Not at all. You can incorporate some cooked food for part of the week if you feel that is easier for you. Just make sure you have some raw food on the plate and choose vegan cooked food free from wheat, dairy or meat.

Yes, more than likely. As your body starts to eliminate toxins and by consuming raw your body will utilise this food much more easily for fuel and metabolism. If you are already slim you may experience some weight loss in the beginning but most people find that after a period of time their body finds its optimal weight range.

No. Although we do advise eating organic, you can still eat raw to suit your budget! Buying conventional produce is a step up from buying junk or processed foods.

We recommend avoiding meat during your 7 days. Some people find that after the Plan they would like to add some meat back into their diet, if you choose to do this I advise sourcing organic, grass fed if possible.

Absolutely! This Plan is perfect for anyone with gluten, wheat, or dairy allergies as I do not use any of these products in raw food. There is also zero refined sugar in anyway and aim for Low GI foods as much as possible.

You will need a good sharp chef's knife, chopping board, peeler, measuring cups and spoons, a good blender, food processor, and preferably a nut milk bag, mandoline and vege spiraliser. The rest you can add to your kitchen later.

You can avoid detox reactions by slowing down your transition, ie adding in more cooked foods during your week (cooked vegan) and making sure you drink lots of extra good quality filtered water during the week.

Yes! If you feel that will help you transition! Just remember to stick to the 80/20 rule, so 80% raw on your plate, 20% cooked (vegan). Or 20% of your week could be cooked meals, just remember to have some raw on the plate to help with digestion.

You may experience additional hunger to begin with as your body adapts to a new diet. If you get hungry, thats ok, choose to snack on high water content vegetables or have an extra serving of your meal. Remember you can eat as much as you like of high water content fruits and vegetables. You may also want to add in some good fats and protein from nuts to keep you fuller for longer.

Not at all. This is one of the reasons why we love raw food so much! You still get to eat yummy delights like chocolate, cheesecake, slices on this Plan! We just give you much healthier kick arse versions of the original artery clogging recipes.

Some people may choose to seek additional digestive support during transition. This is due to many people finding their digestive enzymes don't work so well coming from a cooked diet. Their stomach acid production may be low and their gut flora may be unbalanced. I recommend choosing to add digestive enzymes, betaine hydrochloric acid tablets and a good pro-biotic capsule to each meal if you experience any digestive discomfort during transition.

The good news? The more you consume raw the stronger your digestion will become and you can do away with the supplements.

Thats ok, forgive yourself, love yourself and be ok with it. As long as you have the mindset you are getting back on the wagon tomorrow with your end goal in mind you will be fine. And have a big green juice to celebrate knowing you will get there.

No. None of the recipes on the Plan require a dehydrator.

Yes! With this Plan you get to choose your start date. I recommend maximum 2-4 days out from purchase as this gives you time to read the material and get shopping for your first week of raw some!
