I Am Hooked on Eating Raw

Driven by constant pain the last few years, I have looked into many traditional and alternative therapies, hoping to find something to help me stay an active member of society. (Prescribed Drugs were not the answer to staying active.)

My sister introduced me to the concept of 'eating raw' over a year ago, I must admit that I did not take it too seriously, I love food way too much to devote myself to only eating the raw ones! That is what I was thinking at the time anyway.

Therefore, when I visited her for a couple of weeks I decided to give it a try and eat everything she was eating and nothing else. It was such a great way to start, since she was doing all of the food preparation and I was just eating it. (By the way, she has always been an outstanding Cook, making fresh bread for her husband several times a week.)

After two weeks of eating the best that a raw food diet could offer, I was hooked. The menu was phenomenal, I could eat all that I wanted, and I started feeling better.

I am now convinced; that this is the best thing I could have done for my health. My blood pressure and cholesterol counts are fantastic for a woman of my (Mature) age.
