I try my best to make sure I nutrify with these raw food superfoods everyday for optimal health and vitality:

Blue Green Algae like E3Live, either in flakes or the frozen whole version. This raw food can be a bit intense, but is super for strengthening our immune system.
Kelp Noodles and Sea Vegetables, high in minerals, fat free, gluten free, wheat free, low in carbohydrates and calories. Kelp Noodles are a raw food, and have only 6, that’s six, calories a serving!
Maca Root Powder, strengthens our adrenals to handle stress.
Omegas from raw, sprouted Hemp, Flax, and Chia. I blend it all into my morning smoothie.
Antioxidants from Acai, Blueberry, Mangosteen. Navitas Naturals has a great raw food mix of these in powder form, which I put in my smoothies.

What Raw Food is for me

Many of you have been asking me what exactly a raw food diet consists of. More than just a diet, raw foods are a way of living. I ideally enjoy eating raw, organic, whole, and fresh vegetables, fruits, nuts and seeds. Personally, I don’t use grains nor legumes in my raw food.

Our journey to health is a continuum. Yesterday we may have been vegan, enjoying processed GMO soy fake meat products. That’s a step healthier than the real meat that was eaten previously. Today, we may enjoy a raw food nut pate made with sea salt, which is healthier than the table salt we used yesterday.

Remember, change doesn’t happen overnight. It’s important to love ourselves and to notice how we feel as the percentage of raw foods in our diet increases. I noticed a huge increase in energy, focus, vitality, clarity,…plus I lost weight without trying.

Once we experience what it’s like to feel good, healthy, and strong, we’re hooked!
