Hippocrates said, "Let food be thy medicine". However, it is amazing how far from this we have deviated. Rather than correct the imbalance that lies at the root of the problem, we have resorted to taking medicines which further imbalance our bodies, masking the symptoms of many "dis"-eases and contributing to further degeneration of our precious cells and vital life energy.
In the documentary film "Simply Raw: Reversing Diabetes in Thirty Days", it is evident the amazing ability our bodies have to restore themselves to health and balance when nourished with the proper living foods. In the film, six insulin-dependent diabetics are fed a completely organic, raw, living-foods diet for thirty days. The film explores the physical and emotional detoxifications that occur when transitioning to this way of eating and lifestyle. In the end, all have gained more joy and clarity in their lives. The most real and tangible benefit to them, however, is that they all were insulin-free and their blood sugars had returned to normal by the end of the thirty days! Imagine all of the pain and suffering we could alleviate if the public was educated about this way of life and knew the health, freedom, and joy that it could bring!
What step can you take today to introducing more raw foods into your diet? Going raw is a process and raw foods can be introduced slowly to intiate this cleansing process. Perhaps you replace you replace your morning coffee with a green smoothie. Then you replace one meal per day with raw. As you slowly replace cooked foods with fresh, raw fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, and sprouted grains your body will clean out many of the toxins and rebuild itself day by day.
