Hi all.

I am very interested in rawfoodism and wondering what the best way to get educated about it is so I can teach/help others. Are there schools, programs, etc. for rawfoodism?

Any advice?

The only "specialists" I have seen in raw food are practicing chiropractors or nutritionists. There are some culinary schools that have a special certification offered for whole foodism.

dr. gabriel cousens has a place called patagonia ( i never went but heard stories)

google him and find out

there are supposed to be lots of classes etc.

u can get certified etc.

personally though i think the best way to educate yourself is just by reading , researching ( like here or other boards) experimenting and doing

u will find so many opinions out there

but if u wanna check out the patagonia place

i think its in... shoots... i forget the state... arizona? someone fill in the blanks for me... i'm too lazy to look it up right now tongue sticking out smiley

There's a college for natural medicine. I'm probably going to end up going to a hippie school and crossing my fingers for some raw foodist friends, haha.

Thanks everyone. I should say that besides my interest in my own health, I would like to be able to share my knowledge to help others like you all are doing, but would also love to somehow make even a meager living doing it.

Please advise

I would love to know if there are any places in Florida that teach raw nutrition!

There is a school that someone who's going to speak at my local Co-Op graduated from called the Institute for Integrative Nutrition, I think. It's in New York City. I'm probably going to apply there if I decide to study nutrition, although I really wanted to move somewhere tropical. sad smiley!

Do you know about the tree of life in Patagona, Arizona? Doctor Gabriel Cousens runs this center.

Hi. I just got turned on to the Gabriel Cousins and the tree of life in patagonia. Looks interesting, intense, must look into it more. He has some good books out too.

I just stopped by CCA California College of Ayurveda on my way to Oregon. It's not strictly a raw food school, but has the same intent and spirit.
