What Is Raw? 

Typically raw means not heating anything beyond 104 - 114 degrees (F). Nothing processed is included in a raw vegan diet.


Why raw?

While I don't live fully raw, our family eats as many raw fruits and vegetables as possible, cutting out processed foods whenever we can.

The vitamins, minerals and nutrients we all need come from either the sun, the soil, or from plants. Everything we need can be found in a raw vegan diet but it takes awareness with each meal to maintain balance.

I wanted to cut sugar and get serious about my gut health.  Everything changed when I did.

I found that my appreciation for the simple things expanded, the beauty of life deepened and I saw every moment as a gift in a new way. I felt connected for the first time ever- to my food.  


High Raw | Macrobiotic

Living high raw for me means having coffee sometimes in the morning. When I add cooked food, the focus is plant based-macrobiotic.
