Dolphin Health and Education

1. What is the definition of vibrant health?

Dolphin's definition of vibrant health is an energizing, exciting, stimulating yet restful and peaceful assurance of mental, physical and spiritual soundness that can only come from following God's original raw food lifestyle as described in the Bible in Genesis 1:29.

2. When following a plant-based diet, is there any concern for lack of protein?

Protein is found in all plant foods. Protein is necessary for the infrastructure of plant cells. When following a plant-based diet, it is possible to consume too much protein. The idea of "lack of protein" in a plant-based diet is a propaganda from industries and special interest groups that have financial interests in the investment as well as plain ignorance. The Standard American Diet (SAD) promotes excessive protein intake, along with refined fats and refined carbohydrates. Protein deficiency is uncommon in the American diet.

3. Is there enough calcium in a plant-based diet?

The influencial power of the media and industries in the minds of people is evident when the question of calcium is raised during a discussion on plant-based diet. It is assumed that dairy products provide the necessary calcium in the diet to maintain strong bones and teeth. Millions of dollars are spent by industries to promote calcium containing products for the sake of monetary gain. Pressure from special interest groups scare the public of chronic degenerative diseases such as osteoporosis. The root cause of the problem is not a lack of dietary calcium but rather too much calcium lost in the urine due to the predominance of acid forming foods in the SAD. Dark leafy greens are an excellent source of dietary calcium without the negative effect of acid formation.

4. Is there any danger in losing too much weight at once?

Rapid weight loss occurs when people follow a high raw plant-based diet because the caloric intake is significantlhy reduced. As long as the nutrient density in the diet is high and there is no interference in cellular uptake, the body is getting the necessary nourishment. The rapid weight loss seen in people who reduce their caloric intake in the Standard American Diet (SAD) is usually due to decreasing meal sizes while at the same time following an exercise program. The SAD does not supply the body with the high nutrient density food that is found in the high raw plant-based diet and can therefore lead to malnutrition besides rapid weight loss when food portions are reduced. On the other hand, people following a high raw plant-based diet are eating more while losing weight.

5. What is the Standard American Diet?

A diet high in animal protein, high in animal fats, high in refined carbohydrates, high in processed foods, low in complex carbohydrates, and low in fiber.

6. What is CPR food?

In conventional healthcare, the acronym CPR stands for cardiopulmonary resusitation. Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the U.S. Here at Dolphin CPR stands for Cooked, Processed, and Refined food, which comprises the food in the Standard American Diet. Eating the SAD places a person at high risk for heart disease and may actually become a recipient of cardiopulmonary resusitation (CPR).

9. Is there a difference between exercise and eating when it comes to health?

Yes, there is a big difference. You exercise your way to physical fitness. You eat your way to health! Physical fitness and health are not equal. But you need both and more when you are looking for vibrant health!
