Natural Hygeine

Has anyone visited, read or heard about Natural Hygeine and the "rumor" that they do not recommend the vegan lifestyle? Supposedly the say vegan and fruitarian diets are "ideal" but at the same time site that there are no vegan or fruitarian centenarians (people who live over 100+) They criticize many current raw food "gurus" (ie David Wolfe) as being misleading and say that some animal protein is necessary. I am curious what other information people may have to add, support or dispute this.

Thanks a bunch!

I have read anything saying that animal protein is necessary that is not sponsored at some level by the meat or dairy industry. I'd check your sources.

I've been a vegetarian/vegan for 35 years....I agree with phillyblu...my suggestion is to educate yourself as to what nutrients our bodies need to function properly and make sure that you eat in a healthy way...it's an ongoing process...I'm still continually learning and getting better and better at it!..there's many educational websites.....

I have actually been a vegan for about 5 years, so I have done quite a bit of extensive research and "resource checking" My intention for posting this question was to see what others had read about Natural Hygeine simply as a curiosity, not because of a lack of personal knowledge. So thanks anyway, but I am going to go a different avenue to answer my curiosity.

KB,

Didn't mean to put you off but you did say it was a "rumor" To me, that implied that it was just something you heard somewhere rather than something you read about or researched. I would be curious to know the results of your findings as well.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
