I was at a breaking point … and my body was telling me that I needed to change. Now. I decided to “go raw” cold turkey, and after experiencing the life-altering benefits within the first week, I haven’t looked back since. Becoming a raw foodist not only saved my life, but it has also led me to discover my true passion—helping other people better understand their bodies and minds and improve their own health and quality of life. For the first time in years I was eating sufficient amounts of food and, more importantly, the right kinds. It took a few months to nourish my body back fully, but over time I began to feel vibrant again, and this reflected in every area of my life—physical, mental, professional, and emotional. I no longer had sinus infections or trouble falling asleep or waking up. My headaches were gone, along with my addiction to antacid pills. In short, my body started to heal itself and function like a well-oiled machine. From close friends to new acquaintances, people around me took notice and commented on how radiant and healthy I looked. I may have been a top model, but I had never heard these sorts of compliments before. And it felt great. (en) |
