Introduction

Hi Everyone
I decided to start a blog to both document my journey of trying to improve my health and eating habits (and my children's eating habits), as well as offer tips that can help your family.
I am going to start 2009 with an experiment: 30 days of raw foods. If you're familiar with the documentary "Simply Raw-Reversing Diabetes in 30 Days " then you've seen how switching to a diet of raw foods (especially if you've been eating the Standard American Diet) can reverse disease and make a person feel better than they ever have in their life.
I have allowed myself to eat plenty of junk over the holiday season--saying "yes" to every cookie that has come my way. But I'm now paying the price for that. I feel very sluggish, borderline depressed, irritable, foggy, and exhausted most of the time. I find that I have really not enjoyed this season very much and I am curious if it has anything to do with the sugar, flour, and fat that I've crammed in my body.
So here goes...30 days of raw foods...let's see what happens!
