Diets and Wholefood cookery

Raw food is for everyone, say the authors of one of Denmark’s best-selling cookbooks, and they make a compelling case for that claim. Equally at home on the coffee table or in the kitchen, The Art of Raw Food features gorgeous four-color photography and delicious yet simple raw food recipes as well as a background on the benefits of a raw food diet.

"Rawlicious" introduces readers to a lifestyle that marries long-term health benefits and higher energy levels with delicious and simple raw recipes.

From the author of "Ani's Raw Food Kitchen" (over 45,000 copies sold) and "Ani's Raw Food Desserts," comes the go-to book for all things raw.

In Happy Vegan Food, Bettina Campolucci Bordi shares a collection of easy and delicious plant-based recipes that anyone can incorporate into their busy life.
With recipes including Hearty Buckwheat Waffles, a tasty Korean Pancake, a delicious yet quick One Pot Curry in a Hurry, and the decadent Hazelnut Bites, Bettina proves that nutritious food doesn't have to be restrictive.

Sources say that before our ancestors learned to hunt, they ate a raw diet comprised of what they could gather in the wilderness. The plant-based diet gave us everything we needed then, and it does now! Plant proteins are easier for the body to absorb than animal proteins. A plant-based diet provides 10–15% of calories from protein, a safe intake for a healthy human.

Our energy body is attached to our physical body through seven points, which we call chakras. Each chakra represents different energies, emotions and physical organs in our bodies. The root chakra, responsible for grounding, is boosted by red foods: berries, chillies, tomatoes. Green foods such as spinach, avocado and kiwis channel the heart chakra, which opens us to trust and intimacy.
