Welcome to your Free Chapter from What Do Raw Fooders Eat!

I hope that you enjoy Martine's


story, meal plans and recipes. Every chapter in What Do Raw Fooders Eat, Volume 2, is set up
in much the same way; where you get to meet each person and see exactly what and how they
eat, all day, every day for 7 full days.
The difference between What Do Raw Fooders Eat, Volume 2 and a recipe book-despite the
fact that there are hundreds of recipes in the book-is that you are seeing actual meal plans, not
just a pile of unrelated recipes. Is this the key to your success as a raw fooder? I think it very
well might be. Finally, you get to see the full picture. 7 full days of eating from 24 successful raw
fooders. 504 Meals! Plus snacks!
What do you eat for lunch when you had a green smoothie for breakfast? What do you eat for
Breakfast? Then lunch, then dinner and snacks??? Find out here; 24 successful ways.
To Your Good Health,

Hello everyone! Im a 46 year young


woman who started playing with
food when I was in my midtwenties. I love making food and
playing with flavors is my favorite
thing. I have been a vegetarian for
the last 15 years, and was a
vegetarian cook for about 4 years.
About 7 years ago, one of my
friends gave me my first raw food
book as a birthday present. I
dont need to tell you that I tried the
recipes the very next day, as I was
enjoying this new way and healthy
way of preparing food.
I started to understand
more about flavors,
especially when no cooking
methods are used.
Eventually, after mastering
a couple of recipes,
I started creating my own
and sharing recipes and dishes with some friends at
raw food potlucks. What a wonderful way to learn!
Anyway, Im now making raw food everyday for
myself and my friends, and teaching students at
Living Light Culinary Arts Institute in Fort Bragg, CA.

Im originally from Montreal and


I came to the US as a student at
Living Light Culinary Arts
Institute in 2006.
Im now a regular full-time
employee and Culinary Programs
Manager at Living Light. Ive been
always attracted to health in
different ways.
I was involved in a lot of sports and
wanted to be a sports educator and
teacher when I was in my early
twenties. But, as life goes
on, I graduated as a nurse
and worked first in an
orthopedic department,
then ER and ICU.

I love making and


creating recipes, especially
converting cooked recipes
to uncooked!

I love making and creating


recipes, especially
converting cooked recipes to uncooked! Im always
looking and searching for new recipes, which to me
is really fascinating! Besides making food, I used
to be physically active and I was training as an
outrigger canoe paddler. Ive traveled and
competed in very
challenging water, so
I understand about
training, eating healthy
and respecting nature.
Being active requires
discipline, training and
knowing when to rest.
Respect to all of you
athletes!!!
I do my best to keep my
diet well balanced and
enjoy life the best that
I can! Heres some
pictures of me, and hope
I will meet you someday,
sometime!!!
Enjoy the path of health,
love, happiness and
peace.
