FullyRaw – Meet Raw Vegan Pioneer Kristina Carrillo-Bucaram

About KRISTINA CARILLO-BUCARAM

ABOUT KRISTINA

FullyRaw is the creation of Kristina Carrillo-Bucaram, a pioneer in the local, organic food co-operative movement. The founder of the largest raw, organic produce co-operative in the U.S., she has been 100% raw for almost 7 years.An exemplification of all that she wishes to create, she is a leading visionaryin the raw movement, especially in Houston, TX.

She attended both Vanderbilt University and Rice University, and she graduated from Rice University on the top 5% of her class in 2009 with a triple majorin Kinesiology specializing in Health Science, Raw Foods, and Fasting. Since then, she has been involved highly in the movement of Organic Horticulture, Permaculture, and Co-operative Communities.

Kristina’s inspiration for being FullyRaw came after she was able to rid herselfof Hyperglycemia at the age of 18 eating nothing but a low fat raw vegan diet consisting solely of fresh fruits and vegetables with few nuts and seeds. After being a direct understudy of 20+ year raw fooder John Rose, she interned and worked under Dr. Graham at his health events in Seattle and in Costa Rica.

She has lived in the Dominican Republic and in Costa Rica, and she has becomean avidly enthusiastic runner who runs at least 6-8 miles a day!

At the age of 20 before she graduated college, she started the non-profit organization called Rawfully Organic. This organic produce co-operative in Houston, Texas grew from 12 people in her living room to over 6000 families in the greater Houston city limits. Rawfully Organic feeds over 450 families each week and focuses on the benefits of eating diets high in raw fruits and vegetables while making organic affordable for all. The nonprofit grosses more a million each year, and it stays true to its mission to support families in the Texas community to supply an abundance of organic produce to help them achieve their raw, vegetarian, or vegan lifestyle. To this day, the coop is 100% volunteer run, and not even Kristina chooses to write herself a paycheck.

Nick Ortner interviews Dr. Lissa Rankin – YouTube

Are you aware of how stress is affecting your life?

In our modern culture we tend to wear stress as a badge of honor. We simply say things like “Of course I’m stressed, who isn’t?” Stress tends to be connected with “working hard” and “being productive.” From work, to kids, to financial pressure, to physical challenges and emotional baggage…it’s no wonder we’re all so stressed out.

Dr. Lissa Rankin, M.D., author of the NY Times bestselling book “Mind Over Medicine” is an expert on the subject of stress. She herself left her traditional medical practice because of being overworked, stressed out, sick, and simply unwilling to keep up with the demanding hours expected as a doctor.

After leaving her traditional practice she joined a “cash basis” practice in a health conscious community, thinking that by spending more time with her patients she would see better results for both her clients and herself.

What she found in her supposedly “health conscious” community shocked her and led her to realize that for most people…

If you think you’re doing everything right…think again. Dr. Rankin’s most health conscious patients “Were doing everything right…but they were some of the sickest people I’d ever met.”

Her clients were the type most would think were healthy. They ate well, exercised, meditated, and overall lived a “healthy” lifestyle.

But what she came to realize…is that they were all stressed out. Just eating well, exercising and doing mind-body practices like meditation alone won’t keep you healthy if your stress levels are consistently elevated.

You see, our bodies are always being run by one of two nervous systems modes, either sympathetic or para-sympathetic. And although our bodies have natural self-repair mechanisms to deal with cancer cells, pathogens, bacteria, viruses and much more…these mechanisms ONLY work when our body is in the para-sympathetic mode…the relaxation response.

As Dr. Rankin discovered in working with her patients…

“You have to address the things in your life that are triggering the stress response to begin with…and EFT Tapping has been proven to activate the relaxation response which in turn activates the self-healing mechanisms.”

As Dr. Rankin shares… “What I love about Tapping is that it gets to the root of the limiting beliefs, that create the thoughts, that trigger the amygdala and the stress response to begin with.”

It’s critically important to address the beliefs like “I’m not worthy,” or “The world isn’t a safe place” or whatever the belief might be for you that is causing the thoughts that are triggering stress in your mind and body.

When you use EFT Tapping to get at the core of the issues, you stop the cycle of beliefs and thoughts that lead to stress and in turn to the self-repair mechanisms being shut off.This is why EFT Tapping is so extremely powerful in creating lasting health…

In this video Dr. Lissa Rankin, M.D. will share with you just how dangerous stress is to your health, what you can do to consistently activate the relaxation response today, and how you can use EFT Tapping to create long-lasting healing and balance….

Get ready for an eye-opening video that is going to have you rethinking just how important it is for you to release stress from your life. The research and science that Dr. Rankin will share with you will blow away your beliefs about the dangers of stress and the effects they’re having on your life.

If you want to discover how to create lasting, long-term, stress-free health…this video will show you the way…

What Rev. Malkmus Has Eaten For 38 Years | Hallelujah Health Tip

All due respect to the Rev. George Malkmus. Although I’m not of his religious beliefs and persuasion, it was his teachings and recommendations for barley grass powder and the vegan raw food diet (presently updated to whole food, plant-based diet)  that led me to healing of what was diagnosed as the beginning stages of lupus. I was able to go cold turkey off of all prescriptions and allergy shots just three months after starting this diet in January of 1997.  It’s over 17 years later and none of the symptoms have reappeared. I have remained prescription drug and allergy shot free and had no major illnesses and no colds or flu in over eight years, no flu shots. Folks, this is serious stuff. If you value your quality of life, please do some serious research into Dr. Malkmus’ site and view the Forks Over Knives DVD. Check out these links to others who have found this to be true in their own lives. I acknowledge that it’s not easy, but you’ll never regret giving it a try.
