Raw Food Lifestyle...The Best Way to Optimum Health!

Tomorrow is a milestone for me as it marks the completion of 6 months that I have been primarily (90%) on a raw food vegan diet.  This experiment has been so successful that it has evolved into a lifestyle change as I have experienced the following benefits:

• weight loss (15 lbs.) and reduced body fat
• increase in energy levels (avg. 4-5 hrs. sleep)
• consistently better digestion and elimination
• mental clarity and enhanced ability to focus
• smoother and softer skin
• elimination of food addictions and allergies

I have been very fortunate to have had an easy transition into this new lifestyle due to the fact that my wife, Avara, has been eating raw vegan for 11 months and has evolved into a raw food chef extraordinaire!  Her creations are tastier than anything I have ever eaten!  So, not only am I not deprived in the satiety factor, but my satisfaction and appreciation have reached levels I would not have thought possible.  Now, when we lovingly prepare our food we not only receive the benefits of what we are eating (important protein and phytonutrients that are not destroyed in the cooking process), we also receive the benefits of the blissful positive thoughts we are having about the taste of our food and its supportive and nourishing qualities for our bodies.

A raw food lifestyle has the ability to cure so many common dis-eases (e.g., diabetes), and can, singlehandedly, transform the health insurance nightmare that is now being played out in our national politics.

There are two worthwhile documentaries I would recommend that highlight and discuss a raw food lifestyle; "Simply Raw", and "FoodMatters".

We already have all of the answers and solutions to our national health crisis.  Our bodies and brains are the most powerful healing mechanism on the planet.  At this time in humanity's evolution, we are being called to make a change.  Our thoughts and beliefs can either do us harm and continue to create dis-ease, or they can become the healing power that can take us to a new expanded and joyous way of Being.  When we "Wake-Up!" to this then we become available to be the instrument through which miracles happen!
