Raw Food Research Website

In a effort to increase fruits and veggies in my diet, I have been researching a raw diet. I do believe eating raw is an excellent, and for most people, the most healthiest diet, if you can stick with it. My goal is to eat 70% raw on days when I can. I am trying to accomplish this by eating breakfast and lunch raw. But I am flexible and when out will eat what people serve me or what is available. I may refine that later, but this is my first goal. My next long term goal would be to eat one day a week 100% raw. But I am not there yet. I have found that smoothies containing green leafy vegetables (spinach, kale, beet greens, parsley, collards, etc.) a great way to increase veggie and fruit intake and get in the minimum amounts (9 or more servings a day!) I want in my diet.

I definitely don't agree with everything or everyone on the list. I particularly like "The Renegade Health Show" because they are real (not that the others aren't) and balance approach to the raw food movement. They give lots of info for free and have a daily Monday to Friday show.
