I this short video answering questions, which are the essential food groups.  I would say, primarily – fruit has to be on top there. We need the carbohydrate, we need the glucose for energy, we need it for brain function, pretty much every cell in our body run on glucose including our brain cells and it’s the most easily digestible form of glucose we can eat. Second is vegetables, fruit is really high in vitamins, but it’s quite low in mineral content, it does have some minerals. Fruit is low-ish in mineral content so we need those vegetables in order to get the minerals, in or ..read more

Will I Gain Weight on Fruit? Fruit Phobics Listen up!
Real Raw Nutrition

3y ago
Let’s have a little friendly chat about gaining weight on fruit.  In this short video, I address this whole issue with fruit and people’s massive fear of it – that if they eat fruit they will gain weight.  The bottom line is it’s such a huge myth! What’s important to remember is that most people CAN eat a lot of fruit and, as long as you don’t combine it with a lot of fat, you won’t experience blood sugar issues,  and it won’t spike your blood sugar leaving that glucose circling in your bloodstream and causing all sorts of metab ..read more

Can you gain weight on a raw vegan diet?
Real Raw Nutrition
by Milna Vasquez
3y ago
  In this short video I talk briefly about weight loss and answer a Fresh Start 90 Day members question about whether it’s possible to gain weight on a raw vegan diet. In short, I say that you definitely can but, that tendencies to overeat are not as great because naturally you feel more satiated eating this volume of food.  When our bodies are getting the nutrients that we need, then we’re not craving that other junky food we normally would be eating. Some other articles on weight loss that you might find interesting are listed below: The benefits of meal plann ..read more

How to set and stick to your goals – Goalsetting for the Fearless!
Real Raw Nutrition
by Anthea Frances
3y ago
Our family goal and vision-board for our upcoming 2020 overseas holiday. Sometimes you just have to throw your knapsack over the wall! I was always fairly good at manifesting things in my life, but pretty crap at goal-setting.  But recently I learned a way of goal-setting that is profoundly effective, and I’ve been using it since November last year with stunning results. I think it’s a really important skill to develop if you want to do anything important in your life like reverse chronic disease, lose weight or achieve your financial and lifestyle goals. Over the past 7 years I’ve chan ..read more

Watch me make Strawberry Banana Mint Smoothie and ground chia meal in my new Optimum Nutriforce Extractor! I really like the simplicity of this machine, which makes smoothies, sauces, plant-based milks, nicecreams and ground nut and seed meals. It has a ‘suction-cup’ base so that it never moves around on the counter when it’s working hard. It comes with two different sized canisters, a small and a large, and two different styles of blade assemblies, one for blending and one for grinding (nuts and seeds, coffee beans etc). I love that there is a small-sized canister because this mean ..read more

I was asked to contribute something for this beautiful infographic, giving tips on how to create healthy lifestyle changes through small actions. The main focus is on how food, sleep, and exercise can affect our body and, more specially, our metabolism. The small choices that we make everyday can really impact our bodies in more ways than we know.  Cellular function and NAD+, which you can learn more about here, is a perfect example. Apart from discussing the science behind healthy living, the graphic also features some personal advice, including a tip of my very own. Here’s the little, b ..read more

Salty Crunchy Cravings on a raw vegan diet?
Real Raw Nutrition
by Anthea Frances
3y ago
I used to get terrible cravings for salty, crunchy foods on my fruit-based low-fat raw vegan diet. So much so that I would binge on crackers and chips, and this would completely derail me. In today’s vlog I share about how I resolved them… Cravings generally mean that you’re body is missing something in terms of nutrients. If you don’t have one already I put together this free one page Raw Vegan Balanced Nutrition Checklist, which you can use to make sure you’re getting all your nutrient needs met on a raw vegan diet. But basically, if you’re not eating enough greens in your diet you’re likel ..read more

Iron Deficient on a Raw Vegan Diet?
Real Raw Nutrition
by Anthea Frances
3y ago
Did you know that 40% of Americans are Iron Deficient?  That includes people eating meat, which is meant to be the preferred source of heme iron. People are often concerned that when you start a vegan or raw vegan diet you’ll get deficient in iron, but as you can see eating meat does not necessarily protect you. I have suffered with iron deficiency anaemia at a few different stages in my life –  When I was a young adult, then again when I was pregnant and then more recently as a raw vegan.  The first two times I was eating a diet rich in animal products, including meat.  E ..read more
