Re:Gluten Free Roxanne's Raw Products

May 4, 2008

Glad to know that Roxanne is marketing her foods. I haven't seen

them. I love her cookbook (mostly for the beautiful pictures) and the

many other raw foods un-cookbooks that I have used. I have been

moving towards raw foods for the last year and also love having Cafe

Gratitude for a safer place to go to with friends. I can't say enough

about how much better I feel eating that way. I just did a raw juice

feast for 16 days and my blood sugar was the best it has been in many

many years.

The most amazing thing with this raw food way of eating is that the

more I do it the less I feel sick (as in having to always think about

having celiac). Instead I feel that I am making choices to be healthy

at each meal not that I am always one bite away from getting sicker.

I don't know if you all can understand what I am talking about but is

is a very different mindset.

Thanks for posting about Roxanne's food. It is a difficult time to

introduce an expensive line of food. It is more expensive to use

organic veggies and I am sure that they don't have much shelf life

either which adds to the expense as well. I will look for them soon

to support her efforts.

PS Note from your blog about making a zucchini lasagna: I made a

killer raw zucchini mushroom tomato lasagna a few weeks ago. Will be

a regular on my menu - so good! Try one!

It is so cool to hear that Celiacs are having success with Raw Foods.I

have also been moving towards raw foods recently and have been noticing

marked improvement in digestion, decrease of incidents in feeling

really sick after eating out, and really improved blood sugar. I love

Cafe Gratitude because I am also dairy and sugar intolerant. This is

the only place I can go and eat pizza and ice cream with a clear

conscience.

When I first got diagnosed with Celiac 2 years ago my digestion was so

poor that I could not eat raw vegetables for about two months, and then

I slowly re-introduced little bits of raw veggies. I am curious if

others who have been having success with raw foods are newly diagnosed?
