Many people are unaware of the possible negative consequences that accompany such an offer. Three months ago this TV company from New York called me several times and asked for the addresses of raw families in the US. They promised $2,000 to me if I help them find one and $20,000 to the participating family. I replied to them that while there were probably hundreds of raw families in this country it was unlikely that any raw family would want to be exposed. Now, as the word is out, I am concerned for some raw families who might agree to participate for the sake of money. Just last weekend I was in Eugene and met my friend Nancy B., whose ex-husband (a former raw foodist) is suing her for "improperly" feeding her two boys (ages 7 years and 2 years). Both boys have developed well according to their doctor but she is afraid to live at home and is living in her van. It is not just a fear, it is a reality. Raw food is not officially recognized yet. Since 2005 my family has been financially and psychologically supporting five different families whose children were attempted to be taken (or were taken) away by authorities. If similar children will get exposed, there will be some viewers out of millions that would want to help “poor” children to be fed “properly.” Especially if professional TV producers will get kids to talk. Children are often naïve and they can say things like, “Yeah, I also like pizza but my parents never allow me to eat it!” For years, my kids were questioned about their diet by many strangers on the street. We were able to escape by constantly moving. I strongly believe that to expose the benefits of the raw food diet, adults have to act first without involving children, and this process is already happening. When it will become more normal and acceptable to be on a raw diet among adults than we can expose our kids.
