Hi Christina,
Your video isn’t available for public viewing. You’ll need to change the access settings so we can view it.
Christina – The link says the content is not available. If you have a video try submitting it again – let us know!
Hi Vani. I sent my video in on time but I do not see my name listed. There is another Rachel though.. It is on your facebook site and your website since I carefully followed all directions!
Here is the link:

Thank you so much!
Hi Rachel,

I changed it to public so it should work now! Thanks for your help!

Thank you! It is public now!
https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=10206220207449311&set=vb.1388599431&type=2&theater
Each and every video submitted contains inspiration! Thanks to all for sharing your story!
My favorite is Andrew’s; it’s got glitz, it’s got Hollywood glamour, it’s got great facts, and best of all – it’s got humor! 😀
One thing is for certain, Vani has already changed MANY lives, and I for one am eternally grateful!
We must keep spreading the word!! There are plenty of people out there just like us who don’t even realize that they’re suffering from the tainted food supply.
Anyone who is a nay-sayer or disbeliever of The Food Babe Way need only watch our videos and eat the FBW and they too would see improvements in their physical, mental, and even spiritual health.
Ailments, diseases and obesity are being cured, and we are the proof!
Vani, thank you for all that you’ve done in opening people’s eyes, and for the waking of the masses that is surely to come.
Please keep up the good fight. We need you! THE WORLD needs you! I’ll try to do my small part to help spread the word about what I refer to as “The Food Bible” aka The #FoodBabeWay ! Blessings and love to you always! xo
Here’s mine. 🙂

Got it. Thanks!

Yep, thanks!
I still do not see my name up there.
Love what Mary’s Place by the Sea is doing to help women heal from the inside out..surrounded by love and beauty!
Hi Food Babe!

I posted, but I didn’t see my name 🙁
We’ve got it now, thanks!
Posted mine on time too. Didn’t see my name.

I had so much sharing and being creative in delivering my story!
Everyone’s story is amazing!
Alex! What a fantastic way of sharing your story. Your dedication to nutrition is contagious!
Omg, Alexandra’s food babe army outfit is so clever! I love it. I salute!
I posted mine on YouTube and tagged to your Facebook account… Ruby Miller
Entering the #foodbabeway video contest!: http://youtu.be/kx2qlRbyZWE
Just watched the first 15 videos with my 9 and 11 yr old kids, so far they vote for Gallagher Family and Andrew ( the first video) !
All of them are great and inspirational! Will continue watching and vote for some more tomorrow.
Thanks!
Dawn video 3, she is my friend and her story of beating cancer twice is what inspired me to start reading your blog and get my whole family to juice and change our diet this week! We are currently planting our own organic vegetable garden to juice from. Thank you Food Babe!
I have learned so much from the women of Mary’s Place by the Sea. While I do not have cancer, Michele and Maria inspire me to get healthier and prevent disease. Took a peak at your book while I was there, I will be ordering my own today. Thank you.
I posts mine on twitter and youtube and don’t see it here. Here is the link. http://youtu.be/c00SFZYWEdU
Thanks!
There are many amazing videos, but I Love “Mary’s Place by the Sea”! It’s a wonderful organization helping women with cancer.
OMG, these videos were a roller coaster of emotion! I laughed and I cried.
Let me say that if at any time Vani you feel discouraged or you begin to question if you are truly making a difference, you most certainly are by the looks of these vids!
You have definitely helped me in my journey which began a couple of years ago. When I came across your webpage a few months ago, it enhanced my growing knowledge and served to be the confirmation I needed to continue to move forward and hopefully spread the message that Big AG and the government are NOT looking out for us and certainly not our children! They are all about the bottom line and screwing anyone who tries to get in their way (pardon my language) but, this gets me fired up! I purchased your book and I couldn’t put it down. I think I finished reading it in two days!
From one North Carolina girl to another, Thank you, Thank you, Thank you and keep moving onward and upward! I think it’s time for you to do a TED talk! 🙂
P.S. I know I can’t judge and I don’t envy you in trying to find a winner however, if it were up to me, Dawn Ford had a truly wonderful story and so did Christina Lukach!
You’re so right Tee Jay! And I totally agree that it’s time for Vani to do a TED talk!!!
Literally blown away. Please get these videos out to more people because they are truly inspiring and that is what the internet is for. For the little people to get access to information (that they otherwise wouldn’t) that might just change their lives.
Food Babe – This is a much higher resolution of my original video submission – it will be much more informative for your viewers. Please REPLACE the one that you have with this one – it’s the exact same video, just of higher quality – THANKS !

My favorite video so far is Kathy Salberta. To loose the weight and effect the type of changes she is showing us…she has had to stay faithful day in and day out. Praise the Lord for overcoming grace! She’s my pick
Thank you so much, Mary! It was such a blessing to read this today! 🙂
Katie Flack had the most inspirational story, I watched her progress for the entire year and this video really highlights everything that she has accomplished!
Thank you for all you do!! I have learned so much from you and it have improved my life in so many ways!!!
I just finished watching your Food Babe video contestants videos. They were wonderful! I also ordered your book and can’t wait to read it! I love your emails and have given up ALL processed foods, fast foods and soda. I drink my lemon water every morning and drink smoothies every day… I am on a mission to change my childrens lives too. They are adults though, and they don’t know about you and your mission, so I am going to buy them each a copy of your book… Thank you Vani. You are a special person!
Katie’s video was super inspiring. She makes it look so simple and I admire her journey because she has small children and was determined to change her life. I could relate to her story because she quit smoking and has small children and is surrounded by foods her children consume on a daily basis and was still able to keep to her new healthy lifestyle to reach her goals and become a stronger, healthier person for herself and her family.
OMG Andrew!!! That kid is so wonderful at getting his heartfelt point/info across. Hoping Hollywood see’s this as well. Amazing~
After watching about half of these videos they are all inspirational! The one that got me the most was Katie’s! I loved how you could see what she was eating verses what she is eating now! Big change! The music was a good touch and the pictures of her and her family touched home for me! ❤
I think you missed one in the list!

Outstanding vids!!, all good in their respective ways. It looks like one of the gov’ts trolls snuck in a link, trying his best to discredit you Vani… didn’t work well though.
Congrats on a job well done!.
Wow – this is amazing. Thank you for all that you do Vani and Foodbabe Team! Look at how you are changing and dramatically improving people’s lives everyday! I am so inspired and and can’t wait to receive your book in the mail. Keep up the amazing work!
TIME Poll: Drudge, Food Babe Far More Influential Than Obama
http://www.prisonplanet.com/time-poll-drudge-food-babe-far-more-influential-than-obama.html
Amazingly inspiring videos! My favorite is Alexandra’s! It is so easy to forget about yourself & her video is not only inspiring but reminded me to make time for me, exercise & enjoy life!
Mary’s Place by the Sea gets my vote. Women who suffer from cancer can go there for a respite and learn how to heal themselves naturally. Mary’s Place gives women guidance in nutrition, as well as other physical/mental needs they may have as they continue their journey. They can come to this unique setting free for a day or overnight and enjoy the beauty of the Ocean Grove seaside.

We have your entry. Thanks Rachel!
I am trying to find one of Vani’s videos to share with a friend. It is the one where she talks about how she had severe psoriasis as a teenager and by changing her eating habits she no longer has this condition. Please help me find it so I can share it.
Thank You
vani,
Thank you for sharing all of these videos.
rachel p’s story is moving, it’s truthful and it’s inspiring. Her fight is like Vani’s, she wants to encourage others and her dedication is present in everything she does.
