Raw Radiant Health

I received an email today asking me for advice on how to get over a coffee addiction. Oh boy, I have been there!!! I used to be completely addicted to coffee and I’m proud to say that the day I went raw, was the day I let go of coffee as well. To be honest, I did feel the pain– the migraine headache that accompanies caffeine withdrawl, but besides that, I got over it pretty quickly. So today I give you a few different tips and ways to either cut coffee out all at once or using healthier substitutes to gradually come off the caffeine.

Have a great weekend everyone!!!

Getting started on a raw food diet can be daunting, especially when you look through raw food recipe books that list 10+ ingredients for just one dish and you have to use all sorts of equipment you have never heard of or seen before! Trust me, I’ve been there! When I first got started on a  100% raw food diet I didn’t even have a proper chef knife– but that didn’t hold me back and in fact it made the whole experience all the more fun and entertaining!!

So, on todays episode I talk all about kitchen equipment and what I believe you need when you get started on a raw food diet.

So today I received an interesting email, I loved the question!!! I was asked about finding the love of your life while on a raw food diet. As we all know, we eat very differently than majority of the population and what do we do when we are dating? What do we do if people judge us? Will Prince/Princess Charming love and adore us even if we are only eating raw fruits and vegetables? — I believe, Yes!!

Yesterday I received a great question from a viewer on YouTube, she was asking how do we know if the raw food diet is good for us? I loved the question because it got me thinking of all the benefits I’ve had since going on raw foods and why I am so committed to staying on it!
