The Raw Secrets: The Raw Food Diet in the Real World, 3rd Edition

Awesome very insightful book if you are just getting into the raw foods diet. Save yourself a lot of trial and error and listen to Frederick's unbiased reasoning to guide you to a better health. Many Raw and vegan diets will lead you to declining health as Frederick explains and experienced first hand. Save yourself the trouble and purchase this book! As a muscular, athletic, male I was just looking for more energy and better health. Using the info I found in this book I have lowered my fat content while retaining muscle and look better than ever! I'm also enjoying more energy and a much clearer state of mind!In conjunction with the RAW Vegetables and Fruit check out Holy Basil, Ashwaganda, and drinking Alkaline Kangen Water.

Raw Secretes examines the difference between a high fat gourmet style of raw food diet and a more simple low fat raw food diet. Through Frederic's own experience and research, he provides the reader the common mistakes found in the raw food lifestyle. The book is helpful to people interested in a more fruitarian way of eating. After reading Raw Secrets, I am more encouraged to try the low fat version of the raw food diet. Raw Secrets, however, lacks a list of essential daily recipes, so a low fat raw recipe guide book would make a useful companion to this book.

This book has exceptional information, as do all of Frederic's publications. I have purchased several of his products and am happy with most of them, but the one underlying complaint I have on all of them is that he does not appear to be concerned with the finished product. They ALL contain so many typos, misspellings, etc, that it is disconcerting. He has admitted that he is lazy. It shows.

This book needs more recognition! It is truthful and powerful! It dives even deeper into the raw food diet, into a place that not many raw foodists are lucky enough to discover. Before I read this book, every day was a struggle on the raw food diet, constant cravings, irritable moods, lethargic attitude. As soon as I adjusted my eating habits, I became alive and free again as I once was when I first started eating raw.

This book is extremely helpful for any person that is unsure about raw food choices in the raw food world. He speaks of the trials he has gone through so you can be wary and avoid them. I am glad that he admits that going 100% raw is not this magical cure-all for everybody. He explains that it can be used as a tool to get you healthy if you use it carefully.

I found this book packed with information--all backed up with scientific research and personal author experience. If you're new to raw foods or just curious about raw foods or a seasoned raw fooder this book will be helpful to anyone. I found it a good addition to my collection of raw food books.

Good Information..Definately helped with weight loss!

Very good source of information on food in general, but especially for those committed to going raw.

Wer sich für dieses Thema interessiert, ist mit diesem Buch gut beraten. Patenaude schreibt viel über seine eigenen Erfahrungen, gibt Tips wie einem die Übergangszeit und auch die Zeit danach leichter fällt. Und damit man die Fehler die er selbst gemacht hatte und von denen er auch von anderen weiß, nicht begeht. Mir persönlich bringt es viel, so dass ich es jetzt ein zweites Mal lese.

Have 10 months of practice in this diet and was happy to find several answers to questions I was looking for.

A really good and sensible approach on the subjext of raw food.
