ABOUT THE BOOK
EDITORIAL REVIEW
Medical researchers have found that a high-fat, high-sugar diet, combined with environmental pollutants and stress, can lead to a buildup of toxins in the body collectively known as chronic degenerative disease. Here holistic physician Gabriel Cousens provides a dietary regimen that may help reverse this process by introducing whole, natural, organic, and raw foods into the diet. These restorative “live” foods can reverse chronic disease and bring back health and vitality. This eclectic cookbook shares 250 delicious vegan recipes from chefs at the Tree of Life Cafe. Dishes include Avocado Salad with Rosemary, Green Dragon Broccoli, Raw-violis, Lavender Milk, and Carob Coconut Cream Eclairs. International entrees, juices, and aromatherapeutic remedies are also featured.
USER REVIEWS
"Like a lot of people, I am gradually coming to the realization that what I put into my body affects the way my mind and body are able to function. Not all food is created equal and counting calories or carbs does very little good if I'm not giving my body the nutrition it needs. Slowly, I am learning that my body, mind, and spirit prefer whole foods to fast food and empty calories.
Rainbow Green Live- Food Cuisine introduces the concept of live-food. This plan is strictly vegan and promotes the usage of fresh raw foods whenever possible. For most people, these recipes will be a radical change from what they eat at present. Nonetheless, they will provide a place to start.
I had a few personal challenges while trying these recipes. A large portion of the foods contained coconut, which I am allergic to, so I had to make some adjustments. Moreover, many of the dishes contained ingredients that were unavailable in my area, so I again had to make substitutions. "

"In response to people not sure about eating this kind of diet -
I would look at the results Tim Van Orden at running [...] is getting. He is beating world elite skyscraping running and endurance athletes after having only been on an e-x-ceptionally minimally raw food diet for 2 years, having only been running for two years and is a late age in running circles of 38. Brendan Brazier also is interesting.
Also, Victoria Boutenko's theory on how greens (organic - as startling difference in her book Green Smoothie between mostly 1,480mg compared to 1 to 8mg of any standard vitamin or mineral per 100g greens) exceed the USDA requirements on almost all counts, the exception being fibre and how this diet does not cause a-n-y of the myriad human illnesses in chimpanzees, who are used to test blood samples in animal testing for human medicine, hearts and lungs etc. and who share 99.4% the same gene sequence as humans.

"Gaqbriel Cousens is a wise and gifted man. His presentaion of his research, his understanding of our body's need for specialized, individual plans, raw nutrition and levels of healing, rid me of the confusion about all the diets out there. He recognises the need for support and the connection between our health and spirituality. I have tried many recipes and find them delicious and ellegant.
I am also touched by the "delicacies", and feeding our babies sections. His devotion to our total health and the planet's, shows in every page of this book. "
