If you’re new to raw foods you may have noticed that even though there are now hundreds, if not thousands of raw food web sites on the internet, what seems to be lacking is real basic nuts-and-bolts info about how to get going from a standing start. Only too often do books and web sites jump in at step 2 or 3 (food or equipment) before setting the context in which raw food needs to be placed, or explaining how to get going when everything about raw food is new. And what newbies want to know of course is: ‘How can I do this?’, and when they ask me, apart from recommending my own book, I genuinely struggle to find a written resource to point them to that will take them from the very first basics up (which is why my new book is going to be a life changer).
Now, even if you feel that you’re personally beyond what you’ll learn about here, this information may well be perfect to pass on to a friend or family member who is struggling to comprehend just what you’ve been getting so excited about, or who may want to hear it from someone other than you! (Don’t worry, mine are like that too!). Either way, the information that follows is well worth a read as you may just get a little boost of much-needed inspiration.
1. Understand what all the fuss is about. The concept of eating raw food isn’t new by any means, but it has gained much greater popularity during recent times owing to its unquestionable benefits on health, energy and overall vitality, as well as its ability to basically make us look and feel a whole lot better than we’ve ever done before. As old as time itself, raw food was, of course, what we ate before fire was discovered (we must have done OK on it to get that far  and more recently, thanks to the efforts of pioneering authors such as health researcher Leslie Kenton and others outside of the UK who bravely waved the flag for raw food in the 1980′s and beyond, we now find ourselves in an era where raw food is no longer seen as the domain of extreme health “fanatics” but instead merrily making its way into the mainstream media, celebrity diets, healing centers and retreats, increasing numbers of health and nutrition books, products and seminars, as well as featuring more significantly in supermarkets, health food stores and much more besides. And not a moment before time – because when you look at it up close and personal, it really does make a whole lot of sense…

The following recommendations are the best sources of food available in each category listed below. Visit Here http://bbc-food-network.blogspot.com
The key is to eat the best quality food to deliver the greatest quantity of nutrition. You literally are what you eat. Your body is continually rebuilding itself with the raw materials from the food you eat.
If you want to achieve vibrant health it is imperative that you eat good quality food. If you are trying to create better health, I do not recommend eating processed food, soft drinks, etc. Ideally, your food should be freshly prepared from the freshest and best available ingredients.
Livestock, poultry, and fish that are fed their natural diets and organically grown vegetables are more nutritious and have less of a negative effect on the environment than their counterparts. Do not assume anything when buying food or supplements. If a certain process, quality, or ingredient not explicitly listed on the label it will not have occurred or have included in a food item or product, i.e. not fed any animal by products, grass fed, etc.
Get in the habit of reading food labels. As a general rule the less ingredients on a food product the better. For example, a loaf of bread should have four basic ingredients: flour, water, salt and yeast. If you look at most loaves of bread available in grocery stores you find a very long list of ingredients that you will most likely be unfamiliar with. See bread recommendation below.
