About Me:

I came to raw foods in hope of healing. Most of my teenage/early adulthood was spent emotionally unstable and I put my body through the stress response almost daily. Before I started getting noticeably sick (fatigued, malaise, brain fog, low concentration, list goes on and on) to a point where I had to quit college and later work, I had been living off of chips, dip and beer.
After trying various diets to address the candida imbalance, I only found temporary relief. One day, while devouring every book I could find on nurtition and health at the local library, I came across a raw foods book. It immeditately clicked and have always known since that day, that this is the path I need to be on. Still trying to figure out what version of the raw diet will work best for me (after many mishaps/miseducation). I'm increasing my raw intake overtime and have developed great habits. I love a daily green juice and green smoothie and hope to be doing 100% this August/September.

I believe in love and that anything is possible. :D
