Guest guest Posted February 10, 2009 Report Share Posted February 10, 2009 Hi All, I am brand new to raw food - just really researching it right now. I was wondering - does it really have the profound effect on a person's appearance as it seems to? Did you all notice a big change in your face in terms of aging when you switched over? Thanks!

Guest guest Posted February 10, 2009 Report Share Posted February 10, 2009 Julie When I first started on the Raw diet, one of the first confirmations of its benefits, besides the weight loss, was that others noticed my skin texture. It was different. It was, for lack of a better description, more youthful. There was a kind of glow. I even began to notice a difference but it took a while before I realized what it was. My skin color began to become more even as well as the texture and it still continues to improve even now several years later.

Guest guest Posted February 10, 2009 Report Share Posted February 10, 2009 Julie, I can see a big difference in my skin. I was looking at pictures of my mom when she was younger and she looked older in her early 40's than I do now at almost 57. With raw foods, you are nourishing and hydrating your body and your skin from the inside out, not just slapping cosmetics on the outside. Check out books by Tanya Zavasta and also her website: www.beautifulonraw.com. I've heard her speak and she is really amazing and very funny. She looks as good in person as in her pictures and she is in her 50's.

Guest guest Posted February 14, 2009 Report Share Posted February 14, 2009 Hi Julie, I just ran across your and the answer for me was a huge Yes! Not only did I notice a huge difference in my completion, but also in my hair. I have thin, fine hair that had always felt rough (for lack of a better word), but once I began raw it became extremely soft and flowing. And it had body which it had never had before. Just my 2 cents worth. Alice MacKenzie , Julie Johnson <jjsillycanuck wrote: > > Hi All, > > I am brand new to raw food - just really researching it right now.

Guest guest Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 Hello, I am not sure anyone responded to this, but yes, I saw a difference in my face. Most especially after I did a 9 week liver cleanse. The health of the liver affects the health of the skin. Not only did my skin get tighter, it was softer than EVER before. Even my son, who was about 9 or 10 at the time touched my arm and said, " Wow mommy, your skin is soft! " I have seen it in other raw food people, too.

Guest guest Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 What kind of 9 week liver cleanse did you do? Very curious to know.

Guest guest Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 What kind of 9 week liver cleanse did you do? Very curious to know. Thanks, Vanessa ** Hello - this ended up in my junk mail, otherwise I would have answered earlier. I did the Arise and Shine 9 week Liver Cleanse. It's very important to do some sort of an intestinal cleanse first, because you need to make sure the gunk from your liver has a clear evacuation route. It's really nasty stuff. If you choose to do the Arise and Shine liver cleanse then you should purchase the little pamphlet they have to go along with it. I think it's like $3, so not a big purchase. Also, there should be a break of a month or so between cleanses. The liver cleanse is pretty intense, not only does it have alot of toxins if you've eaten SAD all your life, but it also is the organ connected to Anger. If you continue on a raw food diet, your body and all organs will detox eventually, so it's not necessary to go on a cleanse. It's definately a personal choice.

I just returned from an scientific aromatherapy conf. where someone mentioned the " Arise and Shine " to me, which I knew of many years ago, when I mentioned that I was going to become a more attune to my raw food diet, and begin to learn som new recipes, as well. I didn't really feel the draw to this product, in that I do feel that when I was very strict with my raw foodness, I was able to cleanse very deeply. Thanks for the post!
