Healthful Raw Foods

Feeling Vibrant & Alive on a Raw Food Diet

Vibrant and alive is what my friends notice about me lately. Two months ago dear friend introduced me to the concept of Raw Foods.
I had already been modifying my diet, and specially after a diagnosis of melanoma on a mole, and then surgery. I carefully listened to his experience and knowledge, and felt a readiness to immerse myself in this Raw Food Diet.

I purchased a raw foods recipe book, cleaned my refrigerator of what I no longer was going to eat, and began my journey of experimenting with delicious recipes. I was totally blown away how tasty, delicious, and fast it was to make these...no cooking time involved! I am still carefully planning my meals to receive all the necessary nutrients that the body requires for optimum energy.

I'm finding that I can't rush myself, but feel so excited because the benefits have shown up rapidly. I have been feeling amazing energy level, lighter, and as a bonus have lost some weight. My skin is no longer dry, it just looks radiant. My digestion and elimination are so much better. I have also noticed having less inflammation on hands, as well as more salivation due to more hydration in the digestive tract.

Daily exercise, conscious breathing have also been very important. Making me feel more toned muscles, flexibility, as well as mental clarity and higher energy level. Reducing and providing overall balance of chemistry released from stress.

Happy mind = Happy body!!!

We all definitely have to make some lifestyle changes to a more natural and healthier one. My time has finally come up to once again go back to basics, to this healthier and vibrant way of living with healthier choices for optimum health.

I am committed to "consciously practice" a Healthful Living Lifestyle that for so long I did not follow through completely because of environmental and social influence. I guess where there is a will or need, there is a way. I found my way. Hope you find yours too, or on your way there!!!

I will continue to share with you my findings and benefits of this Raw Food Diet, and hope that in some small way it may benefit and inspire you as well towards your own healthier lifestyle.

To your health,
Madelin
