Learn the Raw Truth with Better Life.
For me, the pièce de résistance was the Pizza that actually looked more like one of those artisinal, haute cuisine presentations of daringly stacked foods. Supporting the nearly three-inch-tall pizza was the crunchy base of flax crackers spread with pesto. Over the pesto was a thick filling of ricotta made from soaked, seasoned cashews followed by thin layers of zucchini and tomatoes. The exceptional topping was a slab of "mozzarella," topped with tomato sauce, diced tomatoes, Parmesan, and chopped fresh basil.

Battling Diabetes with a Plant-Based Diet
"When people begin a healthful diet, most see big improvements in weight, cholesterol, and their blood sugar. Their need for medications diminishes, and some may not need medications at all. In some cases, you would never know they had had diabetes. However, I caution people not to simply throw their medications away. They need to speak with their doctors so they can alter their medication regimens only when and if it is appropriate.
Let me describe a case: A man named Vance joined our study. His father was dead by age 30, and Vance was 31 when he was diagnosed with diabetes. As our study began, he started a low-fat, vegan diet and gradually lost about 60 pounds over a year's time. His blood sugar control returned to normal, and his doctor discontinued his medications. Imagine what it feels like to see family members assaulted by this disease, but then to realize that you have effectively tackled it by making healthful adjustments to your diet.
Vance also encouraged me to mention that it is not only blood sugar that gets better, his erectile dysfunction also improved dramatically, too--in case anyone needs an extra motivator."

Aware that people enjoy socializing and traveling, Natasha suggests planning ahead by consuming plenty of green smoothies before traveling and carrying raw and dried foods on the trip. Because Natasha knows eating out with friends can present temptation, she suggests ordering a salad with only raw vegetables and fresh lemon for dressing.
