This book is about the new breed of superfoods that are unique to the West in the 21st century. But these are foods that most of us are familiar with, and if you are not then there are plenty of books out there that do cover them. I was tempted to include avocados and olives, buckwheat and oats, all foods I eat on a daily basis. There are many amazing foods I have omitted from this book, foods that are more commonly recognized as superfoods: vegetables like broccoli, kale and cucumbers, fruits like cranberries, blueberries and grapefruit, sprouts like lentils, sunflower or alfalfa. Many of them are sacred plants in their countries of origin. They have a magical energy that comes not only from the synergy of their nutritional composition but from the way they are grown, the lands they are from, their history. But more often with these foods it is their synergistic properties. Sometimes, it is a particular nutrient you have been lacking. These are the foods that I have been craving, that my body has been missing my whole life. Yes, they cry in unison, Yes, these are the foods that I have been waiting for. There are certain foods that when you eat them, your body is in heaven, your cells start singing, your mind becomes ecstatic. Photo by Suki Zoe What is Raw Magic? There are some foods that have the power to change your life. If you think you should have been on this list and I omitted you, you’re probably right I did so for the sake of brevity, not because I don’t love you. These are a few of the people I am blessed to know and be inspired by: Reuben, Ethan, Zachary, Chris, Dani, Hudro, Red & Dan, Amy, Solla, Ani, Tonya, Ysanne, Annie, Urduja, Boris, Anna, Julia, Caroline, Nicolas, Erica, Soren, George, Jónsi & Alex, Alfred, Benji, Gilles, Charlie, Amelia, BA, Jo.
