Help with a research paper on 80/10/10'ers? :)

Hi everyone, I'm doing a sociological research paper on how society considers 80-10-10'ers (high carb, low fat raw vegans) to be "outsiders" due to their dietary preferences. I'm discussing how the meat, dairy, egg, and processed food industries use their money to manipulate government decisions, policies, and public opinion, as well as scientific research. My professor has asked me to do a survey of the family and friends of HCLFRV as a part of this, to gauge how people react to the idea of…See More

We suggest you pick a name other than your own if you want to maintain anonymity.
I've been vegetarian since I was 11, which is about the same time that I became fascinated by raw foods (albeit high fat). Around the time I started high school, I found 30BAD, very quickly bought the book and became convinced! Finally LFRV in 2012. No matter how many slip ups I have along the way, I believe that this is the best diet and lifestyle there is.

I bike almost everywhere and do moderate exercise a few days a week, mainly lifting weights and training for my first 10k!

Hey Elissa, thanks for the friend request. Good to see another Norcal person on here. There's getting to be quite a handful! Do you know Megan Ugarte? (meganthevegan) She started the Sac meetup group, she's a freaking awesome person and I highly recommend connecting with her.
