I was in beautiful Prague for work last week, which sounds exciting but sadly I had just the one opportunity to leave the office, eat out and test a typical Czech restaurant menu for ‘raw food’. The menu at this particular beer-based ‘restaurant’ was more of a manual of ‘how to eat meat with meat with [...]

This month in the UK we wait with bated breath to see the new healthier, more nutritionally transparent menu from KFC. I see it now. Raw cashew nut replacement chicken buckets, raw mock chicken fillet burgers….Oh what a raw dream. Perhaps my sarcasm is misplaced because already, earlier this year, KFC did the unthinkable and ditched [...]
How to go raw: my raw cupboard essentials
Posted in Raw food news, tagged raw cupboard, Raw essentials, raw food, starting raw on July 30, 2011 | Leave a Comment »
By some strange quirk in the universe lots of people have recently asked me what they need to buy to make ‘going raw’ as easy as possible. It is strangely harder than I thought to find a list online so here are some of the raw basics I have in my cupboard at all times. I should [...]
Raw food restaurant review: Rasayana

My friend San Bao, of tea ceremony fame in Koh Samui, raved about the Bangkok raw food restaurant Rasayana to me two years ago. This year I finally have a few extra days up my sleeve so decided to stop by Bangkok for a raw lunch. I decided to walk and arrive via a motorway, [...]
Fasting for the fast lane

I’m back in Thailand at Spa Samui detox ‘spa’ and 7 days into my fifth annual fast. Spa Samui is by no means glamorous but it is by far, for me anyway, the most effective and most relaxing (thanks to Thai culture), reasonably priced detox spa I can find. It also has, as they describe, [...]
Watercress cures cancer, baldness and dull salads

I’m in love with watercress at the moment and not just because my iphone app seasons says it is in season locally. Watercress tastes delicious and peppery, has many medicinal properties (from cancer to baldness cures), speeds up metabolisms, is a diuretic, and helps pick up your energy if you’re feeling tired. Gram for gram, [...]
Carrots are sexy say researchers

Being the very fair skinned child in a family of olive skinned naturally tanned siblings and parents, I have always fantasised about waking up one day with a tan. I did try fake tan once – but I looked more like an oompa loompa at Madame Tussauds than an actual person. Well – according to [...]
Great Swapathon is a big step forward for the obese

I’ve read conflicting views of the Department of Health’s recently launched Change for Life Great Swapathon. A mouthful in itself, the idea is that the British government, with the help of the world’s biggest food businesses (Asda, Birds Eye, JJB Sports, Nestle, Mars, Unilever, Warburtons and Weight Watchers), The Sun and News of the World, [...]
Gandhi was a raw food hypocrite too

I’m in India at the moment and a few days ago visited the Gandhi Smitri museum in Delhi. Here I bought numerous pamphlets which are collations of Gandhi’s various lectures, speeches and articles he presented and wrote on various topics over his life. Reading through them I see that Gandhi is also a raw food [...]
