MY FIRST RAW EXPERIENCE

For about three or four years now I've been hearing alot about a raw food lifestyle where people don't cook any food over 45 deg Celsius. At first this sounded quite extreme but as I researched I found the idea of living directly off the land quite enticing. Through further investigation I found that there is a parallel universe of gourme food. Raw gourme food which I like to call rawme.

Easter 2011 I decided to start this raw food lifestyle but the recipe book I had wasn't working for me, all the recipes were too rich full of onion garlic and nuts. This was a big setback for me. So I went and saw a professional raw health expert at Uttley raw. She helped me to simplify my meal plans and added some super foods like macca, bee polen and kelp noodles.
As I continued through the month I found my self getting very light headed to the point I felt like my head was detached from my body. On the flipside my body was feeling stronger, my muscles felt like they had electricity running through them and wanted to exercise. Although my body was feeling so good I felt like I could not carry on day to day with my head in the clouds. So I ended up going back to my old way of eating everything and anything that was in front of me.
