Ricardo's raw transformation Ricardo after I was raised as a vegetarian and in 1990 I decided to go on a vegan diet. By 2001 I started to develop a lot of abdominal pains and was getting sick all the time. I thought I was doing the healthiest diet on this planet, just eating organic food and taking lots of vitamins. The pain was getting worse and worse and I decided to check it with a GP. The doctor checked me and said that I had to go to surgery ASAP and asked me to go to the hospital. When I got to the hospital I fainted, and lost consciousnesses a few times. The doctors wanted to operate on me to check my guts since my white cells count was alarmingly high. I said to them, "NO". In the end I spent 7 days in hospital. I had to endure all manner of medical tests and procedures and in the end they decided to give me antibiotics and send me home. They did not find out what was making me sick. And I was still feeling that awful abdominal pain. Ricardo before After that I went to a Naturopath, a famous one in Sydney. She asked me to do more tests. She said that I was allergic to almost everything and could only eat tofu, broccoli, cauliflower and a few types of fruit. No way! That day I decided to find a solution for it, and I did! I went to the internet and did lots of research and everything was pointing to TOXEMIA, as a result of an excess of cooked food in my diet making my body sick and increasing the white cells count. In other words, my body was fighting against cooked food and the only solution for it was RAW FOOD. I ordered lots of RAW books over the internet and spoke to Shazzie and after 6 months my body was perfect -- no pain and I also had lots of energy. After that I decided to create my own business to help people to eat better and heal themselves. Now I give lectures, cooking classes and coaching to lots of people.
