In Food as Medicine, I wrote about what I have learned about how what we eat affects our health.

Research has shown that cooking foods above 116 degrees destroys as much as 80% of the nutrients in our food, as well as digestive enzymes which are so important to maintaining a healthy digestive tract.  Here are some delicious raw food recipes that are not only delicious, but will benefit your health.

• Nori Rolls
• Raw Corn Chowder
• Raw Seed Cheese
• Raw Yam Soup
• Raw Kale Salad
• Charlie Trotter’s Asparagus Avocado Soup
• Chilled Cukes
