My Brothers 10 day Raw food cleanse. The results are in.

Hello lovely readers!

I am so happy to be sharing this stuff with you!

A few weeks ago, my brother approached me and asked me to help him detox physically.
His goal was to feel better about himself, to lose some weight as it affected his self esteem and to have the energy he needed to be productive and have mental sharpness. Ofcourse, he came to the right sibling, when he asked me I was so excited :) and thats because I know the difference raw foods can make and I want it for everyone :). Thank you Pano for letting me share this info!

The 10 day journey was unique to him and was based on where he was at, his goals, which raw foods he likes nore than others. Eating has to be enjoyable you know, even on a cleanse ;).

His lifestyle and diet pre-cleanse was;
no consumption of fruits or vegetables (raw or cooked)
very little water.
The basis of his diet was bread, meats, dairy (a lot of cheese and milk), sugar,coffee and alchohol.
No exercise
High levels of stress

The 10 day cleanse eliminated all aminal foods and consisted of:
Salads with steamed vegetables
green smoothies and juices daily to super hydrate and flush
water
fruit
A live supplement of dehydrated grasses


I am happy to report these changes. He did all the hard work, endured detox and was patient with himself.

                                               Before:                             After:

weight                                     96.3kg                             90.3kg   - 6kg down
body measurements                                                       11cm down
blood pressure                        128/97                              112 / 77
PH level                                   5.5                                    7.00    - This is 100 times less acidic from 5.5
Blood Sugar                             4.8                                   4.3

The beauty of this way of cleansing and eating as opposed to conventional diets is that with live alkaline foods we put nutrition into the body when we eliminate the bad instead of only doing the latter. We give it what it needs to cleanse. Nature knows best.

Well done Brother, your discipline inspired me. Love you!!

I can tell you why you should eat more leafy greens.

Hi Beautiful people.

I thought Id share knowledge about this super food because its super important in creating better health. Im talking about leafy greens; kale,all types of spinach,lettuce,parsley and various herbs.

Leafy greens in their raw state are a complete food, loaded with Iron, vitamins,calcium,magnesium and potassium. These are all the alkaline minerals that our body needs. Greens are in fact the best source of alkaline minerals in the world, next to sea vegetables.

Chorophyll is what gives leaft greens their colour. A molecule of Chlorophyll is almost identical in form and composition to a molecule of human blood, giving our blood exactly what it needs - natures blood transfusion. This is so vital because the health of our blood determines the health of our organs.

The chlorophyll also shows their rich content of antioxidants. Antioxidants protect the plant cells from free radicals that are generated by sun rays. Eating raw greens means that this benefit becomes your benefit from the inside out, and it shows!

Also, an abundance of raw greens in your diet reduces unwanted cravings of salt and fatty foods.

I have noticed my own skin improve from making this one dietary change alone because Leafy greens are filled with beta-carotene, essential for renewing skin cells, re-building skin and giving you a clear glowing complexion, healthy looking hair and nails.

There are a variety of ways that you could incorporate more into your life;
add raw spinach,parsley and herbs to your salads
use swiss chard to make wraps filled with fruit. the combination is delicious
make green smoothies and juices daily

Experiement, explore and make the change in ways that are best for you.
To your health and hapiness

Love Evagelia
