Glad to have found you!

I am a mother of nine, and we decided to go raw in November of 2005. We follow an 80% raw diet, with added whole grains and some cooked food in the colder months.

My children range in ages from 22 to brand new, so I am very busy. We love the way eating raw makes us feel--and we look forward to sharing recipes here and gaining some knowledge!

Some of the positive aspects of going raw have been:

• my six year old daughter's autism symptoms lessened dramatically
• my children homeschool a lot better
• my rosacea is gone
• my oldest daughter does not bleed when she menstruates anymore
• my last pregnancy was better than my first
• my 1 1/2 year old daughter who has been about 95% raw her entire life has been sick only once with a sniffly nose
• my four year old son healed an abcessed tooth with green smoothies
• I lost 63 pounds in 2 months
• my husband and I have dramatically improved our sex life!

That's just the few I have time for right now! It has been an incredible journey and we love it!!

Hi! I am very excited to see a parent on here! I hope you share all your parenting tips on how to raise raw kids. (I really need some!)

I am most likely in the minority here, but 9 kids sounds amazing! I am looking forward to learning more about you and your family.
