I loved the variety of recipes and the fact that many of them don't require me to completely restock my kitchen with new accessories and appliances. It is very easy to imagine how good the foods will taste upon reading the descriptions and viewing the vivid photos in the book.
After having had the book for a while, though, and attempting several of the recipes, my major complaint is that some of the recipes were not checked for accuracy/inclusion of all ingredients. For example, the Napa Cabbage Slaw on pg. 130 does not list almonds or carrots in the ingredients, but in the preparation directions it says "Mix cabbages, sprouts, caramelized onions, cilantro, and almonds in large bowl.." and later says "Pour orange-juice nectar into carrot mixture in large bowl..." Other places where this is the case are pages 121 and 125.
In the back of the book, there is the Eat Yourself Sexy! in a Week Menu. Great tool for someone who feels overwhelmed by preparing raw meals. Most of the meals included in the weekly plan were fairly easy to prepare. The one flaw is that one of the items included almost daily on the menu, the Citrus Detox, is a recipe that is not included in the book (or if it is, it is by another name).
I think the book is worth the cost but it could use some updating for accuracy, and a future edition would also benefit from the inclusion of an index. When I was using the Eat Yourself Sexy! in a Week Menu, I had to go through every section of the book, find the recipes, and mark the page numbers on the menu for ease of access.
is a gift. Thank you Queen

Whereas cooking is a wonderful creative outlet and the lifestyle of a chef is important to understand and want to achieve. Lauren personifies this to a great effect, this book takes it the next step from being just a cookbook it could be seen and is a self-help book, environmental and lifestyle book in one (what a bargain-yes it is!) and this helps with guiding you with personal advice for natural remedies, key ingredients and why they are useful and helpful without the confusion, how to detox, ideal spices to replace the nastiness such as sugars and salts, equipment to use, and about exploring the palette.
Within covering a huge ideal of what it means to be healthy, now just instead of being about preparation with food but the epitome of fitness, health and beauty (Sexiness!), caring about your environment in the home and around your community, where you buy food (farmers markets) and helping heal your spiritual to natural well being without being contrived.
This sounds complicated at first if you are coming new into this but the genius of all the book offers, this is laid out in a simple, clean, easy and understandable way for the Lehman to the most complex Raw Foodist Vegans. I would personally ( and I do ) use it as a revision guide when you are ready to eat, drink and prepare yourself for food, the food combining chart is great visually along with many other goodies to relish your eyes on.
It doesn't at anytime preach about being a Vegan either, which is a welcome relief, but with all the suggestions to improve how your body functions which I am sure everyone could welcome after the Xmas mass feast eating, and also even how to overcome when you have had a few too many (Drunk-As-A Skunk Remedy).
I highly recommend this book, anyway I am off to prepare my Kale Salad exotica, Grand Slammin tacos with a desert of Pineapple-Mango Sorbet.
