Editorial Review: Product Description: Ten years ago, Carol Alt was feeling bad. Really bad. She had chronic headaches, sinusitis, and stomach ailments; she was tired and listless. And then Carol started eating raw—and changed her life. Eating in the Raw begins with her story and then presents practical, how-to information on everything you need to know about the exciting movement that’s been embraced by Demi Moore, Pierce Brosnan, Sting, Edward Norton, and legions of other health-minded people. You’ll learn: •What exactly raw food is—and isn’t—and how to integrate it into your diet •How to avoid the all-or-nothing pitfall: you can eat some cooked foods, you can eat some foods partially cooked, and you don’t have to deprive yourself •Why raw food is not just for vegetarians or vegans—Carol eats meat, and so can you •The differences between cooked and raw vitamins, minerals, and enzymes, and what they mean for you •An ease-in approach to eating raw, and how to eat raw in restaurants In addition, Carol answers frequently asked questions and offers forty simple recipes for every meal, from light dishes such as Gazpacho and Lentil Salad to entrees including Tuna Tartare and Spaghetti al Pesto and even desserts like Pumpkin Pie and Apple Tart with Crème Anglaise—rounding out a thorough, accessible, and eminently compelling case why in the raw is the best way to eat.

![]() Rating: - Great for the beginner or who need some motivatingThis is a GREAT book for those just starting to eat raw or who want to learn about it. I've read about the raw diet for years so there wasn't anything new here...but I thought Carol was very motivating and explained things very well. She makes you feel like she's just like you and that helps you feel like you can do this too! I think some of her suggestions are better suited for people that have alot of money to spend on food or who live in big cities where you can find a big supply of good raw ... Read More Rating: - A+ for any new raw foodistsThis book was just what I needed to explore raw foodism. Carol Alt gave very direct ideas and opinions on her own venture into raw foods as well as some pretty decent recipes, tips and tricks for preparing raw foods. I count this book as a must have for anyone that is interested in this lifestyle. Rating: - Lots of good information for the beginnerThe most interesting parts of this book are Carol's own story and her overall tips for the beginner in raw food. As a beginner myself I appreciated her advice to try a little at a time inserting raw into your diet in lieu of worrying about switching over altogether all at once. The recipes were ok, but I live in a pretty remote location - so her general advice was of more use to me than the actual recipes. But if you live in an urban area you should have no problem at all rounding up these ingredients, ... Read More Rating: - Carol Alt gives direction to this "eating raw" lifestyle change!Carol does a great job of giving variety to the "eating raw" world with all her recipes and tips. It's not an easy lifestyle change to implement but with her help it's going more smoothly. Rating: - not a bad starting placeFirst of all, i must note that Carol Alt is one of the rare Raw Food advocates who also eats a small quantity of Raw fish,Meat and Dairy. None of the recipes include this, but it is a rarity in the raw food world, so i felt it needed to be mentioned. The vast majority of this book is explanations of what raw food can do in your diet, how much it helped her, and other testimonials. Unlike many other "testimonial: books, this is actually a fun read. The basics of how to start living a raw lifestyle are ... Read More
