Vegan Raw Food Health and Fitness, 80/10/10 Diet by Dr. Douglas Graham

Raw Family - Victoria, Sergei and Valya Boutenko - Raw Food Diet 80 10 10 Diet The 80 10 10 Diet by Dr. Douglas Graham is a raw food version of a low-fat plant based diet, similar to that popularized by Dr. Dean Ornish and Dr. John McDougall. Graham, who is a lifetime athlete, has been eating a raw food diet for almost thirty years and raves about the health benefits from eating according to his method. He has acted as dietary advisor to world-class athletes and celebrities including Martina Navratilova and Demi Moore. Those new to raw foods may struggle with this diet as raw food takes a bit of getting used to. 80 10 10 Diet Basics Graham proposes that the ideal ratio of macronutrients to support health is: 80% carbohydrates10% protein10% fat Other low-fat vegan diets rely on cooked starches such as rice, bread, and potatoes as the main source of calories. Dr. Starches and grains are low in nutrients and because they taste bland we usually add sugar, salt, and fats which compromise their potential health value.
