Book Description

Publication Date: 17 Nov 2003
Medical researchers have found that a high-fat, high-sugar diet, combined with environmental pollutants and stress, can lead to a buildup of toxins in the body collectively known as chronic degenerative disease. Here holistic physician Gabriel Cousens addresses the dangers of foods that have been genetically modified, treated with pesticides, microwaved, and irradiated—and presents an alternative diet of whole, natural, organic, and raw foods that can reverse chronic disease and restore vitality.

Both a guide to natural health and a cookbook, Rainbow Green Live-Food Cuisine features over 250 revolutionary vegan recipes from chefs at the Tree of Life Cafe, from Buttery Butternut Porridge to Raw-violis to Carob Coconut Cream Eclairs. Combining modern research on metabolism, ecological consciousness, and a rainbow of live foods, Dr. Cousens dishes up comprehensive, practical, and delectable solutions to the woes of the Western diet.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bit of a Bible 22 July 2009
By Ruth B
Format:Paperback
This is an astonishing book. There are two main parts. The first part is dense science about how food affects the body with interesting photos illustrating his points. This part is well explained, if a little overwhelming. I've approached it several times. I think that it takes an amount of re-thinking to take in the points. No bad thing. It's a compelling point of view.
However, you do not need to read the first part in order to follow the recipes. If you are new to the concept of vegan, raw food eating, then you may be surprised that there are ways to make 'breads' and 'mylks' (milk made from nuts, for example). The recipes may inspire you to consider purchasing a de-hydrator. You may be interested to know that 'raw' does not necessarily mean 'cold' - it's all to do with the temperature you 'cook' it at. Also, lots of soups,dips, patties, salads and puds. It's true that many of the ingredients can be hard to source. It would be worthwhile to try one recipe a week, say. It's a lot to take in, at least for me.
The food is really delicious! It really surprised me that one can eat so well, raw and vegan. This book is a real eye-opener. It was my first book on raw food recipes and it rocked my world.

4.0 out of 5 stars Rainbow Green Live-Food Cuisine 16 May 2008
By Tami Brady TOP 500 REVIEWER
Format:Paperback
Like a lot of people, I am gradually coming to the realization that what I put into my body affects the way my mind and body are able to function. Not all food is created equal and counting calories or carbs does very little good if I'm not giving my body the nutrition it needs. Slowly, I am learning that my body, mind, and spirit prefer whole foods to fast food and empty calories.

Rainbow Green Live- Food Cuisine introduces the concept of live-food. This plan is strictly vegan and promotes the usage of fresh raw foods whenever possible. For most people, these recipes will be a radical change from what they eat at present. Nonetheless, they will provide a place to start.

I had a few personal challenges while trying these recipes. A large portion of the foods contained coconut, which I am allergic to, so I had to make some adjustments. Moreover, many of the dishes contained ingredients that were unavailable in my area, so I again had to make substitutions.

5.0 out of 5 stars Inspiring Book 18 Jun 2011
By Tirzah
Format:Paperback
I bought this book after borrowing ' Conscious Eating' by Gabriel Cousens from the library. I think reading Conscious Eating first was helpful in understanding this book as it contains much more detailed explanations of the physiology of the body and raw food.
I have tried several of the recipes from this book and they are delicious. I have not yet used a dehydrator which would produce crispbreads and crunchies and thereby add different textures to the raw food diet.
I have not been able to source coconut pulp which appears in many of the recipes or indeed various other ingredients.That said however this is an inspiring book.
I do have one major grumble - Gabriel Cousens if you ever read this - Florence Nightingale is not noted for her work in the American Civil War!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book 14 Aug 2010
By Trevor, Ireland
Format:Paperback
Great Book, Lots of work involved in living like this but the idea's are sound.
I do think food becomes a full time job but maybe it should be if we are to live disease free.
Lots of equipment involved too. The information in this book is fantastic not just the food.
For what the book cost I think its great value. I doubt you would regret it.
