Perhaps many nutritionists get trained in outdated techniques and the
information is, shall I say, narrow?  This is why I have not found a
Nutritionist course that will help one to become well-rounded.  So I have
taught myself, on the street (with people), reading everything I can get my
hands on, and practicing it.  You really have to have an intense interest in
finding out how the human body works, and how the whole Universe, Cosmos,
works, I believe, before you can become good at it.  Various courses tend to
narrowly focus one, and the student merely adopts the point of view that is
being taught.  So I have never found an adequate course/training.

You're exactly right.  Perhaps I overgeneralized.  I have found that most
people will never get to a 100% or even 80% raw diet, whether fruit or
vegetable and fruit.  I am very tolerant and try not to be righteous.  It
takes a long time to transition to a mostly raw diet, and not everyone can
handle a fruit diet, depending on their environment, climate, work
conditions, past dietary habits, and so on.  So I'm not entirely a raw-food
activist at all, I just find that making contacts through such lists is
useful.  Right?
