Because of that promise, the two of us and our colleagues at the University of Brasilia and others are devoted to creating hardier, more productive and more nutritious varieties and making them widely available to farmers in developing countries. Our team focuses largely on applying traditional breeding techniques to form hybrids between cassava and its wild relatives, taking advantage of traits that have evolved in the wild plants over millions of years. This approach is less costly than genetic engineering and does not raise the safety concerns that make some people wary of genetically modified crops. Meanwhile researchers and nonprofit organizations in the developed world have begun to take an interest and have produced genetically modified cassava varieties for the same purposes. The recent completion of a draft genome sequencing of cassava may open the way to further improvements.

The approach that Markus Rothkranz takes toward the raw food lifestyle is that everything that we need, and all of the foods that our bodies need to heal themselves, is growing around us all the time. From dandelion greens to nettles to edible wild weeds, Markus Rothkranz explains how nature will magically grow what we need, when we need it, where we need it.

Markus Rothkranz says that there is no need to spend so much money at the health food store to get healthy when nature is providing us with so much healthy foods right in our backyards!

Markus has come out with a 9-hour DVD set empowering your to learn how to harvest natural and wild foods in your own backyard, and beyond!

— Figs are really good for your body, and especially for men and their virility

— If you are just starting out on the raw food path, make the mental decision to aim for 80% raw, and then just always focus on adding as much raw food as you can to your diet. Do not worry if you aren’t 100% raw!

— Take it easy, and remember that slow and steady wins the race.

— Be prepared for the possibility that you will go through some challenges as your body detoxes, and no longer receives artificial stimulants from cooked foods and the chemicals that were in them. Your adrenals could very well have shut down while receiving these artificial stimulants, so it might take a bit of time before your body gets them recharged and functioning again…but it *will* happen.

— Remember…you are on nature’s schedule! Allow your body to clean itself out and get naturally functioning again. It has taken your whole life to get where you are, so it is going to take some time to undo everything. You won’t get healthy overnight, but you *will* get healthy as fast as mother nature allows!

DAN’S FAVORITE RAW FOOD MAGAZINE!

** Visit http://vibrancemagazine.com to subscribe **

— If any of you are looking for some inspiration in written form in addition to these videos, then I *highly* recommend that you subscribe to VIBRANCE MAGAZINE, which is by far my *favorite* raw food magazine. Formerly known as “Living Nutrition Magazine” from 1996-2008, today it is now VIBRANCE MAGAZINE and is published twice a year exclusively in a digital format. Each issue is jam-packed with highly illuminating content which is beneficial, informative, and most importantly can be easily applied to *your* life.

— Each issue features several thought-provoking articles, which I’m sure you will enjoy as much as I do. For example, the past issue that I read had articles on: raw food athletes, rock dust, comfort foods and their raw food equivalents.

— During all the tough times I experienced when I first went raw, reading this magazine was sometimes the only thing that could keep me on track! Especially during the times when I didn’t (yet) have any like-minded friends to lean on for support on the raw food path.

— For years, I have always looked up to the editor of the magazine, Dave Klein, and today I am honored to be able to call him my friend. He asked me if I would let my viewers know about his magazine and I said I would be more than happy to share this with them! I truly think you will enjoy this magazine and all it has to offer….for you know me….if I didn’t think it was high-quality information, then I wouldn’t be sharing it with you! It really is raw food inspiration of the highest caliber.

Digestive Enzymes are enzymes that specifically work in the digestive system to facilitate the digestion, absorption, and transportation of nutrients. They also work to promote timely elimination of digestive waste products that are not of use to the body. Without enzymes, our cells would not get adequate nutrition and we would not survive.

Enzymes function as catalysts to enhance and dramatically speed up biochemical reactions that occur in every one of our cells. They are only activated in water, so staying hydrated is very important for enzymes to work effectively. Enzymes must be present to ensure proper digestion of nutrients, energy production, metabolism, transportation of fluid to cells, and elimination of toxins among many other functions.

Enzymes exist in foods to help our body’s breakdown what we eat. Raw, uncooked foods are the only foods that contain enzymes. Since the majority of our diets are cooked foods, we significantly limit the enzymes available in our food for digestion, thus putting more stress on our digestive systems. Some supplemental enzymes should be taken with food to enhance digestion and absorption of nutrients, whereas other supplemental enzymes should be taken on an empty stomach to support circulation, decrease inflammation, support our immune systems and combat stress. Imbalances in these factors have been scientifically proven to be associated with or the cause of numerous diseases.

Ingredients:

4 cups quick or old fashioned oats, uncooked
1 cup chopped nuts (I used 1/3 cup sliced almonds, 1/3 cup chopped pecans, and 1/3 cup English walnuts.)
1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
2/3 cup butter or margarine, melted
1/3 cup light corn syrup (You may use honey.)
1/2 teaspoon salt
cooking oil spray

Combine all ingredients in a large bowl, and mix well. Press into a 15 1/4-inch by 10 1/2-inch jelly roll pan that has been sprayed with cooking oil. Bake at 450 degrees for 8 to 10 minutes. (Mixture will be brown and bubbly. I cooked my granola bars 10 minutes in this demonstration, but they were a little over-brown; 8 minutes would have been better.) Cool. Cut into bars and serve on a serving plate or store in a sealed container for up to 2 weeks. They stay fresh for a very long time! These granola bars contain *only* healthy ingredients and are a great choice over a candy bar, which generally has no nutritional value! They taste great, also! I hope you get a chance to try them!!! –Betty
