As I type this I am drinking my new morning addiction, a smoothie made of fruit.  Today I used Almond Milk as the base instead of water, 1 banana, 2 small apples, 2 large strawberries and 1 pear.  Absolutely yummy!

This is Day 11 for me of eating raw.

I mostly eat fruit in the morning and for lunch, and then go heavy on the veggies in the afternoon and evening.  I am also eating raw nuts and seeds.  That’s it.  Fruits, veggies, nuts and seeds.

Now I know there are tons of recipes out there, but I like to keep it simple.  It doesn’t get much easier than chopping some fruit and tossing it into a blender.  I can make a smoothie, and rinse it out in 2-3 minutes.  That includes the time to rinse off the fruit and/or vegetables too.

My body has already gone through a LOT of changes.   I am keeping a journal of the events and I have debated about putting it online on this site, but I am considering launching a new blog that is dedicated solely to health.  What do you guys think?

So here I am going it alone in my house, eating raw, while I still have to prepare cooked foods for my family and smell the wonderful cooked foods my wife makes, and the next thing I know I have my kids drinking green smoothies each day when they get home from school.

Now that my wife can see how much energy I and how I am bouncing of the walls and feeling great…   Today, on day 11 of me being raw, she tells me that she has decided to go 100% raw with me.  Wooo hooo..

Here is a video that I think tells you EXACTLY why I am feeling so darn great.

Watch this video:

Dr Joel Fuhrman will surprise you with the REAL causes of most disease and how easy it is to insure that you NEVER GET ILL AGAIN.

I think it is more than just a coincidence that a little over one week into eating 100% raw that this video comes out and is all over the web.

I find this very inspiring and uplifting and it makes me believe that I am in sync with the universe and my spiritual self.  It’s a wink from the universe…  a synchronicity.

Wishing you the very best in life,
