“The Biggest Raw Food Controversies Finally Exposed and Debunked…. Discover How to Increase Energy, Strengthen Digestion and Avoid Dangerous Deficiencies” Frederic Patenaude decided to become a raw-foodist in 1996, but after just two years on the diet, his health was falling apart. He thought he was on the best diet in the world, but a mysterious ailment struck him and left him crippled in bed for a month. Since that dreadful experience, Frederic kept searching for the ideal diet. After 14 years, he's ready to reveal it all and expose some of the most well-kept secrets of the raw-food movement that other raw-food leaders don’t want you to know. Raw Food Controversies demolishes common raw-food myths and establishes useful guidelines for healthy eating. In this book, the author describes his tumultuous years of trial and error with the raw food diet, and the multiple health problems caused by eating raw the wrong way, while providing useful lessons he's learned along the way.

Surprisingly, many of these parents are prominent raw foodists,

All of my friends were convinced that I would run out of opportunities within a few months and quickly come back home. However, I saw this trip as something more. I was leaving Quebec, and I didn’t intend on coming back. I had no idea where in the world I would end up, but I knew going to San Diego was the first step. I didn’t bring many belongings with me— just a few clothes, a

An Inexact Science There is no consensus in the raw food movement because there is no real raw food science to speak of.
