NATURAL HYGIENE
My lifestyle does deviate from the rules of Natural Hygiene at times (you can see that in some of my raw food recipes).

So, I’ve grouped these articles together not because they’re written exclusively from a Natural Hygiene viewpoint but because a fair amount of the material in them has been influenced by my NH studies.24-hour water fast - benefits, preparation, breaking the fast

PLEASE NOTE
Famed living foods writer Ann Wigmore: 'everyone's entitled to change their minds, dearie - even me!' You may well find some articles of mine written some time ago, or sections within e-zines that contain articles that I've linked to, that includes information that contradicts what I'm saying now, or promotes the use of something that seldom, if ever, slips down my gullet nowadays. So...please bear in mind the date of the article. If it's a blog article, perhaps you could let me know - I might choose to 'update' it!
I’ll only be updating this list every few months or so. If you’d like to see the latest articles just after I’ve written them, go to the RawforLife Blog at www.rawforlife.co.uk and subscribe via the Feedblitz panel.
