How To Stay Raw In Your Community?

JapaneseGarden_JJenningsRaw foodism is a style of life in which you represent strength and health in your being. It’s well known that some people oppose strength which dominates and does not resonate with their own life styles.

Being a raw foodist is quite a new concept in our society, more or less depending on the country. There are times when such eating habits create discomfort being with your loved-ones. At the end it is time sharing with those people you care that matters and outstands most of the principles you have.

It does not mean that you have to give up on health because of somebody’s attitude but in contrast encourage and become an inspiring example for people you love. You never know, it might change their lives at some point and lead to someone else’s cure. It is a chain – chain of love and care.

Below are some tips I came up with along my journey on how to live raw life and still be happy and relaxed among diverse attitudes.

  • Most of the time you have a chance to eat what you want. Occasions with your family and friends when you cannot stay raw usually take only a small portion of your time in most cases. This means staying up to 70% raw is very attainable and way better than nothing.
  • Don’t be pushy, stubborn, and in an aggressive mood towards the standard diet of people who are next to you. Be friendly and be an example of a healthy lifestyle.
  • If you are better of eating cooked meal (for your own life safety :) , make a wise choice among the cooked foods and eat a little portion of it. The idea is to spend time with your beloved ones rather than focus on foods.
  • You will probably have a choice of salads, steamed veggies, so try to stay vegan and avoid fried oils/fats. When you are back home, have a green smoothie if you feel misbalanced.
  • Vibrant Health with Delicious Green Smoothies

  • Be right back on the track the next day (I usually start with a nice exercise routine and follow with green smoothie in a while)
  • Share your knowledge of nutrition’s and medicinal benefits of live foods, do not be pushy. Some people just have different priorities in life and they are excellent experts in something else and you can learn from them.
  • Be respectful on others’ choices
  • If you dine outside, do not mix sugar and fats, fruits and cooked foods if possible, your body didn’t get used to such shakes. If your meal is oily, sprinkle with fresh lemon juice.
  • During the evening do not stress on the fact that you do not eat some particular food, say you are not a fan of that or you are not hungry
  • Notice that who eat differently because of their habits, they are not targeted by the public just because they got used to that person’s style. So relax and just firmly say that you don’t like this or that.

Take it easy!!! And everyone will be amazed by your energy and health in a while.
