Michelle Schulman, head chef of Arnolds way raw food cafe in Lansdale,

P.a. has a marvelous story to share about the powerful healing

benefits of being on a raw food diet. She can be found daily working

behind the counter preparing simple and delicious raw food meals for

the cafe. Michelle also has a stunning voice being a classically

trained opera singer and you can check her out in action here.

 

What got you interested in raw foods?

 

For years I had been hearing about raw foods from a spiritual teacher,

the founder of the Foundation of Human Understanding, Roy Masters. Roy

wrote a book on raw food called " Eat No Evil. " I had read this years

ago. He proclaimed that God gave us raw unadulterated foods to live

from and man corrupted them. People with obesity problems and problems

controlling food were advised by him to eat raw. Roy planted the seed.

Then, about 10 years ago a girlfriend told me about a raw food retreat

called " optimum health institute " or O.H.I. in San Diego because she

knew I had always struggled with my weight and also struggled terribly

with binge and compulsive eating, and she thought this retreat would

help me, as a friend of hers had gone there and lost a lot of weight

quickly. At the time, the retreat was also very inexpensive, so I

decided to go for 4 weeks and I'd meet my friend there. As it turned

out, she never showed up, she was unable to come, but the retreat left

an indelible mark as the raw diet indeed freed me from feelings of

compulsion with food as Roy had suggested would happen.
