Review by Dr. Douglas N. Graham
Every once in a while a person comes along who changes the
way we look at things. T. C. Fry was one of those men. T. C. has had a bigger
influence on the health and eating habits of the nation than perhaps any other
person. He wrote tirelessly for 25 years, and along the way he taught many who
have followed in his footsteps as best-selling authors in this field. T. C. was
unrelenting in his efforts to get the word out about Natural Hygiene, particularly
since this lifestyle added 25 years of robust health to his life--which he had
never experienced before his discovery of this teaching.
I count myself among the Natural Hygiene authors influenced
by T. C. Others are: Harvey and Marilyn Diamond, famous for their book, Fit for
Life, Marti Wheeler, Dr. Gina Shaw, Prof. Rozalind Gruben (look for her upcoming
book, Raw Nutritional Science), and David Klein, to name just a few.
David takes his mission seriously. T.C.'s influence, both personal
and through his books, helped him overcome a debilitating gastro-intestinal disorder
(ulcerative colitis) in 1984. He has gone on to become one of the world's finest
health educator-writers, spreading a healthy message at every opportunity. YND
is no exception. Within these pages, David has compiled his most insightful "how
to" writings with many of the classic writings of T. C. Fry. Taken out of
context, much of this information might seem unconvincing. Taken together, YND
is a powerful “how to” manual that leaves very little unsaid about creating
and maintaining vibrant health through healthful eating and living practices.
If you are ready to become truly influenced by natural health
sense, YND is for you. If you are interested in achieving top level health, cutting
straight to the chase and replacing your old self-destructive habits with constructive
ones, read this deeply illuminating book. If you want to chew on food for thought
that will challenge your beliefs and encourage you to improve yourself, David
Klein has put together a winner for you.
YND is must reading for any true health enthusiast. In a time
when new health fads and diet programs are a dime a dozen, YND offers timeless
teaching brought to you by two of the world's master teachers of health. YND is
a book for the ages. Read it and enjoy, read it and grow healthier.
Review by Laura Cruger Fox:
Raw Revelation
(formerly entitled Your Natural Diet: Alive Raw Foods)
by Dr. T. C. Fry & Dr. David Klein
What a thorough and worthwhile book! It is a very thoughtful and precise instruction
book regarding the Natural Hygiene live food diet, taking into consideration everything
from the basic design of our bodies as plant eaters to applying somatic therapies
for transforming bad food habits to particular aspects of individual plant foods
to the ins and outs of fruitarianism.
There are lots of unique recipes I had not yet come across, such as Carrocado
Dressing, Liquid Sunshine and Celery Slaw!
David included many resources at the back, and a thorough explanation of the
Natural Hygiene perspective, which basically suggests we should eat the way our
ancestors would have eaten because that is our most natural diet and therefore
the one meant for us.
I like the way spiritual and taoist truths are interwoven into the text. For
me, too, raw foodism is truly a unique and wonderful spiritual experience!
"I would like to thank you heartily for Your Natural Diet:
Alive Raw Foods -- it is having a profound effect on my personal healing. Fundamentally,
I enjoyed having my Western nutritional reality-tunnel blown out of the water!
I was a slave to the "basic five food groups" model, believing myself
to be a "healthy" vegan. However, there was a very small, suppressed
part of me that didn't believe in the diet I ate. Your book awakened that part
of me and gave it a voice! I had been battling the with idea that I was ill in
some way for years. I read your book in one day whilst laying in bed in sick condition.
On that day, I realized what was making me ill and exactly what my suppressed feelings
were. I was practically jumping on the bed by the time my partner got home! That
day was my awaking. It started a transformation in me and I haven't looked back
since. Thank you, sincerely, with all my heart."
