What Do Healthy Raw Fooders
Eat In A Typical Day?
By Trevor Justice, Owner/Director
To show our students what real health experts eat, I asked eight chefs and authors to log what they ate during a typical day. I did the same. Then I published all eight food journals in Lesson 25 of The Vegan Mastery Program. I’m reprinting three of them here.
Rick Dina's 1-Day Food Journal
Breakfast: One 6½-inch cantaloupe (without seeds or rinds).
Lunch: Green smoothie (fresh-squeezed orange juice, bananas, frozen mango chunks and kale).
Dinner: Romaine lettuce salad with tomatoes, cauliflower, shredded zucchini and a home-made dressing made from zucchini, fresh-squeezed lemon juice, soaked almonds, soaked sesame seeds and flax seed.
Snacks: A small handful of almonds.
Raederle Phoenix's 1-Day Food Journal
Breakfast: Fruit Medley consisting of diced pineapple, apple, pear, kiwi, pomegranate and lemon.
Snack: Four oranges and one mango.
Lunch: A handful of spiced seeds (pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, flax seeds, hemp seeds, fresh-squeezed lemon juice, dried basil, sea salt and additional spices to taste) and several large ribs of celery.
Snack: One small carob brownie made from walnuts, Brazil nuts, medjool dates, raw carob powder, vanilla powder and sea salt.
Dinner: Kelp-Kraut Slaw (kelp noodles, fresh-squeezed lemon, sauerkraut, kim chi, grated carrot, celery, basil, dill, oregano, crumbled nori sheets, minced chard, parsley and sea salt).
Raederle says, “When I do eat fatty meals, I always make sure I eat them during lunch and that I have time to lay down for half an hour afterward. Because of the complex digestion of fats, it is best to be able to rest and let your body focus on digestion. However, avoid doing this at night while sleeping because digestion hormones disrupt your natural restorative sleeping hormones.”
Darcy Crosman's 1-Day Food Journal
Breakfast:
2 tablespoons Mila (ground chia) soaked in water
2 tablespoons lucuma powder
½ cup rasberries
1 banana
1 splash almond milk
1 pinch stevia
Lunch:
1 cup water
1 teaspoon vanilla sunwarrrior protein powder (raw sprouted rice)
2 teaspoons Ormus supergreens (a probiotic combination of cultured greens: alfalfa, barley, wheat and oat grass, spinach, parsley, yucca, peppermint, and stevia).
Dinner:
Juliano'’s NRG soup:
½ cup water
1 cucumber (peeled)
¼ tomato
¼ cup fresh-squeezed lemon juice
½ cup chopped mint
½ cup diced tomato
¼ cup corn, cut from the cob
½ tablespoon minced garlic
¼ tablespoon minced ginger
¼ tablespoons habanero chili
½ teaspoon celtic sea salt
½ medium apple, chopped
1 cup fresh-squeezed orange juice
½ avocado (optional)
Trevor Justice’s 1-Day Food Journal
Breakfast: Green smoothie (1 banana, 3 rehydrated apricots, several leaves of kale, 1 cup of water).
Mid-morning meal: Chopped up acid fruit (such as strawberries, kiwis, or oranges) or subacid fruit (such as peaches or pears) with raw almond butter.
Lunch: Big salad with spinach, romaine lettuce, or red leaf lettuce, topped with sprouts, olives, and other veggies and guacamole (instead of regular dressing).
Snack: cacao shake. (1.5 cups almond milk, 2 Tbsp Xylitol, 1 Tbsp cacao, 2 tsp sunflower seeds, 1 Brazil nut)
Dinner: Raw corn chowder (from "The Raw Gourmet") with a side salad.
Night time snack: chopped up acid fruit topped with tahini and coconut nectar. When I eat this, I eat it several hours after dinner.
Throughout the day, I drink green tea, herbal Chai, or lemonade sweetened with Xylitol or coconut nectar. Several times a week, I get a 16 ounce green juice from the local juice bar. It is primarily cucumber, celery, chard, and kale. But I ask for 1-2 carrots to help offset the bitterness of the kale.
As a Mastery Program student, you’ll get access to the rest of our Sample Daily Menus lesson, plus a 1-hour Q&A call on the topic. And this is just one of the 50 weekly lessons you’ll receive!
 “As a recipe book author and 30-year teacher of macrobiotics, vegan and live foods preparation classes, I found the Vegan Mastery Program to be very comprehensive. The expert Q&A calls were particularly useful. And Dr. Klaper is exceptionally knowledgeable and easy to listen to. Considering how much I've gotten, you definitely undercharge.”
– Lenore Y. Baum, M.A., author of Sublime Soups and Lenore’s Natural Cuisine, Weaverville NC
Why remain vulnerable to vitamin or mineral deficiencies when you can find out exactly how to eat and absorb enough calcium, iron, Omega 3s, and Vitamins A, B12, and D?
Just one oversight or deficiency -- if ignored for too long -- can leave you vulnerable to disease, and potentially thousands in doctor or dental bills. Why take that gamble when you can thrive on a high raw vegan diet now and for the rest of your life?
