The Live Food Factor is a complete Bible on the nutritional science behind the Raw Food diet including citations to 66 scientific studies that support eating raw to boost your immune system. Written by Susan Schenck, Licensed Acupuncturist, with a master’s in traditional Oriental medicine from Pacific College of Oriental Medicine, it covers the history of raw foodism and has a complete how-to section.

The book also covers frequently asked questions and provides “recipes”. Curious what a Live Food recipe looks like?  Check out this video of Dr. Susan Schenck preparing a few easy raw food recipes.

Dr. Schenck currently promotes the raw food diet through lectures, workshops and coaching. Visit http://www.livefoodfactor.com/.  Sign up at http://www.livefoodfactor.com/subscribeform.html to receive the first chapter, free.

Is it for me? No, I’m a vegetarian and I’m not ready to move over to the raw food diet.  I did agree that the science proved it was better, but  I like food and I’m not ready to go raw.  I am adding more raw to my diet and will continue to reference her book for suggestions.

Enjoy!
