Deliciously Raw

When you hear the phrase "raw food" I hope that visions of meat and milk are not the only ones that come to mind.
Actually, the term "raw food" refers to foods that have not been heated above 118 degrees, thusly retaining vital enzymes and nutrients. The ideal diet for optimal health consists of 80% raw foods and 20% steamed or cooked. (Animal products and not included on a raw foods diet.)


There is more to this diet than just salad, you can be extremely creative with this type of cuisine. You can eat better than you ever have in your life, you will feel better than you can ever remember and live in a state of well being feeling energized and replenished. The very reason we eat is for energy, to sustain our being.
When we eat foods on a regular basis that have been cooked, after consumption of these foods we experience tiredness and lethargy sets in. This is a direct result of our bodies working hard to digest this enzyme deficient food, pulling vital enzymes from our cells to digest.


I want to turn you on to how delicious raw foods can be. I want you to experience the euphoria and heightened level of consciousness that comes from eating living foods.
We make fresh living foods daily at Sweet Pea. If you are someone who wants to eat well but are on the go a lot, or someone who does not have the time, or you are accommodating visitors. Our organic build your own salad bar features a rainbow of nutrients featuring fresh greens, a verity of vegetables, Kim chi, nuts and seeds, fresh fruit and sprouts. We are the Valley's only organic juice and smoothie bar.


We make live chia pudding, raw cheezy broccoli, living coleslaw, guacamole, nut pates, living salsa and more for our grab and go cooler. Our deli offers a raw sandwich, and our bakery makes many raw delicious treats.


Our store carries everything a raw foods enthusiast would ever need. If you want to improve your health, and want to enjoy conversations about the topic, come and see us!!
We enjoy providing an educational, comfortable and supportive environment when it comes to real good food!!
