Transitioning to raw food was so NOT advanced for me. I am stunned and amused by all of the gurus, coaches, superfoods, intense detox symptoms... it makes me want to lie down and take a big nap!

Sometimes I think school trains people to think they need a teacher for every darn thing!
I was intrigued talking to someone who was raw, then read David Wolfe's "Eating for Beauty", and had a lot of FUN playing with the ideas and branching out! Later I read Natalia Rose's "The Raw Food Detox Diet" and got some recipe ideas.

It was simple, easy, fun and supported by my SELF-knowing.
I was never interested in buying a dehydrator and eating dried out food, and had a simple approach from the start.
I enjoy goji berries, maca and e3live, but honestly I think you will be fine without those or spirulina, raw cocoa or monoatomic gold.
That is where Dr. Douglas Graham's "80/10/10 Diet" and I agree.

It is so important to relax, trust yourself and just have FUN with it!
I am all about fresh organic produce, variety, green smoothies & juices, salads, trusting my body, and being flexible when necessary.

On my Bali trip, the yoga instructor was so happy to meet a raw food person who can be flexible when travelling and so easy going about it. Her experience with raw food people had previously been so annoying and negative.

Have FUN finding the right fuel mix for you! The only rule is that it feels right for YOU! YOUR health, energy and experience will tell you all YOU need to know!

HR 875 Update from Organic Consumers Association

ALERT Update OF THE WEEK
HR 875 Update: Will the Real "Monsanto Bill" Please Stand Up?
News of a "Monsanto Bill to Criminalize Organic Farming" has been speeding around the internet. The Organic Consumers Fund, OCA's lobbying partner in Washington, DC, analyzed the bill and determined that we could not support food safety legislation like this that could be applied in a one-size-fits-all manner to all farms, including organic and farm-to-consumer operations -- especially a bill that references the National Animal Identification System (a voluntary USDA animal tagging program that some influential members of Congress are trying to make mandatory for every owner of even a single farm animal). With these concerns, we put out this alert on March 12.
Nevertheless, we were alarmed by the misleading headlines attached to anti-HR 875 alerts. Even if this bill were passed as is today, it wouldn't criminalize organic farming. The bill would require farms to have a food safety plan, allow their records to be inspected, and comply with food safety regulations. To say this is tantamount to criminalization doesn't give organic farmers enough credit.
Worse, linking this bill to Monsanto (for no other reason than because the bill's sponsor Rosa DeLauro is married to political operative Stan Greenberg, who lists Monsanto as a past client) obscures the real damage Monsanto is doing in Congress. This past week, Monsanto got a bill passed in committee that forces GMOs on Africa.
