Karyn has succeeded in writing one of the most comprehensive vegan nutrition books, which acknowledges the relationship between a healthy body temple and ones inner spirit. Raising a fork of Karyns food is an invitation to a sacred feast that awakens and nourishes the spiritual senses. I thank the Natural World for the sustenance it gives us through her culinary creations.

The first time I walked into Karyns restaurant in Chicago, it was love at first sight. And the food is delicious too! I felt safe, healthy, and fulfilled. This is all due to Karyns vision.

Karyn has no doubt crafted a bestseller with Soak Your Nuts. Her personalized journey into healing has brought even more meaning to her delicious recipes and vibrant theory. I was captivated while reading her story, from her trials of illness and imbalance to her recovery. I was spellbound by her awareness of our current environmental and health crisis as well as her ability to remain positive and hopeful for a better future. She is a vigilant steward of the planet and an inspirational healer. Hers is truly an evolutionary work of creativity, wisdom, and intelligence.

After taking Karyns detox class and following her program, I am more energetic and have better digestion and improved immune function (no colds or flu). During the detox program, I witnessed and was impressed by how many individuals in her class experienced rapid changes in their health. For example, people with high blood pressure were able to lower it, diabetics reduced their need for insulin, and those with digestive problems improved significantly. Karyns program has changed many peoples lives by educating and motivating them to take control of their health.

As a medical doctor, I am impressed by Karyns knowledge, because it is medically sound as well as practical and useful. I followed her program almost 100 percent with unbelievable results, including having energy for eighteen-hour days full of patient, family, and personal responsibilities; no more annoying cravings for sugar; the disappearance of lifelong skin issues; improved clarity of thinking; and increased happiness and confidence.
I also learned about a world of health products I was not aware of. I am particularly impressed by Karyns private-label products. I have confidence in their efficacy and have had great results using them. In fact, I carry her products in my office and often prescribe them to patients. I strongly recommend the use of the Green Kamut Powder, Green Meal Powder, Systemic Enzymes, and Digestive Enzymes. I also encourage my patients to take a detox class.

As a physician well versed in nutrition, I have maintained a healthful lifestyle, so I was somewhat skeptical at the onset about this nutritional journey. I attended Karyns class weekly, and I implemented her doctrine daily as instructed. Her teaching style and methods were relaxed yet pointed. Her explanation of the science of raw eating was sensible and logical. Her conclusions, based on years of formal study and observations in the human laboratory, were reliable. From a nutritional standpoint, all of the elements of a healthful diet can be attained through raw vegan eating because nature in its simplest state provides everything we need to survive.
Throughout the course, many students experienced and openly shared significant health improvements. Illnesses such as arthritis, diabetes, high blood pressure, and joint pain became less symptomatic. I saw my blood pressure decrease significantly, and I lost several pounds. I no longer had doubts about the program. Almost everyone experienced weight loss and felt empowered after gaining control of their health journey and longevity. I highly endorse Karyns classes and her ideals. Through her research and personal experience, she has become one of the foremost experts in this expanding science. I am honored to be her student and friend.

One of the most important things I have learned in my twenty years of trying to help patients improve their health is that to be well, one must nourish well, breathe well, move well, relate well, and detoxify well. I have known Karyn for many years, and I consider her to be one of the best living examples of this philosophy. She has been an inspiration for me and thousands of people who want to feel better. Her vibrance serves as testimony to the benefits of eating living food and avoiding and removing toxins.

I was initially introduced to Karyns raw law twelve plus years ago after having been a practicing dentist for ten years. I was blasted with new information that challenged my myopia, and I found it expedient to reassess some things that I had learned in dental school. Over the years, my personal health and health IQ have continually escalated as the result of meeting this superb teacher, Karyn Calabrese. I have enjoyed personal consultations and detoxification classes, and I continue to detox to this day. During detoxification, I never tire of good news, small miracles, and testimonies. Im elated by testimonies of people who no longer have to take medications.
I have experienced an awakening, and I cant go back. I know too much. As we awaken, we become the people we are supposed to be. Sincerest thanks and gratitude for my ever-growing awakening.
