relationship with food which could lead to other things.
wow sorry for the long spiel.
I did the same thing. I just try to have greens, a little fruit, and hit my protein intake. I also take vitamins.. And eat cooked. Its just better
eat your factory farmed chicken if you want to be ´normal`.
orangej I was the same, juice fasts, at home colonics, weird “superfoods” that cost me £££. I feel so much more balanced now I eat soy, beans, fats, oils, salt etc.
@@catkin-z8g so a normal diet means eating chicken? And you assume we are eating that? Uhm okay. Dont care why you care or take the time to right that. I guess being vegan isn't enough for some pple who just need an excuse to be a judgmental jerk
@@DoctorMommy24 ofcourse it does. most people eat chicken and normal means conforming to a standard; usual, typical, or expected. plant based is abnormal whether you follow the `nutrition facts` diet or the fully raw one. atleast the fully raw one could be considered normal in comparison with other species of animal where as the `nutrition facts` diet conforms with the carnist diet replacing the steak with a `vegan steak`. it is vegan aswell whereas the `nutrition facts` diet contains synthetic chemicals and herbicides etc. that do not conform to the definiton of veganism as wholesome foods. if we want to encourage normality then eating chicken is the obvious outcome and we have to discourage atypical diets like `nutrition facts` as being eating disorders indicative of mental illness. there must be an imbalance in your brain chemistry talking about micrwaved broccoli and cooking tomatoes with tofu burgers and taking vitamin d supplements etc. its orthorexia obsessing over `nutrition facts` counting calories and checking labels for animal products. fully raw is just the thin edge of the wedge they want you to stick to your `nutrition facts` diet and go carnist. they obviously realise the raw foodies are not going to take much notice but you lot will be worried about the stigma of being associated with crazy raw foodists and gulp down your lab meat and roast it on hot coals and then you definitely wont be vegan by any stretch of the imagination. like really do you even believe this bs about " TONS of salad and fruit at the end of the night and i was binging a ton on "raw chocolate" and coconut cream." really like a tonne of coconut cream and still starving hey. sounds really bad it must mean cooking the chocolate and coconut would really help to make it fill you up more. all those people who survived on coconuts must have been pullying the hair out trying to make a fire to cook their coconuts. maybe its even true but that would only suggest the cooking really does cause some serious issues.
Have some hot soup Kristina, for the love of God!
Ikr? It's winter, FFS!
IKR...Damn, no hot soup? Can she take a hot shower? Jeez...
@@Candiedcurlies35 looool! I honestly thought for a second about it - can she drink tea? Is boiling hot water forbidden, too? It all seems so insane, i dont know where rawfoodists draw their imaginery line
Kristina has quite a few soup recipes including warm ones.
@@catkin-z8g HOT soup, not slightly warm.
Raw kale tastes like dirt. My rabbits won’t even eat it and that’s saying something, and they eat their own shit.
Mary Grace Seagraves my bearded dragon eats it but he eats bugs. So everything tastes good to him I guess
Best comment ever ahahahah
My high speed blender still couldn't puree the stalks properly after I'd boiled the kale for over an hour in soup...Does being raw vegan give you superhuman teeth?!
I fucking love cooked kale but eating it raw wouldn’t ever cross my mind.
My favourite way to cook it is by frying some onions, once they’re browned chuck the cut-up kale in there, add some water and put the lid on. Once the kale is soft dilute some mustard in water, add that as well as salt pepper and marjoram. I also like to add diced smoked tofu. The combination of kale, mustard and marjoram is perfect 👌🏻
KALE IS GREAT, YOU JUST NEED TO SOFTEN IT FOR SALADS AND IT'S GREAT IN SOUPS, IT'S TYPICALLY TO ROUGH AND HARD RAW
Will enjoy coffee until the day I die.
Coffee fueled me this entire semester and will continue to throughout my entire PhD program.
Couldn't imagine life without it.

SOOOO sick of hearing about four sigmatic
@Jo Pearson Yeah, when I first started hearing about them on Rich Roll interviews, I was thinking it was a cool idea. Now every TH-camr is sponsored by them, hahaha
and like now I'm all "NO THANKS FOUR SIGMATIC... pleas go away FOUR SIGMATICCCC ughhh" @@Food5Thought
Kristina just seems way to fixated on being able to say she's "fully raw" like it is something to be proud of, a badge of honor if you will.
Yeah, that's a problem, I hope she doesn't choose to keep that over her health :(
Yeah changing her brand would be very hard.
Swayze yooo this hairstyle looks so good on you! When you're deciding to cut your hair next time and you don't know what style to get or anything, get this! Best hairstyle of yours that I've ever seen.
I would be interested to see a video on sodium / salt - analyzing research, what the vegan community gets wrong, etc.
I agree! Would make for a great video. :)
Second that! Even the vegan society recommends against relying on iodised salt for iodine :(
Salt all day son
Long as you got your potassium up you are good. And get the good quality salt
Agree. I was very intrigued by your remark about sodium in the video. Could you explain what you meant? Thanks.
+
I really hate the comment section of your video with a passion. I respect that you keep making videos even with such a frustrating comment section.
@what ever your choosing to watch the video. Your allowing her to make money from you watching her video, even though you hate her content. You are literally supporting her by watching her content and commenting.
@what ever if this is her hobby then why would she need another one. Lol?
OH MY GOD, THANK YOU FOR POINTING OUT THE RIDICULOUSNESS OF THAT BLENDER!!
Yes that also enlighten me (but I never buy that stuff just high speed blender is already perfect)
ITS £600!!!!!
Yeah, there's a lot of silly stuff we see, I really like this lady pointing out some these ridiculous choices
Oh man, it's not even freezing where I live yet and I can't put up with smoothies and cold food at all right now 😂
Christina right? Never having hot food sounds like the most depressing thing ever.
Yeah as a New England resident I could eat cold during summer but during the winter I want warm food cause snow is rough
Same here. Most raw food is cooling & may increase moisture in the body (which is a cause of disease in Ayurveda & TCM). Smoothies don't work for me.
Yeah, Georgia winters say no raw diet for me 🤣
I wonder what we did to retain nutrients from our fruits and veggies prior to ridiculously overpriced blenders.
@melissa cabrera I get that, but FRK has been using (adverising) this specific blender as it helps "retain more nutrients." It's a bullshit claim. Also, yes smoothies can be a great way to get more fruits/veggies in, and they can also be a great way to get excess calories in as well. If you don't like bananas, then you don't need to eat them.
I think we hadn't racked up enough generational loss of physiological integrity to require so much nutrition
“Talk you out of such a crime”
*I DIED*
Vinaigrette is a specific thing that has specific essential components... if it doesn't have oil it's not vinaigrette.
Eh, I tend not to buy into that sort of thing. Like UV's recent video RE: vegan carbonara, people tell me some dish "isn't" that dish without meat, cheese, etc. So she's probably just using that word because it resembles a vinaigrette.
Not advocating for a raw diet or anything. I eat cooked foods for like every meal. And oil very regularly.
@@kateliness2 I get what you're saying but vinaigrette is mostly oil. So there's no point calling it that if it's not gonna be _anything_ like it. There's still such a word as "dressing" right ?😂
@@dedoubecool That's true. Though balsamic vinaigrette sounds better than balsamic dressing haha.
The word "vinaigrette" is a diminutive of vinaigre(vin=wine, aigre=sour), which means vinegar in French. The most important ingredient is the vinegar. While a vinaigrette will *typically* have oil and seasonings, it can be made without oil I guess, although I wouldn't find that very satisfying taste-wise.
@@carolynhance5588 despite the name, the ratio or oil to vinegar is traditionally 3 to 1. Therefore oil is the main component.
I remember Kristina saying that she does not drink teas and what not so I feel like that sigmantic stuff is such a sell out
You should do a taste test of four sigmatic. I just want to hear an honest review of how horrible it tastes. There’s no way it’s actually good.
Also, I live in Texas. That stuff may fly in the fall when it’s warm but, it’s cold and drizzly here in Jan-feb. No thanks, I need all the warm things.
And. Its so expensive
It actually tastes good. Not sure if its "magical" but the turmeric tea i bought was enjoyable
The absolute volume of some of these raw vegan diets would kill me... it’s just too damn much!! I can’t get over the 3 heads of kale. 😵
Been listening to loads of podcasts lately, an unnatural vegan podcast would be amazing :)
You should react to her newest video! She made bento boxes and one had oatmeal in it and another had olives, both of which I didn't think was included in a raw vegan diet.
Serena Brann why aren’t olives raw??
I think the issue with olives is that they are packed in brine and salty which some raw vegans take issue with. I've heard some say they can't be considered raw because of that. I've watched many of Kristina's recipe/what I ate in a day videos and I've never seen her eat olives. I'm no expert on what is and isn't allowed on a raw vegan diet though.
Serena Brann she mentioned recently that she started incorporating salt into her diet, so maybe that’s why she’s eating olives...?
Is she eating raw or over night style oats?
Can you explain why rolled oats aren’t vegan? I’m curious.
This seems a bit nit picky to me. Does everyone hit their RDA on everything every single day always? Seems a bit unreasonable to pick her apart for being 3% low on a single amino acid.
If your consistently not meeting your nutritional needs then your eventually going to be deficient. And there was more than one thing wrong with this diet. Plus She can only measure the nutrients based on what's in the videos that kristina makes, so if Kristina's eating a perfectly balanced diet everyday no one would know unless she made a video about it.
@@ell-ell_elI yes, but the question is nit picking, do you think that everyone but Kristina have perfect diets? that Unnatural vegan herself has a perfect diet? She does look sick in camera...
this is not an attack towards you a.i.c, you are right in what you say, it's just that you responded to the first comment that commented on Unnatural Vegan's nazi attitude.
But I mean... come on! She got to the point to even criticize Kristina's app for not being available for android!! alluding that that was another thing that Kristina is doing wrong because people that use apple products are bad (because apple has a bad customer service ?!?!?! ).
Maybe Unnatural vegan is 100% healthy and perfect in every aspect while Kristina is the worst thing that ever walked on earth... but my god, for someone so healthy and illuminated Unnatural has quite a petty and intolerant attitude towards everyone else.
@@angelap.8160 You seem to be the one nitpicking. Her saying that kristinas app is only supported on apple isn't against kristina, she point out that she doesn't like apple. She cant criticize that app because she hasn't used it, because she cant get the app because its only supported on apple device which she doesn't own.
@@angelap.8160 "Nazzi attitude" I dont understand what you mean by that. She made a video about a TH-camr who does a raw diet properly and meets pretty much all of her nutritional needs.
@@angelap.8160 Also, a long time ago UV predicted that kristina would be moving away from her extreme diet and i think this is just keeping tabs on kristina. UV dislikes some of kristinas beliefs like it being unnecessary to supplement for b12 but she likes her as a person, shes practically said as much in other videos.
I need to stop reading the comment section on these videos. If I see another comment from a bored teenager who thinks he knows a lot about nutrition because he saw a video from a random guy who eats raw animal corpses I’m gonna lost faith in humanity 😂
ewwww the breakfast juice sounds HORRIBLE. I mean, healthy af but no no no that sounds like the opposite of what I want when I wake up.
I admire your work so so much, and I would love to know where do you get your knowledge from? Like how did you got from crazy raw vegan to informed, unnatural vegan?
mikandra kate she always refers to research primary, review, metareview etc.
When you want to find something out search google and look for the most credible sources.
The more informed you become the deeper you can get into the research it all comes from.

The thing about sodium is what a lot of people seem to get wrong, and is a very big reason why it perplexed me to see freelee and durianrider claim that you get enough salt from fruits and veggies. I also cycle. I have gone on 1-2 hour rides in the hot sun, sometimes more, and when I didn't increase sodium intake, it would do a number on me. In fact, one time I went on a ride without increasing my sodium intake enough, and I had become physically ill from it. I was in the hospital with what I thought was food poisoning, turns out my blood pressure was in the toilet. This is why it bugs me that people like freelee were telling people no, don't eat salt, salt's bad for you! Yeah, excess salt is bad for you, that's not good advice for highly active people who work out in the hot sun. SOdium is a problem when you are sedentary and live off of highly processed meals and fast food.
Okay, I live in the deep south, a small town outside of New Orleans, and still the thought of eating cold soup in the winter time makes me so uncomfortable
LMFAO, swayze I appreciate your ability to ignore these trolls, I have been scrolling through the comments and they are so extra😂😂 stay strong and keep calling out the BS
Lol, i agree
Jesus! And all of them are health and biology experts too!! 🤦🏻♀️😂😂
When she started using Sunwarrior Protein Powder and claiming to be “fully raw” I was like 🤔🤔🤔
There had been a lot of things about her and her beliefs that started turning me off but the cherry on the top was the debacle that was the BMW “giveaway.”
Prepare for incoming "oh my gosh leave Kristina alone, she's so positive and you're just jealous and negative blah blah and you're OBSSESED with her" comments.
The Choline issue is not well nailed down. When setting the RDA, it was determined 550mg/day was sufficient but 50 mg/day was not sufficient so they set the RDA at 550. What about 200mg/day? It may well be enough but we don't know for sure. Keep an eye on your liver function. Choline deficiency will show up there pretty fast.
In general, I don't necessarily take the official RDA's to be the end all be all of what we really need.
I'm pretty sure that raw vegan diets are perfect for people who are prone to binge eating because they get to binge and not gain weight.
Of your binge eating a bunch of fruit, then your going to gain weight due to all of the sugar. It depends on what your eating. Thats also how they make some of these diets seem appealing "eat however much you want and never gain weight"
Binge eating isn't just physically unhealthy, it's mentally unhealthy. Eating tons of food and feeling like you have no control is not a good thing even if you don't gain weight.
I think a raw diet actually promotes those behaviors instead of fixing them. This creates an unhealthy relationship with food.
@@ell-ell_elI carbs is all sugar regardless if it is starch or fructose.
No, it's really not helpful. Coming from someone with BED, it's probably one of the worst things you can do.
Well, I realise that.
I guess I frased it wrong, it's just that I noticed the correlation between raw foodists and binge eaters.
Its a "perfect way" to "take care of the problem" without actually solving the mental issue.
The tone of your voice as well as the facts proven by studies that take the shape of the words coming out of your mouth have a really relaxing impact on my body. I watch you to calm down and steady my nerves after listing to all of those quacks and home-grown TH-cam nutritionists and doctors.
Kale is not food! It is vegetable gum that gives you gas!!
Wait, I thought kale was good? Seems like depending on who you ask every single food on this earth is either bad or will kill you.
@@leggomyweavo sure it is "good for you" but that does not make it good to eat though.
Simyon Lashon I think he’s more talking about how kale makes some people feel, not necessarily the health effects of it :)
gas is part of life... grow up and deal with it. even if you don't eat anything you'll have gas...
i LOVEE the texture of kale personally! yum
Is there a reason you would eat three brazil nuts rather than just one? I eat one a day and was curious if there is a reason to eat more.
Swayze, is there any way you could make a video on DHA/EPA omega 3 precursors? I'm really worried about the amount of omega 3 that I'm getting on a vegan diet.
She has a video on EPA and DHA if I remember right. Those are available in supplement form.
@Jo Pearson Interesting. How much in the way of omegas were you getting? Did you consume flax?
@melissa cabrera Flax and Canola are high in Omega 3s. So there is no need for animal products to obtain the Omegas. How exactly are the supplements placebos? Do they not contain Omegas? Or is that your body can't make use of the Omegas? Can you point me to some good sold info on why Omega/DHA supplements are bad?
@melissa cabrera I use flax seed meal. For me I don't see an issue with the conversion. If I had an omega issue I would just consume more flax or canola. Seems simple enough.
@melissa cabrera Which supplements were the studies looking at? Were they comparing vegan supplements to fish? Major dietetic associations all agree that vegan diets can be healthy if done right. So I am certainly not convinced I need fish in my diet. I wouldn't be eating fish regardless as I don't like the taste.
I don't think you should be commenting on how many calories Kristina eats, especially when you're saying that almost 2,200 calories is on the high end for a woman, and particularly when you admit to not fully knowing her height, weight, and activity level.
According to the Dietary Guidelines for Americans 2015-2020, a woman needs to consume between 2,000 to 2,400 calories a day, depending on their activity level. I live in Australia, and when I put my information into the government run Eat for Health 'Daily energy requirements calculator', my result is 2,550 calories to maintain a weight of 75kg (165lbs). I'm 25-years-old, 5'7" (170cm) and live a sedentary lifestyle, but I go for an approx. 6.6km walk almost every day.
I know that a lot of these figures are averaged out or estimated, but they're dangerous, because I think a lot of people take them on face value without realising that they need to take numerous factors into account to understand how much energy their particular body needs.
I don't think she meant it like "oh, she's eating too much", but for example if I wanted to do that diet and I only need 1800 calories a day I would either have to really overeat or fall short in a lot of essential minerals.
"One cup is fine, but two to three is dangerous" and here I am, drinking my fifth cup of coffee lol
I wonder how many videos you have on Kristina.
Too many. Can't come up with a video on your own?
I like how your criticism is becoming constructive, offering a doable solution. That makes more people open to listen..
Maybe I missed it, but what website/app are you using to plug all the food in? I really like how simple the display is.
Cronometer
Will you please make a video on intermittent fasting? I have loved your past videos on popular diets like keto, detox, etc. I know you've covered Kristina's 9 day fast, but what about a 16, 20, or 24 hour fast? And how does it affect women? Is it safe?
What's the program/app/website you use for tracking how much vitamins and minerals you're eating
Three heads of kale? That's probably costs the equivalent of all my fresh veggies for the week
1) RIP the fiber in those carrots! I used to turn my juicing fiber into crackers using the dehydrator but I never see Kristina eat crackers or use the leftover fiber. 2) Yeah, raw is great during an Oregon summer but sorry a wet drizzling winter calls for heartier plant based fare.
It gets cold in Texas. it was 25 f a couple days ago. It's 60 now but it will be below freezing again in two days.
That makes it even worse. I wouldnt be able to survive without hotfood😂
Remember last year when it got down to 18 f in Texas ?! Really makes you want some cold soup
@@ell-ell_elI yeah, not arguing that.
We're in fall.
Which mean it will go from freezing to warm to freezing to HORRIBLE STORM!!!!!!

I mean I know other places get colder. Like I know they go into the negatives.
But that doesn't mean we aren't cold.

It's a change
@@theluckypoptart2945 i think most people feel like the weather is more consistent through out the year there where as places like newyork get more extreme winter weather.

melissa cabrera thanks!
I love you unnatural vegan but isn't this like..the 4th or 5th video you've made on Kristina. Just let her live lol I understand how you come out with videos to combat crazy vegan claims but at this point you are kinda trolling.
Son, why are you ruining this.
You mentioned broccoli for choline.. so I'm missing something I guess? Couldn't you just add broccoli to a raw diet for more choline then? Maybe it still wouldn't be 100% RDA, but it's something that could be added easily it seems.
I don't understand why you don't make your points without constantly laughing at other people and pointing out their mistakes in a disrespectful way.
You can create awareness whilst still being respectful, really.
Work on your self esteem.
Snowflake
I agree with you. She is so disdainful and disrespectful. She’s one of those folks who jealousy eyes you in public because you’re happy..but squashes her jealous thoughts by reminding herself how much better she is than you. 🙄
I agree
That’s her personality.
Madison Falco an uncouth personality
What’s the website you always use for nutrient breakdowns?
I don't know where you live, but I'm in the Seattle area and these foods would not warm me up in the slightest.
Yeah, I live in Canada and would hate life if I had to eat cold food in the fall and winter. Its cold from October/November till March/April, depending on when the weather changes
I never understood how she is able to eat "fully raw" without having any stomach issues. Whenever I eat broccoli, kale, etc., I get the worst stomach aches. I think I read somewhere that it's actually better to eat certain vegetables cooked
I can’t stand all the mushroom coffee stuff either...I heard so many people promote that I actually tried both the coffee and hot chocolate one and thought they were pretty nasty...obviously that’s just my opinion but still. I’m sure they seem to enjoy it more than they actually do
Good afternoon, I just wanted to ask what multivitamin you take. I'm looking to buy one to supplement my diet, bit they all seem to be expensive to take them on a daily. Thank you!
From the outside looking into the raw food lifestyle, it can seem disgusting or unsatisfying, but Kristina is an artist, like me, and people like her tend to be more dramatic and extra in order to experience the "high side of life". Usually to escape trauma or for personal validation.
It just seems unnecessarily restrictive, and hard to stick with.
That's part of the reason why it can be considered fun. There are some people, like Kristina, who like challenges and pushing boundaries despite popular opinions. That also explains why she has been such a successful entrepreneur/business woman.
I would like to know which Choline supplement are you using? Somehow I am missing that information :) I love Deva Multi you are recommending 😀
I have a newborn, I respectfully disagree with anyone who says coffee doesn’t give you energy 😜
I live in Illinois, it gets bitterly cold, for many many months. Not to mention that exotic fruits or fruits in general can be highly expensive. This diet sounds disgusting🤢
Maybe if you posted the kale seiten recipe....then....
Eating raw kale literally tore my insides apart. It made me bleed from places I shouldn’t have.
According to the internet Kristina is 31 and Unnatural Vegan is 30, they both look like total Hell for their age.
What do you use to calculate the nutrients? I'd like to get that for myself.
She actually eats seaweeds now. She has a kelp noodle recipe out
I looked up choline and it says eat plenty of cruciferous vegetables including broccoli cauliflower cabbage kale. Aren't these all in the Cabbage family? I also don't understand if you take a multivitamin doesn't it have choline in it? Maybe some of the powder she's using have choline in it? What does that mushroom stuff supply? Someone posted the ingredients of her balsamic including Himalayan salt but it does look pretty brown for apple cider vinegar?
So you just told us how gross you think her diet is and that's it.....sis find a better video idea.
You mention taking a multi a lot and I agree with you. Any specific recommendations?
Thank you for being a voice of reason in this community! Also your eye make up is pretty!
what is this calculator that you use to count how much percent of minerals is in her meals?
Cronometer
TWO WORDS FOR KRISTINA: SHE CRAZY
What do you recommend to eat health wise
I live in the same city as Kristina does and it was actually very cold for a while. Right now it's fine but it's going to turn back to being very cold soon.
Then Not being able to eat hot food would suck a lot more.
Cold is relative
What app is she using to check her daily intake?
I don't really see the problem with this day of eating? I'd probably put the soup over some roasted potatoes, personally, because I'm not a fan of having liquids for both breakfast and lunch. However, her meals seem really healthy to me. Sure, maybe she could throw some beans in there, but she's getting fats from the nuts & tahini. I don't see how you can call fresh fruits & vegetables "gross," while standing by overly processed Gardein products. :/ I normally love your content but this video seemed to really miss the mark. Criticizing her for buying an expensive kitchen appliance when so much of her time is spent developing smoothie recipes? It all seems like a reach. :/
Using Cronometer for the first time... will it tell me if I’m getting too much of a micronutrient? It looks like my vitamin a and some b vitamins are through the roof. Google is giving me very different results as to how much vitamin a is actually safe.
Thank you!!!
I just like the flavor of Chaga tea, I don't think it does much but it's like a nice, earthy black tea and it's nice in the winter.
What brands do you recommend for supplementation? I supplement b12 (won't be buying the one I have again) but I supplement vitamin d3 and calcium originally the my kind organic one but i think I need to swap from what I've read about them since. I know I don't need calcium but I generally don't get it on my diet so! If you have recommendations for certain brands that would help massively! So many options I find it hard to choose!
I have the exact same reaction to apple products; APPLE CAN GO DIE!!
What's your opinion of Frank Tufano and his opinion on grains, especially oats?
She's 3 years older than Frank but could pass for his mother.
Maybe you should research the weather in the entire state of Texas...then you would see that yes, it does get cold enough to snow in certain parts....and winter does feel cold.
Does she still take Spirulina because I've seen nothing but negative study results and articles about it and how it can actually be harm to B12 status. Also that it is not an actual source of Vitamin B12 but Vitamin B12 analogs, aka pseudo-vitamin B12

What calculator do you (does she) use for knowing how many minerals and all you (she) needs?
Cronometer
0:24 omg Im dying 😂😂
I've recently started plugging in what I eat and I'm not getting enough protein (soy allergy) and it's very hard for me to find proteins I like. I eat nuts but it's a lot of fat and I really do not like beans I'm at a loss.
Cabrera thank you I'll try it
This is kinda nitpicking
That shes saying her diet got better, or that theres a better way to do it?
@@ell-ell_elI Its nitpicking how shes always picking on this girl and picking her diet apart as if her diet of gardien products is automatically better because its warm. Like if Kristian isnt sick of looking ill why make a video about her diet every two weeks? Like is it for views? Because her having 3 percent less then the recommended need for a vitamin doesn't seem like a big deal to me. She just dosent like Kristina's diet because she's against more processed foods and she needs the views tbh I hate when she makes videos like this. Always calling somebody's food gross and cold like its rude.
@@Beenhereawhile lmao. She doesn't like kristinas diet, she doesn't have a problem with kristina, but she has a problem with what kristina promotes. If you constantly fail to reach the needs of a certain nutrient ypu will become deficient and its easier to miss certain nutrients when you are eating raw. Yeah, she says some of the food sounds disgusting, thats her opinion based on the ingredients.just like hearing about a cream cheese and jelly bacon bagel sounds disgusting but some people swear its delicious. Shes against Kristina's diet because its hard to do it in a healthy way, its time consuming and a lot of people fail at it and then they're told they failed because they did something wrong.
@@Beenhereawhile if you hate her videos DO NOT WATCH THEM.(actually, keep watching them. Your just supporting her by watching her videos, which im fine with)
@@Beenhereawhile THE FOOD Literally IS COLD BECAUSE YOU CAN NOT COOK IT. Its a raw diet so of course the foods going to be cold.
I enjoyed this one! I sometimes skip or only watch part of these 'crazy other diet' videos - but this one was both entertaining & informative. Keep doing what you're doing! :-) Thanks.
I live in central NY and I absolutely cannot fathom eating a smoothie when its < 32 degrees out D:
Curious if you think tannyraw does the raw thing correctly or not?
Funny that someone who is against cold pressed extra virgin olive oil would be ok with a blender. I genuinely dont understand. And someone who is so against processed foods and eat "how you find in nature" would consume these packaged drinks? There must be at least SOME processing? Maybe i am wrong since i dont know these products but wonder
Okay, I'm confused; what's wrong with broccoli on a raw diet?
I've watched both you and Kristina over the years now and I gotta say; between the two of you, it really looks like she has her health and lifestyle in way better shape than you do Swayze. Just because Kristina's diet isn't perfect for everybody, or you, that doesn't mean your improvement recommendations are any better, let alone welcome.
Whatever Kristina is doing seems to be working for her. She always looks bangin' and doesn't have to just stick to upper-body shots to hide her unhealthy body. Maybe when you become her nutritionist, I'll listen to how you can improve her diet.
Now that I think about it, I am pretty sure she doesn't give any fukcs about you; why are giving sooo many fukcs about her? If you take a look at yourself compared to the people you're always criticizing, you are usually the one who looks like they need the improvement.
Anyway, keep making videos on how everyone else is wrong, I'm sure without it you would actually have to get some vitamin D to make yourself feel better.
Except Xtina used to look like a stick figure, has skin that's obviously sun damaged and looks like she's in her late 30s/early 40s. Swayze doesn't make videos where her body needs to be the focal point. Her videos are intellectual and she's currently pregnant and already a mother of one. Make better arguments please.
You can be thin and actually be more unhealthy thab someone at a higher BMI. For example if you are underweight enough to have lost your period, nit be fertile if you want children, if you sun tan, don't exercise, dont weight train, don't exercise for endurance and so forth. For example xtina is thinner than most including me but I bet I can out cycle her. Maybe lift more. Run further. Thin is nice but strong is sexy and fuctional
Zach Zephyr Looks are subjective, One man's 'bangin' is another man's sun damaged walnut. Useless argument.
1. Ad Hominem. You're not refuting her arguments or even her statements, you're saying she looks worse which is an opinion.
2. Pregnant with a kid. Motherhood changes people physically and emotionally. Maybe how she looks isn't the highest priority for her as a person.
3. Different kind of channel. She's not pushing for a certain lifestyle or showing how 'active' and 'healthy' she is. She's more often than not making a case and backing it up with data and information about what's done wrong or could be done better, including in her own life, because growth.
4. If you don't like this content, why are you here and more importantly why are you wasting your time commenting? Go watch what you like and live your life. Enjoy your 3lbs of raw kale per day.
Looks are a matter of taste. I personally find Swayze more attractive than Kristina. This is a bit crude, but Swayze is MILF material in my book. For fuck sake there is nothing wrong with a little extra meat on your bones. For most women that's a GOOD thing. I am one of the rare exceptions to that rule. The only reason I can get away with a lower BMI than most women is because I was born male. But even then I have no intention of becoming rail thin. I have struggled enough with my weight that I just want to get down to a healthy weight. If that makes me "overweight"; fine. I just want to no be obese anymore.
What app do you use?
