Today we have a vibrant and glowing post from Tokyo’s raw sisters Andi and Angi. Much love to them for their constant inspiration and congratulations on their outstanding success.
The raw food movement has taken off like wildfire in the past several years all around the world!!
With its roots in NYC and LA raw vegan restaurants such as Quitessence and Alive, healthy eating has been proven to be delicious, accessible, and filling! Many celebrities such as Demi Moore, Madonna, and Alicia Silverstone are known to follow a raw vegan diet.
In Japan, raw food interest has skyrocketed in the past several months, which is evident by the speed that raw food blogs and interest groups have grown. Raw food blogs on blog mura in Japan doubled since March from 46 to over 90.
A diet high in raw vegan foods provides the body with countless benefits because all the vitamins, minerals, and enzymes in the food are alive and able to be used by the body. When food is cooked, not only are valuable nutrients lost, but the food chemistry changes and causes disease-causing compounds to form.
The process of digesting cooked animal products and processed foods is the most energy-draining process for the human body…that’s why it makes you so tired and depressed!!
When plant foods and fruits are introduced, the body is given a chance to rest and the body quickly begins to detoxify, or clean out unwanted inner filth. The primary cause of disease is accumulated inner waste which has not been given the chance to evacuate properly. So detoxifying this inner mess allows more more energy, health, joy, bliss, vibration and love to fill your body and life!!
Therefore, those who consume more raw foods have a cleaner body, look younger, and see a noticeable improvement in their energy levels, overall health, and vitality! “
I hope you learned something new and are inspired to add more fresh, watery, flavorful fruits and veggies into your diet! Even once a week is better than never!!

Love,
Angi and Andi
