I am Evelyn Parham. I am a follower of Christ, wife, mother, educator, trained biologist and avid blogger. My personal goal is becoming a Holistic Health Advisor and obtaining my Ph.D. in Natural Health Sciences. I love connecting and inspiring others. I am very passionate about sharing information will help others live a healthier life. If I can help just one person along the way, that would something wonderful.

I was diagnosed with uterine fibroid tumors in 2002, and it wasn't until 2005 that I began researching and understanding the connection between diet and health. My first change began with me adopting a vegetarian diet, but it was always a struggle for me. In 2005, I did my first Master Cleanse and from there, I continued researching and reading more about diet and health.

I joined a group started by Bunny Berry (Raw Fu), back in November of 2008. That's when I began my raw food journey. It hasn't been an easy journey, but it has been a life changing experience.

I have never in my life received as many compliments as I receive now. It feels good knowing that my diet plays a big role in how I feel and look. I weighed 152 lbs back in 2004, but now I weigh what I weighed my junior/senior year in high school (108-110 lbs) Check out my video and see the metamorphosis.

I want you to know that food does mater and it makes a difference in your overall health and well being.

At this time, I eat a high raw vegan diet and I enjoy this way of eating. I have learned a lot about eating a healthy raw food diet and I know there is much more I will learn.

Natural Raw Living is here to inform, inspire, motivate and encourage. You can be a healthier person, but it starts within you.

Let the change and healing begin, one step at a time.

Ignorance is a slow death

Real People Helping Real People Succeed


Have you ever heard the saying, "your eyes are bigger than your stomach?" I was told that all the time when I was little (pun intended). It means you put too much food on your plate to actually eat; the appeal overtakes the reality. The result was always the same, I was full before I finished what was on my plate. As time went on, I started making more room for the food I wanted, and never thought about the stretching that was going on inside my stomach. To counteract all that eating I had a vigorous exercise routine and a false reliance on my youthful metabolism.I never paid attention to what was on my plate, and ate anything I wanted, without a care of how much I was ingesting. All this added up, and eventually what I saw in the mirror was a huge hot mess.

I didn't even recognize myself, and so I conveniently stopped looking in mirrors. Problem solved, or so I thought. A trip to the doctor (I mean why not, it's free) gave me a swift jerk to reality. I have PCOS and what I eat makes a huge difference in counteracting some hereditary health issues.Since I wasn't looking in the mirror anymore, I started looking at the back of food packages for the Nutritional Information. The first week I decided to only focus on how many calories went in my mouth. Boy, oh boy, did I get to know a lot of calories, more than I ever thought. I felt like I could have my own 30 minute segment on TLC. My morning cappuccino, my daily intake of fries, my afternoon iced coffee, my Haitian rice and beans with every dinner, and so on, and so on.

The moment I started writing down my caloric intake and totaling it up at the end of the day I became fearful of what the other numbers looked like. They say ignorance is bliss, but I think that ignorance is a slow death. So when you look in the mirror, are you seeing life or death . . . just remember, What You See is What You Get.

Time for an Upgrade

Real People Helping Real People Succeed!

Wow….I went from a size 18 to a 12…..and I’m still going strong! How did I do it….well it certainly wasn’t easy! If you want permanent results…it won’t be easy. It takes hard work and dedication….BUT believe it or not…it doesn’t have to take a lot of time. The winning equation is simple…..eating right + exercise= a healthy lifestyle. Notice I didn’t say weight loss…this is due to the fact that if you eat right and exercise you get more than just mere weight loss. You get HEALTHY! More energy! Less stress! Nice skin! And an optimal healthy body! Stop the excuses…..like I said …..it doesn’t take a lot of time….just start somewhere! I started exercising by setting a time on how fast I could clean up my house. And trust me….I was darn tired when I finished! Exercise is not a dirty word….you do it everyday…..just walking about is a form of exercise….so I challenge you to a upgrade!

Upgrade your mindset towards nutrition and exercise. Take the steps necessary to achieve your goals. Time your clean up….or when you leave one room run to the next one….get that heart rate up and start burning some of those calories from all that extra food you put in your mouth everyday. You CAN do it!

Shut Up and Do It!

Real People Helping Real People Succeed!

I love it when I hear people complain about one thing or another especially when it is about not reaching their physical fitness goals. Then in the next sentence they talk about how horrible they've been eating and their obvious lack of motivation to achieve the goals to begin with! I just love it!

If you're really motivated and really want to achieve a goal, just shut up and do what it takes to reach the goal! It really is that simple. From the physical fitness perspective, you have to:

· Eat properly (and don't tell me you don't know how to eat)
· Exercise in a way that allows you reach your goal
· Rest so you're muscles can recover and grow back stronger

This is very high level stuff and you have to do this day in and day out if you want to reach your goal. If you don't want it bad enough... first and foremost...don't waste my time. Secondly, don't waste your time. Thirdly, don't waste the valuable time you have left in this life complaining to others about it.

So, if you:
1. Have a goal
2. Have thought really hard why you want to reach that goal
3. Are willing to sacrifice some of your time and energy
4. And there is a deep burning desire to make your goals become reality

...then just shut up and do it!

Until next time, be safe, but work hard!
