The Secrets of a Raw Vegan Diet (Nutrition & Weight Loss Book 1)

A diet which is mostly RAW / or 70 % RAW containing lots of fruit and veg has many long term health benefits including the resolve/ delay/ offset of many Western style 'affluent' diseases. Of course weightloss/ fat reduction will go hand in hand with RAW food diets due to the due to the high fibre/water content and the high level and absorption of EFA's (essentail fatty acids), minerals and vitamins. Other major benefits of going RAW include the increase in enzyme behaviour and production within the body especially if cooked food is heated to within a temperature of 112 deg fahrenheit (44.4 deg Celcius).

The benefits of a 'Raw Food Diet' are not just in the fighting and prevention of disease but the vast improvement in health and energy. Only when the body is detoxified, healthy and rejuvenated can fat and weight loss be achieved! Otherwise, losing weight by fads, weight loss pills, surgery and restrictive diets may work in the short term but are not a long term solution. Poor health, toxicity and acidity will surely follow as well as the return of extra body weight and abdominal fat..

There are many types of Raw Food Diets and they all act as a stepping stones to being totally RAW. A total 100% Raw Vegan Diet is probably the hardest to achieve out of all Raw Food Diets but from the research carried out this diet has the highest health benefits of all leaving you toxic free, light on your feet and full of energy.

We look at all the Raw Food Diets there are including the best ones to start with so you may only start 70% RAW with 30% of your foods cooked. This is known as a 'Mainstream Raw Food Diet'. We also show you how to gradually eliminate toxic foods from your life, the essential healthy foods you will need for your kitchen and how to prepare your kitchen for eating RAW.

By going RAW or 70% RAW does not mean you cannot enjoy your life. The beauty of RAW foods is that they are high in fibre, vitamins and minerals and you can eat until you are completely satisfied. There are no restrictions here and importantly no counting of calories (we will tell you why later) and you can still lose weight and improve your health. Furthermore, raw vegan foods are not boring as the extensive menu/ recipes in the final chapter includes tasty shakes, raw naked chocolate (cacao) cakes, raw naked chocolate brownies, raw cheesecakes, raw soups and other raw dishes such as raw lasagne, raw suschi which are loaded with vital vitamins & minerals, amino acids, EFA's, fibre and complex carbohydrates.

Malik has been a health conscious vegetarian for over 30 years. In the last 10 years he has been actively promoting Raw Food with Cafe Grace Bath, UK. Cafe Grace organises Raw Food 'Pot Lucks' and work shops on a weekly basis. A chance meeting with Dave 'Avocado' Wolfe in Glastonbury 2 years ago has inspired Malik to undertake research into vegan dishes/ desserts that include superfoods such as the raw chocolate cacao bean. Due to the popularity of these desserts such as the Ananda Brownie and Raw Naked Chocolate Lemon Cheesecake, Cafe Grace now appears at events/ festivals around the country.

We hope you allow us to show you how to take that first step to a full or partial RAW Vegan Diet, thereby re-energising your life and all those around you.
