Newbie - HELP!

Hi All,

I’m a newbie to raw eating. I’m looking for some guidance…what are the basic rules? I’ve read about being able to use heat, up to a certain point…not being able to eat yogurt (does this mean all dairy is out?). I’m just wondering…I’m not totally raw, but am trying to incorporate more into my life, and will see where it goes from here.

What are some things – health-wise – I should look for when starting a raw diet?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

:)

  • Hello! Welcome to the life of raw food!!! I am still new and have found a few books to be really helpful. 12 steps to raw food by Viktoria Boutenko is great…it gives you all the tid bits that will help…also Natalia Rose’ books are great…...but to answer your question yes dairy is out. You can make your own almond milk and other nut milks….I have yet to try this but will soon….Good luck and enjoy! :)

  • Thanks so much everyone…especially for the information I can read! That’s what I need to do. I’ve been having smoothies for breakfast for about a week now, the last three days have been “green” – pretty yummy! Also, adding lots of salads to the daily menu, too.

    I am such a dairy eater, that I’m not sure about getting rid of that…yet. We’ll see what the future brings.

    Thanks again, I truly appreciate the guidance.

    Happy Healthful Eating!
