Format:Paperback
I bought this book based on the reviews, but sadly I was very disappointed. 192 page book has only 8 pictures, it looks very plain. Recipes are interesting but most of them requires different super foods, I am very new to the raw food diet and can't afford to buy everything in one go, so this book doesn't inspire me at all. Maybe in few years but not now! I prefer Jennifer Cornbleet Raw Food Made Easy much more; it's simple and easy to follow.

a vegan Raw Brownie recipe, who wants anything else?
4 Jan 2008
Format:Paperback
Yes, this book includes a Raw Food Brownie recipe. The texture is variable, depending on your kitchen equipment, and the taste isn't precisely right, but its DARN good. To be truthful, i bought this book for the brownie recipe.
This book contains basic information you will need to start your raw food life, including the basics of sprouting, soaking, making nut milks, and so on. It includes most of the information from her other book "Eating in the Raw" in a condensed form. It also has far more recipes, and fewer testimonials and "how i got here" stories.
some of her recipes call for a food dehydrator, or serious prep time (a common problem with the higher end Raw food recipes) but there are many items in this book that can be made with no equipment of note, or a blender alone.
The Juices and smoothies section is excellent, if basic for someone who is experienced in Raw Food living. The recipes are clear and do not assume a great deal of expert knowledge. Most of the main course type recipes are for items that replicate cooked foods, like mock lasagna, and this is true of her desert recipes as well.
The book has an extraordinarily high number of deserts and mock "cooked" meals that are still within the capabilities of a typical raw food beginner, and may be especially helpful to someone trying to make dishes that won't scare off the more conventional eaters in a family.

Carol practices what she preaches
18 Jan 2008
Format:Paperback
Carol Alt's first book, Eating In The Raw, was my first real introduction to the world of raw foods. As a life long sufferer of IBS, I was always looking for dietary information that might help to ease my symptoms. The raw diet did just that for me.
After having such a significant turn around in my health, I was interviewed by my local paper and later, was contacted by Carol's writer, David Roth, and asked to share my story in The Raw 50. Working with Carol was a marvelous experience. The exposure to her left me with inspiration, as she truly practices what she preaches. Her knowledge and longevity in this lifestyle is something you can 't argue. Her skin, hair, eyes and aura are radiant, and at 48 years old....she is amazing.
No, I don't eat raw meat or dairy. I follow a high raw, vegan diet and I live free of irritable bowel syndrome. I have found the majority of the recipes in the Raw 50 to be a wonderful and delicious addition to my diet. Just like anything else, take what works for you and discard the rest. I fully recommend this book to anyone interested in incorporating more raw into their diet.

The RAW 50 gave me a lot of information on why to eat raw. Even thou Carol says that you don't have to eat raw 100% of the time, I can't image eating any other way! I am always on the run, so I invested in a food dehydrator, visit my local farmers market once a week and take two hours on a Sunday to prepare most of Carols burgers, quiches, meatloaf and snacks for the week. I feel extremely educated with all the information that Carol provided. Who knew about Coconut Oil and how healthly it really is! Thanx for a great book!
