Raw
Secrets
By Frederic Patenaude
Raw Secrets will help you live solely on the raw
vegan diet and overcome the problems you may have encountered in
doing so. If you are tired of the same, boring, repetitive
information found in nearly every other book on the subject,
then you're in for a surprise." -Frederic Patenaude
If you're into the raw-vegan diet, this book will
find its place on your shelf. Raw Secrets is vital for beginners
because it exposes all of the common pitfalls of the diet.
Frederic's first-hand experiences take you through all of the of
the myths, concerns, and major areas of this great lifestyle. Most
of the 28 chapters are short and to the point, with personal input
from Frederic. The book's forward is an introduction by Patenaude
describing his rollercoaster health. After spending years having
raw/cooked diet swings, he found it in his heart to write this
book. It's purpose: to inform others so they don't have to learn
things the hard way.
The first chapter delves into human anatomy and
our "natural" diet. It takes us through our instincts and physical
characteristics that call us to raw foods. Most of the chapters
that follow deal specifically with the diet. Some of the headings
include: "Fat," "Protein," "Detoxification," "Teeth," "Sleep,"
"Giving Up Bad Habits," and "Digestion." From Chapter 16, "Food
Combining," Patenaude says, "We should be eating one food at a
time and never mixing together anything." He continues, "With a
simple, mainly raw diet, we automatically avoid most bad food
combining." He then goes into the properties of certain foods and
how they will react when eaten with others. Important tips such as
these are extremely valuable to even experts!
The closing appendices of the book have daily menu
ideas, testimonials, and comments on certain foods. All of his
words show sympathy toward his reader because he's interested in
our well-being. For everyone new to the diet or long-time gurus,
check this book out!
