I know a recipe (vegan) for raw toothpaste too, totally organic raw, supposed to be particulary good for the gums and to get rid of and...
My name is Gina Panayi i am the author of The Raw Greek book. I run The Raw Greek e-shop bringing great raw products to the UK from Europe and around the world, we are renowned for the best raw olives from Greece.
Both of my parents are from Cyprus, but i was born and raised in London. I am very Greek in the way i look, my upbringing and customs. I have been living in Greece for the last 2 years, love brought me here. The Big Fat Greek wedding event happened in May 2008. And we now have a beautiful baby girl who we are raising the best we can in a toxic world.
I have been a raw foodist since 2004, i sometimes struggle in such a big meat eating country, but noone has been able to break me yet.

Hi Gina, I just browsed your website... love it and all the raw Mediterranean cuisine! Just curious, have you ever done elegant entertaining/catering with raw foods?
great to be able to communicate with you until I phone you up (soon) -and until we meet up with our little babies! That'll be surreal! Chris jokes that we now have a wife for Leandros!
Chat soon and give many kisses to little Eleftheria!

The tribes are gathering.. Do you want to live in a more human model of society. It has long been an idea of mine to begin a Permaculture based community, however I am reminded that community is about sharing with others, not doing it all yourself!
A gathering spot for eco-entrepreneurs to share, network, brainstorm, and showcase thier dreams and ideas! From health consultants, professional bloggers, restauranteurs, and green energy titans, all are welcome.
This group is designed solely for the purpose of sharing recipes!
Did you try something new that you just have to share?
Do you have a special recipe that you've perfected over the years?
