Raw Mondays for a Month

Excerpt from the book and community college course: Raw Mondays for a Month, by: Mia J. Young, RN (This will be a 5 part series...)

Introducing... Raw Food Monday's!

Welcome to Raw Monday's 4 a Month. This program was prepared for those who are wanting to consciously eat more raw vegan, healing food and for those who want a slow introduction into Raw Veganism. This program is four weeks long and is set to move the student, slowly, into eventually eating 100% Raw vegan for an entire day.

This workbook will be set up in four sections:

Monday #1: 25% Raw Vegan

Monday #2: 50% Raw Vegan

Monday #3: 75% Raw Vegan

Monday #4:100% Raw Vegan

You will be instructed on what to eat, how to plan your day and will be given sample food and grocery lists, needed to fulfill your RAW requirement, for each Monday. The goal of this program is to teach you that you CAN go a whole day without eating cooked food or meat products, and enjoy it!
