Aging Is Not Fair

Now I’m hooked (and kick myself for ignoring you for years)...

Hello Mrs. Zavasta, I firstly have to tell you how much you have inspired me! I have been a part-time vegan for many years but always felt I was lacking something. It wasn’t until I came across the raw lifestyle that I’ve been feeling better. I read many books on the subject but yours is by far the most logical. I also have your facial exercise book.

I went raw 3 months ago, and am so excited about the amazing changes

Dear Tonya, I just wanted to say that I really appreciated your blog post about radiation. I live in Japan, and have no doubt that I’ve had a fair amount of exposure to the radiation already. Seaweed is now one of my favorite foods.

I just went raw 3 months ago, and am so excited about the amazing changes I have seen already, and the changes that I hear will be coming as I am in the middle of reading “Your Right to be Beautiful”!

The Inspiration Factor

Health is the state about which medicine has nothing to say.

— W.H. Auden

I’ve been entirely privileged over the last thirteen years since discovering the raw food lifestyle to have overcome many physical, medical and dental challenges to reach a level of health I never even known was possible. Certainly I’ve had my share of ups and downs and learned many valuable things throughout the course of my journey.

I am always looking for new inspiring material

Thank you Tonya. I've already been enjoying many of your on-line articles and videos. You are very inspiring, and I am always looking for new inspiring material. Have been transitioning since the 1970's when I became a vegetarian at 50%-70% raw and then three years ago gave up the dairy and started the green smoothies and doing about 80-90% raw. Today is my 18th totally raw day. This is the longest I've ever been raw, and it feels so much easier than ever before that I believe at this point, there is no going back.

Thank you so much for helping my health

Dear Tonya, I hope you are doing well.  Because of you I am 75-90% raw since learning about raw foods from you back in 2005.  Thank you so much for helping my health.  I continually am working toward 100% raw.

I have just finished reading Raw Food and Hot Yoga book

Hi, I have just finished reading Tonya’s Raw Food and Hot Yoga book and found it fascinating. I am a Bikram yoga addict myself, and I am trying to find out as much as I can about raw food with a view to at least attempting a semi-raw existence.
