About Brenda

Brenda Richter is a graduate and certified raw food chef & instructor of Living Light Culinary Arts Institute, a nationally renowned raw food culinary school located in California.  After many years of practicing a raw food lifestyle Brenda shares her raw food creations with her family and friends whether she is the hosting gatherings in her home or going to parties & potlucks.  She has increased her awareness and knowledge of  raw food not only through taking classes, reading many well known raw foods books available, research and attending raw culinary school, but also personally experiencing the benefits by increasing raw foods in her diet.

Growing up I always enjoyed preparing food and took various food classes over the years to expand my knowledge and ability to create wonderful dishes.  In 2003 I met a vendor at a health & wellness fair who was telling people about how she discovered raw foods through her quest to find an alternative means to healing her cancer and the tremendous effects raw food had played in her life as she had opted not to go through the traditional means of chemo and radiation.  Always beiing interested in food and improving my health,  I signed up for the classes she offered along with other raw food classes available in the area over a course of about five years.  As I continued to increase and incorporate more raw foods and meals into my diet I truly noticed a difference in how I felt.  I continue to be amazed on what I have experienced & learned, how my tastes have changed and foods I once loved no longer appeal to me or taste the same.  Many of those unhealthy cravings have also disappeared.  It has become more easier and more desirable to eat raw daily and to replace traditional SAD, (Standard American Diet), dishes.

Thousands of people are finding their way to an optimal healthy life they never thought were possible and this includes all types of people.  Whether a person is young or old, healthy or ill, thin or over weight, they are finding themselves adapting to a raw food diet to either improve their life style and activity or to prevent, stop or reverse illness or dis-ease in the body.  It's simply a great source of healthful living.  Have you ever considered the produce section of the grocery store to be the section of "living foods" and once you leave this department, you enter into the "dead food" section.  Living food is nutritious, regenerating & life giving.  Dead food equals dead energy, lack of nutrition and a direct channel to health problems.  Regenerate your life with raw foods with flair as raw foods includes more than simply juice, smoothies, salads & vegetable sticks.  You don’t have to give up comfort foods, they are possible in the RAW, free from dairy, pasta, meat, flour, cream, butter & eggs.  Imagine your favorites, lucious lasagna or decadent chocoloate mousse pie!

 
I hope to encourage and inspire others to learn more about raw foods, how to incorporate them easily and deliciously into their daily lives and be able to experience the health benefits in great abundance as I have.  Make raw food prep easy, save time and enjoy RAWliciously!
