Review of Alissa Cohen – The Raw Food Diet

Alissa Cohen Living on Live Foods

"Everybody knows Cohen". As an internationally recognized author, speaker, raw food chef and consultant, Alissa Cohen is a one woman Raw Foodist Enterprise. She has enough clout and name recognition in the "raw foodist" niche to get away with having her website domain be her real name AlissaCohen.com.

Alissa first gained some notoriety from TV appearances promoting her book, "Living on Live Food". The book has been well accepted in North America, Canada, England, Australia, and other English speaking countries. Equipped with her book filled with raw food diet recipes, people might feel better prepared to investigate how to start a raw food diet.

Her book, personal appearances, teaching, and now her website, have continued to keep her raw food mission in the limelight. Alissa’s endeavors are all about an all raw food diet, and eating a raw food diet.

Until recently, Alissa also personally taught or mentored others teaching raw food classes for three levels of certification in her Living on Live Food Program. Cohen also is a restaurateur, and a pioneer in the the Raw Food Restaurant business with her first offering, The Grezzo Restaurant, located in the historic North End of Boston. Grezzo is billed as Boston’s premiere 100% raw organic vegan restaurant.

Alissa Cohen has many passions, all related to healthy living, including her own clothing line, "Live Juicy Eat Raw" made of Fair Trade Organic Cotton.

One thing that is odd about raw food cookbooks, is that there is no cooking involved in preparing raw food meals. Maybe they should be called un-cookbooks, or anti-cookbooks. Another brain twister for some people is why you need to go to the trouble of making raw food look like conventional cooked foods. Maybe it has to do with some notion of haute cuisine, or making raw food more palatable to the masses of non foodists.

New raw foodies may take some time actually getting used to the idea of "raw food cookbooks" and devoting time to raw food recipes, mostly getting by on the staples of raw fruits and vegetables at first. However, once you get your raw foodist stripes and are in a groove, this may be the first raw food cookbook you want to look at buying to have in your kitchen. Follow the tasty looking banner link at the bottom to shop at Alissa Cohen’s website for just about anything related to a rad food diet.

The Alissa Cohen website is also a treat on the eyes, well organized, and packed with useful information. This is the first of the raw food reviews devoted to a multi-faceted raw foodist that has combined passion, some obvious talent, and marketing savvy into several thriving businesses related to the raw food movement. In my secret life Cohen is exactly the way most raw foodists see themselves, living the raw food lifestyle and not shy about telling the world about it.
