Is a raw diet good for jet lag, humidity

& heat tolerance and insect repellent?

By Susan Schenck

When I went back to Indiana after being a raw foodist, I noticed

something strange: Jet lag never lasted more than one day. In my

20s, I would go there and stay up watching TV hours after everyone

went to bed, since my body was telling me that it was 3 hours earlier.

This would last the entire duration of theĀ one or two-week visit.

But after going raw, the body would be on track with the local

time within 24 hours! I would also wake up at the local time of

8 AM instead of hours later, such as 10 or 11 AM.

Another interesting thing, when I would go to Indiana or visit

friends in Florida, I noticed the heat and humidity just didn't

bother me like it did even when I was a teenager! I felt

comfortable taking walks at midday even though it was 90 F

and I felt at times that I could have been in Arizona, because

I barely noticed the humidity!

Furthermore, when family and friends would get geared up with

insect repellant, I didn't bother (feeling that the toxicity of the

repellant outweighed the nuisance of being bit.) To my surprise,

bugs didn't bite me. This has led me to suspect that on a natural

nontoxic diet, maybe we emit natural insecticides just like plants do.

If you grow plants organically without pesticides, and give them

mineral-rich soil, they do not need toxic sprays since they emit their

own natural defenses against bugs.
