 Bar none, my favorite raw recipe book January 5, 2009
When I first tried raw, I started with Juliano's "Raw, the Uncook Book." I loved the food, but didn't have the ingredients or time to make the creations in it. I was discouraged for a long time.
Then I discovered Natalia Rose. While I still recommend "The Raw Food Detox Diet" for initiating new raw foodies, "Raw Food Life Force Energy" has by far the best recipes. With about eight ingredients, a juicer and a blender, you can make everything in this book in less than 20 minutes.
While I think the recipes are the standout in this book, I also really love the extra time she spends explaining food combining. This topic can really be confusing, and it really helped me that all the recipes are coded so you know what to eat with what.
I have been successfully food combining now pretty regularly for several months, and I shed 10 pounds as a result.
As far as the "vibrations" you get from food, I am a little skeptical that it is actual science. I was already convinced on the principles of juicing, raw, and food combining from "The Raw Food Detox Diet." Having read (or at least skimmed!) a lot of books on these topics, it is still impressive that Natalia Rose has pulled it all together in both of these books.
As a side note, this book does contain recipes for flesh-based meals (fish and cheese). If you are a vegan, just skip those. If you want to add some raw to your diet, but don't want to give up the flesh, rest assured that Natalia Rose is not preachy at all. She is happy to recommend more raw, and is not judgmental like some other authors.
great December 14, 2008
a great next step to the Raw Food Detox by Natalia. The first one is wonderful for getting started, this is great for moving along into higher ground.
 Best used as a supplement for Raw Food Detox Diet December 8, 2008
First let me say, don't read this book unless you've read Natalia Rose's first, the Raw Food Detox Diet. That being said, this book was a little to new-agey for me, I don't understand or am interested in how much specific foods "vibrate." I bought this book because it does expand, recipe wise and question and answer wise from her previous book, which is what I was looking for. Two thumbs up for the new and numerous recipes, along with finding the answers to questions I had after reading her first book.
For those interested in chi, energy, nutritional vibrations, etc this book would be great for you. If you're looking for a diet plan that will ease your body into regularly eating large amounts of raw food, but not completely push you into "raw foodism" and take the weight off at the same time, then her first book is what I suggest.
Good book, nice recipes, and somewhat educational November 12, 2008

I love Natalia Rose. I think she is a bit extreme, and I do not agree with all of her recommendations and the strict theories of food combinations but I must admit that when do you follow her regimen, you feel and look incredible. The recipes are very good, especially her ginger honey salad dressing. I do recommend it if you are starting or exploring a raw diet.

I purchased this book 1 week after the birth of my 4th baby. All of my kids are under 4 and I wanted a book that would provide information on how to live my best life through diet and exercise. I am on the 18th day of the 21, although I will continue the diet for as long as it feels good to me. I wake up every morning very tired (newborns will do that to you), yet after my green lemonade (recipe in book) I feel so full of life. I actually crave this drink and make it for my husband which he drinks grudgingly but does it because it makes him feel good. My 2 year old enjoys it too.
For me it has taken all this time to really wrap my head around the "quick exit food combinations" and I could see how maybe someone who is looking for a quick and easy weight loss book might find it difficult. Food combining is a new concept to me and although very simple it is new and took time to learn.
I have thought about going raw before but all the dehydrators scared me and I never wanted to try after reading a few pages of a raw book. This book has very easy recipes and requires no dehydrating or soaking. It does take time to prepare fresh things (like salads) but I personally enjoy that type of prepping. I do spend a fair amount of time at the market buying fresh fruit and veggies (this diet requires a lot of them) but I look at it as something I am doing for myself and that feels good. It is also ok to eat cooked meals on this diet and even meat. I eat cooked fish for dinner several times a week.
I have lost 5 pounds and 4 inches off my waist so far. But best of all I feel great and I have more energy to take care of my kids (who try to suck the life right out of me). I bought Natalias other book which I have also enjoyed reading. I use the two books inter-changeably.
I should also add that before this book I was heavily addicted to any type of baked good and ice cream. I went 10 days without really missing them and then at a bday party broke down and ate more chocolate cake then a person should. But after the cake I felt like crap and I realized that I prefer the way I feel and look when I eat healthy and delicious fresh foods. I think being thin feels better then chocolate cake tastes. I am sure I will still eat cake once in a while but while strolling past the fresh baked muffins at the market I was happy to not feel the pull toward it and thought about how it would feel vs. how it would taste. (This is huge for me!)
Lastly, people keep commenting on how great my skin looks and how well rested I look. I know this is due to the fresh, high vibrating foods I am consuming and have to laugh because believe me, I am far from rested.
