I like the way it makes me feel physically and mentally.
I like the easy preparation like peeling a banana for a meal.
What do you like about raw ?

I like that it is so forgiving. I have had a little (actually a lot of) trouble eating the high percentage raw food that I know is best for me over the past few months, especially December. I am getting back into it -- just had a 32 oz. green smoothie and feel amazing!!! I've been doing better the past couple of days and I already feel the difference. I plan to go 100% on the first of Jan. I also like how easy it really is, when you consider the alternative -- cooking. It takes a lot of time and makes huge messes!! I like that I can make an awesome raw soup or "pasta" dish in ten minutes, and nothing is stuck on anything -- everything just rinses clean. I like that my weight and energy levels regulate themselves and that I "glow" -- people tell me that when I am all raw. I love that I can go pick my food and just eat it. Grazing in the garden is my favorite summer pastime -- ever since I was little, that's where I'd be if my parents couldn't find me. Or in a fruit tree! I could go on and on...

Beyond all the illusions of complexity, I believe that the true, natural "profession" of humans is to tend to fruits and vegetables.

I love that being raw provides such insights.

Amongst many things, I love the fact that I haven't had a cold for three years. Touch wood.

Ditto everything you said EZ.

Simple Raw Recipes & Health Tips

I love that God made this fresh natural raw food for me to eat as food.

Eating raw is one way we have to instantly be more receptive to our inner God.
I say that because of the living enzymes in raw foods.Its like the enzymes are messengers to our spirituality,and cooked dead foods are blockages.That ONE idea concept is what keeps me hanging in there with raw.

There is no other time when I am as spiritually at peace as on the days I eat all raw.

I like the fact that the Raw food movement is probably the most colourful of all movements...If you look at most restaurants they look boringly pompus. While the raw restaurants seem to be fun and vibrant and seem to be alive.

Well, not enough room here for all the reasons. So i will stick to just the most important to me.

i love how an all raw diet clears my mind so that i can be in clearer communication with my Creator and receive His Spirit more readily.

i love how the Creator made the earth to give us iher fruit for food, its so natural; and how the food the earth gives does nothing but gives to us. i believe since i have begun to eat all raw i have a higher degree of respect for the earth.

i believe my temperment is much calmer when i eat an all raw diet, yet my body is full of energy. i love how my system does not need to work hard to receive all the goodness built into raw foods.


i could go on and on......but you get the point


Grace and peace be multiplied.
