I’d have less energy, I’d be more tired, I’d need more sleep, I’d be physically weaker, my blood would be acidic instead of alkaline, my brain wouldn’t work as well, I couldn’t concentrate as deeply, I have to deal with problems I couldn’t solve as easily, I’d experience more confusion, I’d make more bad decisions, I’d age faster, I’d get sick more often, I’d achieve fewer goals, I’d generate less value, my income would suffer, I’d be a worse writer, I’d be more distracted, life would be harder, I’d experience more negative emotions and fewer positive ones, I’d be more stressed, I’d be more likely to succumb to addictions like caffeine, I wouldn’t help as many people, my contribution would suffer, I’d be a bad example for others, etc.

It sounds like the gates of Hell would open and the four horsemen would come riding out if you went back to your old diet. I know that comparison is a little extreme, but couldn't the same be said of that impressive list of raw-food-attributed life benefits?

The normal range of blood pH is 7.35-7.45, which is an alkaline solution. This range is carefully maintained by your body to ensure it's able to survive...anything outside this range and bad things start to happen. When you say that going back to your old diet will turn your blood acidic...well...it makes so sense. Blood is always alkaline. Do you regularly test your blood pH? I hate to nitpick, but this jumped out at me as I read your article because I do not like to attribute effects to causes without proper logic and analysis.
I could probably attriubte that list of positive benefits to any number of life changes. Could it be possible that eating a raw diet is what you need to do in order to attain this kind of clarity, not from the physical nutrients, etc, but the focus and motivation one gets from accomplishing one's goals and purpose?
