 Maca is my new ingredient of this week. Didn't know a thing about it but I had bought it in Aldi with the raw cacao powder last week. Look what it does for our stamina, men and women!!!

Raw Food Ingredients

What is so nice are the ingredients. Everything nutritious in its own right!

 

And so many people do not know about this stuff. I refer to for instance asking someone in Aldi if they did any natural syrups, to replace sugar. She gave me this jar of white powder made of pure chemical, highly toxic substances they've come up with to substitute as a sweetener. I was thinking of agave syrup. Discreetly, I continued looking around and found maple syrup and organic dates, raisins and figs, all with nutritious properties and all amazingly sweet.

Then I found an article on raw food to treat disease. I suddenly read that cooking food kills ALL the enzymes to start with and that is before the total demise of the food's vitamin and mineral content. It stated that eating cooked food is actually hard work on your immune system rather than a boost. The following article suggests a few foods to boost immunity, including carrots and cacao (raw chocolate).

Harmony Hall's Weekly Box Scheme For Ready Meals

One last thought on my first month of special diets catering:
I intended to offer whatever people needed, for example vegetarian, dairy free, gluten free, sugar-free, salt-free or raw but, thanks to my first clients, I've already discovered that all the above can be achieved through mastering raw food. 

What a magic way to live.
