USING A VEGAN RAW FOOD DIET TO REVERSE & PREVENT DISEASE

My name is Michel (Shelly) Keck, a.k.a. Shelly.. a.k.a. The Raw Artist. I've set up this raw food web site to share my info of why I switched to a high raw food diet. Here you'll find my raw food transitioning story and before and after pictures. Here too you will find the raw food stories/testimonials of many others as well. If you want me to share your raw food transformation story here email me your info. Here you will also find links to raw food coaching (including my raw food classes), raw food books, raw food recipes, raw food restaurants, raw food equipment, and other raw foodists web sites.

So why do I have an interest in raw foods? Simply, raw foods saved my life. For years I suffered from many illnesses; daily migraines, insomnia, muscle pain and weakness, chronic sinusitis, LGS (leaky gut syndrome), and more. All of which came on suddenly and mysteriously. The pain of the migraines, muscle pain, loss of libido, hair loss, etc. came on shortly after having received the injections of depo-provera - a form of birth control. Three doctors reassured me that depo-provera could not cause these problems. They were wrong.

To read the short version of why and how I turned to the raw food diet, juicing, and fasting to reverse my illnesses click here. For the long version you can read my entire story in my book Dying To Get Well. For anyone who can not afford to purchase the softcover version of my book Dying To Get Well it is available in .pdf format for free downloading to anyone who needs it. I know what it is like to be sick, broke and every where you turn for help people want money from you. I don't want to add to that problem. I am proud to say that to date, Feb. 3rd, 2005 there have been over 20,000 free online .pdf versions of my book given away. The information in the online version is the exact same information that is in my softcover version.

In my journey into raw foods I've found that there is much conflicting information, and many different view points. To someone who is extremely toxic and ill and in need of serious help, this misinformation, the hype, and the conflicting information in the raw food industry can be overwhelming, upsetting, and even detrimental. I can not stress strongly enough the great importance of having professional assistance, if even only in the beginning, to help you with the detox and raw food journey. In my book Dying To Get Well (download free here), I do list the contact information of doctors in conventional medicine and alternative medicine that can perhaps assist you. I am not paid for any of the information I have provided in my book.

Remember that knowledge is power. Read everything you can on raw foodism and the bodies ability to heal itself when you set forth for it the proper conditions for healing to take place. Not everyone has the same illnesses, so not everyone will take the same path. Empower yourself with information. See what works for you. There are many paths within raw foodism. One thing is for certain. Anyone can benefit from the addition of a higher percentage of raw vegan foods to your diet. Anyone can benefit from eliminating such things as refined foods, fast foods, caffeine, sugar, and salt from their diet. The information is out there for the taking.

If you are in the northern Indiana area and would like to meet in person with other raw foodists (whether you are low raw or 100% raw) for raw food potlucks, raw food support, or to attend one of my raw food classes, email me and I will put you on our NIRFS (northern indiana raw food support) group newsletter.
