be careful with raw food
Yes raw foods can work miracles.
I was a strict raw vegan for over 2 years.
Keep in mind that in the beginning you will be under a spell in which you believe only raw food is proper food.
I ended up completely ruining my digestion and it has taken me 10 years go recover. Yes, 10 years.
Raw vegan works for short periods. But I would restrict it to a month or two tops.
If you want to remain raw then I recommend raw meats / fish in addition to veggies.
There is a small proportion of the population who do OK on a raw food diet long term. But your chance is pretty slim, and the risk is serious health problems. I have known many many people who have suffered negative health from remaining on raw foods long term.
You can heal your body but find a balance that includes enough protein. I find I do best with cooked seafood and salads and some meat. People tell me all the time I look 25 even though I am 32. I hang out with people who are 20 years old all the time and when I tell them my age they are always shocked....
