What is Everyday Raw Gourmet?

Everyday Raw Gourmet is an approach to eating mostly raw foods that will make us feel our absolute healthiest and allow our bodies to heal naturally.  When we eat mostly raw food, we preserve foods natural enzymes, allowing them to digest seamlessly.  When we digest food easily, our bodies have the ability to access optimal nutrition while allowing us to heal.

By Raw Food, I am not talking only about carrots sticks and wheatgrass juice. How aboutFettuccini Alfredo, Golden Butternut Squash Soup with Sage and Walnut Pesto, Tiramisu, andchocolate/cherry Biscotti, all raw, all pure, and all helping you to feel( and look) fantastic whlile loosing weight?

Research has long shown that eating a largely plant based diet can prevent serious disease, prolong life, and help us feel and look younger. Now there is evidence of dramatically increased benefits from eating a raw plant based diet. A raw food diet is one made up of raw fruits, vegetables, legumes, nuts, seeds and grains. Foods are heated to no more than 112F, preventing the destruction of precious enzymes. Known as the “life force” in foods, enzymes are believed to improve digestion and fight disease.

Eating a healthy and mostly raw vegetarian diet, however, can be easier said than done.  Up until quite recently, raw food trends have been associated with heavy nut-based meals that take hours to prepare, or are lacking in culinary creativity. This has been a challenge for many of us who want to eat a largely raw food diet, but don’t want to spend hours in the kitchen. We want the same exquisite cuisine we loved before “going raw.” The Everyday Raw Gourmet will provide inspired raw recipes, that are so light and delicious, you’ll never miss those heavy  foods that used to make you feel sick.

After eating an Everyday Raw Gourmet diet people often report:

• almost instantly feeling more energetic
• needing less sleep
• feeling more positive and clear headed
• finally feeling in control of their eating habits
• weight loss to one’s optimal weight  simply as a side effect of eating this way
• the disappearance of many chronic ailments( including high blood pressure and diabetes)
