Oh, and they\u2019ll also be the ones with the serene disposition and flawless, youthful skin, who emerged, blissed out, from a festive season spent sipping kombucha and popping bliss balls.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s no denying it, the raw foodies are on to something.<\/p>\n<p>Raw food has been around for a long time, but popped up into mainstream consciousness a few years ago \u2013 said to be behind Demi\u2019s Moore\u2019s Charlie\u2019s Angels body and Donna Karan\u2019s 20lb weight loss. And lean, it seems, is just the beginning.<\/p>\n<p>Because while eating uncooked foods (or foods heated to a maximum of 46\u00b0C \/ 115\u00b0F) might not sound appealing long-term, it\u2019s in a therapeutic context where raw foods really shine. Just Google \u2018raw food healing\u2019 and you\u2019ll see what we mean. Diabetes, autoimmune diseases, food allergies, digestive issues, even cancer \u2013 there are raw food miracle stories for all of them and more.<\/p>\n<p>Tanya Maher, creator of Better Raw, founder of Tanya\u2019s Caf\u00e9 in Chelsea, and the expert raw chef behind our Cellular Renewal Online Retreat, knows about the healing power of raw first hand.<\/p>\n<p>In 1998, Tanya was involved in a near fatal car accident in which she broke her back and damaged her internal organs. As if surgery, scarring and a stint in a full body brace wasn\u2019t enough to deal with, her super-sensitive insides rejected food, created chronic digestive issues and headaches, and took her to the brink of diabetes.<\/p>\n<p>Over time and with the support of her parents, Tanya transitioned from a traditional salami-loving Russian diet to a plant-based and then raw food diet. And she healed for good. (Read more about Tanya\u2019s journey right here):\u00a0http:\/\/betterraw.com\/about<\/p>\n<p>\u2018It made so much sense to me\u2019 she says. \u2018As soon as you apply heat to food, vitamins and minerals diminish, proteins and antioxidants get halved, enzymes vital for digestion die entirely. In turn our bodies spend all their efforts on digesting the mineral depleted foods and leave us with hardly any energy for anything else.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Her passion for \u2018living foods\u2019 as she prefers to call this lifestyle, has led her to coach hundreds of clients, lead retreats around the world and now bring her food to the world through Tanya\u2019s Caf\u00e9. Not to mention our Cellular Renewal Retreat \u2013 in which Tanya\u2019s raw recipes are geared towards helping your body reach an alkalised state where detoxification and regeneration can occur, and lay the foundations true health and healing.<\/p>\n<p>The Cellular Renewal Online Retreat begins Monday 19th January, and combines delicious, easy-to-make raw food recipes with daily meditation, intention setting, yoga and wellness advice. Best of all, it\u2019s free for existing subscribers (and only \u00a337 for newbies!). Find out more here.<\/p>\n<p>And if you\u2019re salivating over the green smoothie above (it\u2019s one of Tanya\u2019s) and there\u2019s loads more to look forward to on the retreat.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"fb_wrap\"><a class=\"fb_link\" onclick=\"fbs_click('https:\/\/movementformodernlife.com\/blog\/cleansing-healing-potential-raw-foods','');return false;\" href=\"#\">Send to Facebook<\/a><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; Do you know a raw foodie?
