health in the face of eating cooked and animal foods,
toxic dental work (root canals and amalgams), dealing with
huge mycotoxic loads (fungus) and environmental pollution."

If you’re around children much you know they get sick
hard and fast. The healthier the child, the most intense
their symptoms and the quicker they get well.
As adults upgrade their health, they recapture their
ability to enjoy rapid ”karmic return”. In other words,
the healthier a person the harder and faster they detox.

Divine Food for Divine Beauty
by Tonya Zavasta
The phrase ”natural beauty” has been abused and misused beyond restoration. The modern use is almost never associated with its true meaning. Someone said there should be a portrait of a healthy person in a museum so people would know what they are talking about. If we don’t know what a healthy person looks like, how do we know what natural beauty is?
In our unnatural world, the word ”natural” no longer means without effort, at least not in the realm of obtaining your best look. One thing is a must in def ... read more Miracle Of Raw Food/Healing 19 y

RAW FOOD - THE KEY TO VIBRANT HEALTH AND LONGEVITY
by David Wolfe
All animals living in the wild eat their food raw and, almost always, fresh. Raw is Nature’s First Law. Only humans and domesticated animals eat cooked and processed foods.
The cooking and processing of foods has become so common that most of us do not even question it. The assumption that cooked and processed foods are as good as raw foods is just an assumption. Most people do not know for sure, because they have never tried a ... read more Why All Should Eat Only Raw Foods Always 19 y

When food is cooked above 118 degrees F for three minutes or longer, its protein has become coagulated, its sugar has become caramelized, its natural fibers have been broken down, which means it will take longer to move through the intestinal tract, 30% to 50% of its vitamins and minerals have been destroyed and 100% of its enzymes have been destroyed. Cooked food depletes our body’s enzyme potential and drains the energy we need to maintain and repair our tissues and organ systems and ... read more **Raw Vegan/B12 Issue** 19 y

"The advantages of the raw diet are varied. Besides the instant weight loss, it provides the body with a plethora of vitamins and apparently, all 96 minerals the body needs. And Iverson insists it helps solve the three most common immune system problems in the human body: high acidity, candida (yeast-infection parasites) and de-mineralization. Most raw foodists claim they haven’t been sick since they’ve adopted their new diet."

VANCOUVER - As I walk into the Living Source Cafe on Commercial Drive in Vancouver, I’m overwhelmed with the shiny hardwood floors and oversized glass sculptures that glimmer in the sunlight. Mark, the owner of the cafe, will boast that it is the only entirely raw restaurant in Vancouver. I’ve come to listen to Chris Iverson, the raw food expert who helped Mark open this restaurant, speak about the raw food lifestyle.

RAW-FOOD DIET
From my own experiences of healing as well as from reading many published reports it is obvious to me that a raw-food diet is not only the most natural but also the most effective nutritional measure for healing and rejuvenation. While only few will be strong enough to adopt a complete raw food diet for life, it will be good for everyone to have occasional periods on raw foods only. At other times you may use the principles described in the following to increase the percentage of y ... read more Asserting Democratic Control of Food and Agriculture 19 y
"While we fight the fires forced upon us, let's not confuse reaction to a problem with proactive strategy. And while we build sustainable alternatives, we will create space for sustainable practices to become the norm only if we dismantle the mechanisms of corporate rule."
A profound saying goes ”a thousand beating at the leaves...one snipping at the root.” I believe that Dave Henson has identifies the ”root” of corporate rule (which applies very much to health and diet). Time to snip that root.

What Happens to Food When It Is Cooked
by Frederick Mann
(a) Some of the nutrients are destroyed (vitamins, minerals, amino acids, etc.). Most conventional nutritionists agree.
(b) All the enzymes are destroyed. Enzymes are essential for proper digestion. Some enzymes speed up certain digestive processes a millionfold.
(c) The ratios of nutrients are changed. In the case of meat, relatively more vitamin B6 than methionine is destroyed, leading to atherogenic free-radical-initiating homocysteine accumulation. In other words, cooked meat causes hear ... read more ~Why Raw~ 19 y

As a kid, I knew that almost everything I ate came from just minutes away, and I think I assumed it was that way for everyone. Pacific Grove, where I grew up, is a little town on the Central Coast of California, and just a breath away from the giant Salinas Valley, one of the largest areas of agricultural production in the country, with endless fields of lettuce, artichokes, garlic, carrots, strawberries, and Brussels sprouts.

The Journey to Rawdom: Vision
By Karen Knowler
When you first came across the concept of raw eating, do you remember what thoughts first crossed your mind or how you felt? Did you try to imagine how you would look or feel if you began it yourself? Or did your body and mind become all-consumed by your excitement as your mind filled with visions of an internal and external paradise? A life lived with excitement and enthusiasm and the energy to pull it all off? Or, perhaps, after months or years of ill health, you ... read more Ten Advantages Of Eating Raw 19 y

The human race learned long ago that cooking meat before eating it would protect them from certain diseases. Since then this practice of cooking has grown to include all types of foods and is now considered an art. Very few meals are eaten which include raw elements, except for the leafy green salad.
One advantage of eating raw is that it brings Nature’s intentions into focus. When I speak of eating raw I am referring to fruit, nuts, and vegetables, which taste good to the majority of humankind in their basic simplicity d ... read more Demi in the Raw 19 y

You’ve just made one of the most crucial, health-affirming decisions in your life – you’ve decided to stop consuming cooked foods. Now the real adventure begins - how to stay on your raw food path.

Just because someone can conceive and deliver a baby doesn’t automatically make that person a good parent, capable of nurturing a newborn into a healthy, balanced adult. In the same way, just because someone can bury a seed in the ground and water it occasionally doesn’t make that person a good farmer, capable of guiding a plant to fulfill its greatest potential for flavor and nutrition.
So then, what does make a good farmer? My interest in b ... read more |
