The Reluctant Raw Foodist

Are you what you eat?

"I used to be a' foodie' and now I am a "foodist'"

Welcome to my health and wellbeing blog.

I’m not a raw foodist by choice. I was recently diagnosed as having a complicated autoimmune condition including severe Histamine Intolerance and a form of reactive arthritis. I have become hypersensitive to high histamine foods, pollen, dust and some everyday chemicals. My condition affects every area of my life.

I have Mast Cell Activation Disease (MCAD).

I was prescribed a low histamine diet and then a raw food diet to ease my symptoms and over the past 2 years I have overcome my reluctance to a new way of eating and living. I have been experimenting to combine the two diets and I have been learning how to eat a diet comprising mainly of low histamine raw fruit and vegetables and how to change the habits of a life time.

I am starting to feel healthier than I have ever been before. I have also lost 35 lbs in weight.

I will be sharing with you how I got here and I'll be exploring low histamine raw recipes, natural beauty products, how to cope with being "allergic to everything" and generally how to regain health and fitness and live life to the full despite my unusual condition!

Please feel free to message me with any suggestions, questions, or comments. I'd love to hear from you!

This lady is very interesting. I have read her book. Her father was Max Gerson of “The Gerson Therapy ” fame. x

Most brilliant response to the question asked of vegans/vegetarians: Where do you get your protein?

IM IN LOVE, IM IN LOVE AND I DOT CARE WHO KNOWS IT!!!! :D

yesss

Love this woman.

Her name is Charlotte Gerson and her father was Dr. Max Gerson, who wrote many studies and books on the treatment of various diseases. Max was most famous for his claim to be able to cure cancer naturally. This woman’s father was a genius in his time and cured nearly every if not every disease he encountered.

Quite a fan of their work. If you haven’t seen The Gerson Miracle on netflix, I recommend it. Also, check out their books if you’re interested in nutrition and natural healing.
