Initial Praise for Kathy Feldman’s THE RAW CRUNCH DIET and RAW CRUNCH BARS

"Kathy has done a tremendous job of creating an amazing diet plan that works! Her enthusiastic and down-to-earth approach is wonderful. THE RAW CRUNCH DIET is unlike any diet I have ever seen.

First of all, it works!

Secondly, it is actually extremely healthy. And thirdly, it is doable, for life! If you want to lose fat, get healthier and even eat in a way that is more compassionate and better for the planet, then THE RAW CRUNCH DIET is for you!" - Jameth Sheridan, N.D. - Nutritional Research Scientist

"Though I was aware of all the health benefits of raw food and the RAW CRUNCH BARS, I was amazed at how great they taste. The New Jersey Women and AIDS Network provides RAW CRUNCH BARS as a healthy snack alternative to the HIV+ Women they provide services to. Never before have I seen the women we work with eagerly consume such a healthy product. Thanks, Kathy." - Elizabeth Roberts - Health Education Specialist - New Jersey Women and AIDS Network

"Being raw for 14 years, I was excited that Kathy’s RAW CRUNCH BARS appeared 100% raw, but being a gourmet raw food chef I was skeptical about the taste. Well, I was shocked that they were so good! The flavor of these bars is incredible! I am so excited to finally have a fast, healthy, great tasting, all raw bar to promote to my clients!

Whether you’re an athlete, raw fooder or just want to take a healthy snack with you during the work day, the RAW CRUNCH BAR is the best I’ve seen so far!" - Alissa Cohen - Raw Food Chef & Educator

Customer Reviews

More of an advertisement than a diet book
This book is more of an advertisement for Kathy Feldman's crunch bars than a book on raw diets. I would not recommend spending your money on this one.

Don't Waste your Time with this Book
There are better Raw Food Diet books out there. This book barely had any useful information, and I felt it was basically a plug for the author's diet products.

This is how to get raw to appeal to a SAD eater
If the woman on the cover of this book looks familiar, that's because you've probably seen her in one of countless fitness magazines, sporting a winning smile and a fabulous figure. I used to read some hardcore fitness magazines until I realized that the women featured in them had made working out their lives...and I wasn't ever going to go that far. I used to marvel at the strict regimin of low fat, high protein mini meals coupled with intense daily workouts. Being an on-again-off-again raw vegan for years, I used to wonder what they would say about strength training and the raw diet. Well, now there's someone doing it!

When national fitness competitor, model, and personal trainer Kathy Feldman was diagnosed with hypothyroidism causing excessive weight gain, she began looking for new answers to her diet and exercise regimin. She discovered raw foods and learned that she no longer had to over-exercise to keep her lean and strong physique. Kathy recommends an 80% raw diet consisting of fresh juices with Vitamineral Green for breakfast followed by fresh fruits; an early afternoon snack, one of her delicious Raw Crunch Bars; a mid afternoon salad; another Raw Crunch Bar in the late afternoon; and your dinner of choice (cooked). She highly recommends vegan eating, but this is not a strict, boring diet, and it will definitely appeal to the average eater of the Standard American Diet (SAD).

Kathy keeps it simple; this book is short and sweet and explains all the basics of eating raw without getting too deeply into the details of nutrition for those who are anxious to get straight to the information about transforming their bodies. Her background in cellular biology combined with an easy-going writing style make this petite diet manual a real plus to the field of fitness and nutrition. Like Fit for Life, which helped countless people change their eating habits back in the 80s, this book will appeal to anyone wanting to transition to raw foods or just incorporate more raw foods in the diet without going to extremes.

But let me tell you, the real kicker here is that the diet includes her Raw Crunch Bars, which are just to die for. I'm totally addicted.
