Answer 1

a lifestyle promoting the consumption of uncooked, unprocessed, and often organic foods \

NO FACES – no food that was a face or comes from a being with a face, so evolve away from chicken, fish, meat, or eggs, cheese, milk, yogurt, icecream, etc.; switch to seed and nut milks and yogurts;

  

NO WHITES or WARM oils – never cook with oil, use only cold-pressed unheated oils, avoid snacks with cooked fats like hydrogenated oil; and say No to the Whites – white sugar, white rice, white pasta, white flour, cakes, cookies, chips, chocolate, etc. – use the dehydrator here to make your own snack foods;

  

GREENS by the ton – blend greens, juice greens, chew on greens, take wholefood green powders like organic spirulina or dried grass juice; you can *never* overdose on greens; they will clean and rebuild you faster than any other food – use the Sprouter here for fresh living greens daily;  

  

WHOLE foods only – eat fresh plant foods. Avoid food from machines – frozen, boxed, canned and bottled – eat it sparingly, even if it looks whole, like frozen vegetables;

Answer 2

Basically you eat raw fruits and veggies as well as seeds and nuts and oils (all in their raw form of course.)  You would be amazed at the variety of foods that you can eat.  You can also eat the foods in their dehydrated state so that it changes the texture of the food but doesn't kill the live enzymes.  There are lots of raw food books and cookbooks that you can read to get an idea of the stuff that you can eat.  Rawvolution is a great cookbook by Matt Amsden with lots of pictures.  He has a website too. ( rawvolution.com)  It is definitely not just vegetables!  Try a raw food restaurant in your area to really see some of the gourmet choices that are available.  Also, Whole Foods Market has lots of raw cereals and other dehydrated products that are delicious.  Try it!  You will be amazed at the variety and how great you will feel.
