The challenges of switching to a raw food diet

Time

Some parts of switching to a raw food diet require more time than you would need with your current diet. But, like most things, if something is worth doing, then it is worth doing properly. Fuelling our bodies is one of the most fundamental things we do.

Motivation

We say that you should not beat yourself up over your motivation levels. Motivation levels fluctuate. Just because they are high one day and lower the next, it does not mean that you are not motivated. Just because you cannot do it all the time, it does not mean that you cannot do it most of the time. And most of the time is better, in our opinion, than not at all.

Fear of missing out

Most social occasions have a focus on food. Relax! More and more people and restaurants are catering for vegans or raw fooders. If they can’t cater for you, or you are reluctant to ask, then just take an afternoon off, or do what I do and take a salad with you and or a dish to share, people love it.

Equipment

Don’t spend thousands on new kitchen stuff when you are starting out. Start simple. You need four things when starting out:
  • A good knife
  • A basic blender
  • A food processor
  • A basic juicer

Money

Honesty time – following a raw food lifestyle can sometimes be a little more expensive. It is not that much more. And, as you become more accomplished, it is often a similar cost. If you are spending slightly more money, then you could regard that as an investment in your health. Just like a gym membership.
