Joined July 9, 2015<p>Like most, I had a good reason to do so, because originally I definitely didn't feel for raw pumpkin spaghetti or cold cucumber soup ...</p> <p>It all started after the birth of my second daughter when I was suffering from persistent migraine attacks and got really tired of running from doctor to doctor. I was willing to try anything that could help - and somehow I finally landed at the raw food diet after a long search. Fearless and with great disgust I ate cold Zucchini Spaghetti, but soon discovered that there are a great variety of delicious raw food recipes that you really can enjoy of. My family - my husband and two daughters (16, 3 years) - joined my raw food experiments, which was great luck for me because it enabled me to integrate plant based fresh food more and more into our diet.</p> <p>An almost immediate effect of my raw food experiment was that my headache disappeared after a few days and I felt extremely powerful. My inner biologist needed to get more knowledge about living food so I bought books, read articles and studies, and constantly experimented with new recipes. I was impressed by the basicity and the high vitamin content of this kind of food, even if I decided for myself not to go the 100-percent-way. By the time I found the thematic corset "raw food" a little bit too tight so I began to occupy myself with so called "Super Food" (food with a very high density of nutrients) to expand my range.</p> <p>In the Matthew Kenney Culinary Academy (http://www.matthewkenneycuisine.com) I finally experienced some of the most intense weeks of my life, learned a lot about preparation and photographing of raw plant based dishes. This was the beginning of my blog bestofrawandsuperfood.com.<br />With this blog I want to share my knowledge and my own personal experiences about beauty, taste and health effects of raw food dishes. And I would be happy to share my enthusiasm about this extremely empowering kind of nutrition with anybody of you out there.</p>
