Answers to Almost Every Raw Food Controversy!Contrary to the hype of other raw-food books, I don’t falsely claim that my raw food story has always been a success story. When people tell you that raw-foods changed their lives for the better, they are often either very new to it, or often conveniently forget to mention their years of struggle.

The truth is that most raw-food experts are not 100% raw and many of them are not even vegan, and they remain vague and secretive about the reasons behind their choices.

I’ve worked behind the scenes and I can tell you why that is. In my book, I hold no secret from you and tell you things the way they are, not the way I wish they had been!The book Raw Food Controversies features my entire story, spanning over 14 years of experience, but focusing on my early years of struggle with raw-foodism.

The book reads like a novel and everyone who has read it says it’s a page-turner. Throughout the book you’ll find several informative sidebars that will debunk many of the raw food controversies in more detail.

I may not have all the answers, but most of the main raw-food controversies that are of interest to you will be addressed in the book and accompanying DVD, including:The Fruit Controversy!This is a common controversy, but an important one.

Some people say it’s okay to eat 10 to 30 bananas a day, while others claim we should eat no fruit at all and survive on a diet of greens and sprouts.

In Raw Food Controversies, I dispel once and for all the myth that fruit is bad for you, addressing important concerns such as:

• How to stabilize your blood sugar on a raw food diet, even if you eat a lot of fruit!

• Should we worry about the high-fructose content of certain fruits?

• Is it possible to gain weight eating too much fruit, when fruit sugar is converted into fat by the liver?

• And more!Fat Controversy!Next to fruit, the fat controversy is also an important source of confusion in the raw-food world.

In Raw Food Controversies, you will discover:

• Is it possible to eat too little fat? Why our bodies need a certain amount of fat for vital processes like producing hormones, and how to make sure to get enough of those important fats.

• Why even “good” fats such as those in avocados and nuts can be bad in large amounts, and how to find the perfect balance.

• What every vegan should know about omega 3 fatty acids and important fats such as DHA, that are critically important for brain function. Discover what are the best plant sources of these fatty acids.

• And more!The All-Raw vs. Cooked Controversy!Another big controversy is whether a 100% raw-food diet is necessary for health or eating some selected cooked foods can be harmless or even beneficial.

In the Raw Food Controversies, I finally bring light to this important issue by presenting both sides of the story.

• Discover that sometimes one size doesn’t always fit all.

• The difference between a 100% raw food diet and a mostly raw diet: how each approach has its advantages and disadvantages and how to decide which one is best for you.

• Find out what makes the most difference in health and longevity. Useful facts you should know about what really makes the raw-food diet work, so you don’t focus your attention on things that are a complete waste of time.

The Dental Health Controversy!I developed almost 40 cavities in my first few years on the raw food diet, and my experience is not an isolated one.

The truth is out there: Raw-foodists on average DO have more dental problems than the rest of the population. Don’t let other raw-food gurus convince you of the contrary… your health may suffer!

In Raw Food Controversies, you will discover:

• How fruit can rot your teeth! I currently eat a lot of fruit and have zero dental problems, but it wasn’t this way until I learned these important lessons.

• Exactly what you need to know to avoid long-term dental problems on the raw food diet.

• Why raw foods can cause dental erosion, and how I can eat large amounts of pineapple without problems, following a few simple techniques.

• How to ensure that you have strong bones, without bone loss or weak teeth.

The Long-Term Health and Deficiency Controversy!

I know, I know, we see lots of vegans and raw foodists who really don’t look all that healthy. Some people think that the raw food diet might be a good cleansing diet for the short term, but might not work for everyone long term.

What is the truth?In Raw Food Controversies, you will discover:

• How a raw food diet can supply nutrients such as DHA and B12 that vegans often are lacking.

• Why B12 deficiencies are more widely spread than is commonly believed, and how to recognize the first symptoms of a B12 deficiencies.

• How to feel 100% sure that you’re giving your body everything that it needs.

• How to make sure some ten or so years down the road that you didn’t overlook a very important aspect and thereby irreparably jeopardize your health.

The Animal Food Controversy!In my years of trial and error with the raw food diet, there are times I seriously doubted the validity of the vegan diet. On several occasions, I went back to eating animal products such as eggs, dairy products, fish and even meat.

In Raw Food Controversies, you will discover what I learned through these experiences:

• How a vegan diet can be healthy as long as you pay attention to these essential factors.

• The most common mistake vegans make that hurt their long-term health.

• The only circumstance where eating some animal foods may be useful to some people.

• Why most animal foods are not even a reliable source of vitamin B12.

• And more!The Calories Controversy!Some raw-foodists claim they can literally live on only a few hundred calories a day, while others say that you can eat all you want and not gain weight.

In the Raw Food Controversies, you will discover:

• Why calories actually still matter, and how mastering calories is an important key to succeeding on the raw food diet.

• How many calories the average man and woman should eat on a daily diet, and why often stuffing yourself with fruit is not always the answer.

• Why some people who claim to eat only a few hundred calories a day on the raw food diet are not telling the whole story (and some shocking “behind the scenes” stories about famous raw-foodists I met).

• My meeting with a breatharian: The two people I met who claimed they could live on air and wrote books about it, and what they really ate to survive.

The Gurus Controversy!You’ve heard the rumors! Some important raw-foodists are no longer raw or vegan anymore!If you want to know both the extent of the lies how many raw foodists are actually practicing what they preach, you should read The Raw Food Controversies. Here are some topics that are covered:

• What shocked me when I first met real-life raw-foodists and discovered that many of them lived a life that was significantly different than what they advertised.

• How raw food gurus literally make stuff up and promote it as truth in their books, without having any proof whatsoever to back it up.

• Why some raw-foodists are afraid to tell you what they eat in a typical week, hiding under the presence that “their diet is constantly changing.”

• Exactly what I eat in a typical week, including what I cheat on and why.

The Proof Controversy!

Every raw food enthusiast claims their ideas are scientific and they proclaim themselves experts in the field just like that on the merit of eating raw for more than a few months… yet their scientific evidence is lacking.

I have over 80 scientific references from peer-reviewed reputable science journals in the Raw Food Controversies.

In some cases, I bring you some ideas that come from my own experience and while I don’t have any scientific references to back it up, at least you will know which ones those are and can make up your own mind.
