Hi friends,

Ok so I just read the previous post on going raw. I have been juicing a little bit this week...but honestly speaking, I have no idea what Im doing. I have no idea even on how to go raw. Today we are BBQ' ing at my home and I cannot wait to indulge in some BBQ chicken and potatoe salad.

And to think Im going raw next....how do i go from my normal eating sandwiches,cereals,chicken,all the stuff we people love. To RAW?

If anyone has any pointers of advice for starters please let me know. Greatly appriciate it. Ive been loving this guy here on youtube

it helps to start by adding more and more raw greens and fruits to every meal. Wen you make pastas and stuff , add gradually less cooked down ingredients and more raw veg. What helped me was to cut my salt .this makes other natural tastes and smells possible to appreciate . Before raw , a tomato tasted bland ,now i can taste the booming flavors and natural salts in it . Weird ! Edge meats off the plate by adding tons of other stuff .Soaked nuts,seeds, sprouted beans and mushroom are good to add to any meat ,slowly add more .
Great advice i got to start with a green smoothie a day .
