Starting on Raw Food....
Posted by: guy500 ()

Hi

I would really like to increase the amount of raw food in my diet, but whenever I have tried this in the past, it has been catastrophic.

I think I understand now. One part of it is the immediate drastic increase in fibre, which I should probably transition to more carefully next time.

But I think it is also because most raw recipes that I have seen involve significant amounts of high-sugar foods (dried fruits/dates, raw honey/agarve syrup, etc) and nuts. Both of these wreck my system (even if the nuts are raw & organic and have been soaked, sprouted, etc).

Does anyone know where I can get guidance on transitioning to a more raw lifestyle while avoiding these ingredients that are really not good for me?

seems like those ingredients are mostly for raw desserts ,, not raw entrees

veggies are great due to high mineral and you can make a salad dressing that doesnt have fruit....

I still love to have this dip around. IMO, it's the only thing that replaces hummus well.

P.S. Personally I leave out probiotic and digestive enzyme powders in this type of recipe. I just make the recipes as you would normal ones and refrigerate.
