I promised you 9 tips to add more raw foods into your daily diet, didn’t I? So here are the 3 final tips. I hope they will help you on your journey to long-lasting raw food success!
Tip 7: Eat Your Greens
Leafy greens vegetables are a great source of plant-based protein and minerals. They are extremely rich in chlorophyll, a natural energy booster that stimulates the production of red blood cells. This process will immediately raise your energy levels when you’re feeling tired. Leafy greens will also speed up your detoxification process by helping to eliminate the build-up of harmful toxins and waste products in your body. You can add them to your favorite smoothies, soups, salads and wraps. Or how about a glass of revitalizing green juice to boost your energy?
Tip 8: Experiment with Flavors & Textures
The reason why so many diets fail to work is because they oblige you to abandon your favorite meals and snacks, and replace them with boring or tasteless alternatives. No matter how strong your determination might be, strict ‘deprivation’ diets are not sustainable in the long term. That’s why it is important to experiment with new products in order to discover your favorite flavors and textures. This will keep you motivated throughout your raw transformation, even during the toughest days of detox.
Tip 9: Celebrate Success
When you are just transitioning from a SAD (Standard American/European Diet) to a high-raw mostly vegan diet, you may feel slightly overwhelmed by everything that is happening in your body and mind. You will get more energy, feel better in your skin and lose weight. But there might also be days where you are suffering from a ‘detox cold’ or craving old comfort foods like white bread or pasta. Make it a habit to write down your successes in a diary and celebrate them with a delicious piece of raw vegan brownie, a wild night out with your friends or a relaxing day at the beach.
