Hello Tonya,
I've written to you in the past and was very pleased to see one of my questions answered in your latest book [Raw Food and Hot Yoga].
Thanks for the inspiration. I feel compelled to write to you again, not to ask a question but to share some revelations I've had by eating more of raw food.

I was emailing a friend of mine yesterday telling her of my goals and I realised that these now seem possible because of you and not only that but I could also see that you have made me believe that I can shoot for the stars! This is motivating me to change more than anything.

Dear Tonya, There is quite a bit of hipe about longevity and anti aging in the raw food community. I looked a bit at one short interview. I don't understand, haven't people read your book 'Quantum Eating'? ... I mean you are a living proof of what you teach in your books. I live in Sweden and don't know much of what goes on in the US, even though if I was on some sites/ chat sites I probably would know more than I do now, but this was my personal feeling.

Dear Tonya, I enjoy reading your monthly Beautiful on Raw newsletter. I am having a hard time convincing myself that I could actually go on the raw food diet. I am 52 years old and have eaten the way of most American's my entire life. I almost feel like I would have to be diagnosed with cancer in order for me to change the way I eat. My family all eat the same way I do and see no reason to change, which makes it harder for me to change my eating habits. I don't want to have the illnesses of aging that I see my parents suffering with. That in itself should be enough to motivate me.

A vaccination is the administration of antibody-generating material to produce immunity to a disease. Vaccines—in some cultures, at least, are ubiquitous. Most children in the USA, you may already know, are injected with 23 different vaccinations before reaching the age of two.
Raw Food Lifestyle
Winter’s long shadows and gray afternoons bring many of us to ‘kitchen gardening’ to meet some of our raw food nutritional needs. This means, among other things, sprouting. There are many advantages, both in health and in economics, to sprouting your own seeds, grains and legumes.
We in America are eating ourselves to death, as a society. Change is desperately needed. But the change won't come, can't come, overnight. And that's true not only for our whole society, but for each individual.

Raw Food LifestyleConcerns over the safety and quality of tap water have driven health-conscious consumers to bottled water in the effort to avoid pollutants and chemical byproducts increasingly showing up in household water supplies. I am always asked what water is the best.

You owe it to yourself, and to your audience, to look your best. I am NOT about "Dress for Success." That's old hat, and you want to hear something new. Mark Twain said: "Clothes make the man. Naked people have little or no influence in society." However, I want to talk about something your clothing CANNOT conceal. I'm talking about your health. Your health as it shows--and it WILL show, whatever you're wearing. The bottom line: I want to talk to you about how you look as a speaker.
