Raw Eating: Or a New World Free from Diseases, Vices and Poisons

by Arshavir Ter Hovannessian

In 1978, I first read Arshavir Hovannessian's book, Raw-Eating. This inspirational work was one of the most influential forces in moving me to a raw diet. Mr. Hovannessian had two children die because of the diet they consumed. He writes, "My children died of the gradual emaciation and wasting away of all their organs caused by unnatural feeding and poisonous medicines." All of this could have been prevented! One of the reasons that we continue to become sick is because society is addicted to cooked food. We cannot help but to crave the taste of cooked food. When food is cooked, the genetic make up of the food is compromised; therefore, the nutritional value is compromised. God showed us in Genesis 1:29, that all things are provided for us. Arshavir Hovannessian show us through his own tragic story and his subsequent research that by following his plan, we will lead a long life, free of diseases. My original copy of "Raw Eating" has dog-eared pages and has become quite tattered. I still refer to it often for inspiration and confirmation that the right diet is the cure for all diseases. I have tried for years to find Mr. Hovannessian to obtain more copies of his book. Unfortunately, all attempts have been unsuccesful. However, I found his mesage to be so necessary that we at Hallelujah Acres decided to reprint this classic. Raw-Eating was written 40 years ago. Imagine how our world would be today if everyone changed their vicious habits then. I encourage you to read this book from cover-to-cover and to pass it on to everyone you know. sread the message that you don't have to be sick! -- From Preface by Rev. George Malkus

This is the first real gem I’ve come across that I’ve truly embedded in my life. I not only read the book but also experimented with this raw food diet for 50 days. I lost about 12 kg during this period, and not only did my skin clear up, but my dark circles disappeared, and I felt an energy I had never experienced before. My resting heart rate even decreased.

The book suggests that the majority of diseases humans suffer from can be addressed through the diet it outlines. While it may seem questionable by modern medical standards, I tried the diet myself, and it truly works wonders. For those interested in a similar book backed by scientific research, I recommend HOW NOT TO DIE by Michael Greger. Additionally, applying principles from *Colon Health* by Dr. Norman W. Walker complements this approach—enemas to cleanse the colon and is essential if actively fighting a disease while following the diet.

I’m now planning to try the raw food diet for 90 days to observe its long-term benefits.
