Not a quick diet or weight-loss plan (although this is apparently a side benefit). Following the likes of Woody Harrelson, Demi Moore and other proponents of the Raw Food diet.
Living Foods as they are preferred to be called (makes you think you are less like a rabbit or cow) and made up of foods that have not been cooked. The idea is that the living enzymes found naturally in raw foods assist in the digestive process. Without these enzymes (as in cooked foods) our bodies have to produce these enzymes and this takes a lot of energy.
Boundless energy, less sleep, clear thinking, better skin, shiny hair, no more colds or flu symptoms. are all the by-products of Living Foods according to Paul Benhaim.
Sounds easy- save yourself all that washing up, energy for your cooker, throw away your toaster and even your kettle. What favourite dish will you be missing? Apparently none.
Living foods are not carrots and celery sticks, but Thai Curry, Butternut Noodles, Lasagna, Spaghetti, Chocolate Cakes and soups are all on the menu board! Herbs and spices take on a whole new taste when used raw with Pauls expert advice and experience at hand.
Move over Jamie Oliver.
