raw foods: How does it work?|||Yes, I have, and personally i found it great. I was on the raw food diet for three months last year. My skin cleared up, i had a lot of energy, i felt great! ( I had to give it up because i visited Europe for the summer, and i had to eat what i got). I still do it from time to time, sometimes i go for days or weeks without eating anything cooked, however, my boyfriend loves restaurants, so i always end up breaking it somehow. Here is a link to a great site http://www.beautifulonraw.com/ This lady has been on the diet for over 20 years! She looks amazing for over 40. I met her in person; not a wrinkle or blemish anywhere!|||the raw food real world cookbook is a great book that has really good recipes that are all raw. The food has very good but this kind of lifestyle is not easy and takes time to convert. here is a link to the book and the woman who wrote the book has a raw restaurant in NY here are the links http://www.purefoodandwine.com/ http://www.amazon.com/Raw-Food-Real-Worl鈥?/a>|||I'm not sure if you're asking for personal opinion or not, but I do not find it very appetizing. I am in transition into becoming a Vegetarian and we have a Raw Foods bar in our town. Some foods are edible, while others... well, I have difficulty with. Their rule of thumb is not to heat anything past the maximum temperature that the sun would naturally warm it to. Somewhere between 110 and 115 degrees. Good luck!
