“Karyn has succeeded in writing one of the most comprehensive vegan
nutrition books, which acknowledges the relationship between a healthy
body temple and one’s inner spirit. Raising a fork of Karyn’s 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.”
Michael Bernard Beckwith

The first time I walked into Karyn’s 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 Karyn’s vision.

owner, John Salley Foods; former NBA star
“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.”
Juliano
author, Raw: The UNcook Book
“After taking Karyn’s 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. Karyn’s program has changed many
people’s lives by educating and motivating them to take control of their
health.”
Dorothy Anasinski, DDS
“As a medical doctor, I am impressed by Karyn’s 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 Karyn’s 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.”
Lorene Wu, MD, Dipl. Ac.
“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 Karyn’s 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 Karyn’s 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.”
William D. Yates, MD, FACS
“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.”
Carlos M. Reynes, MD
“I was initially introduced to ‘Karyn’s 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. I’m elated by testimonies of people who no longer have to
take medications.
I have experienced an awakening, and I can’t 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.”

To my son, Secondino “Dino” Giuseppe Calabrese
1970–2008
In one of the stars I shall be living. In one of them I shall be laughing, and so it will be as if all the
stars were laughing when you look at the sky at night.
ANTOINE DE SAINT-EXUPÉRY, THE LITTLE PRINCE
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us.
We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented,
fabulous?
Actually who are you not to be?
You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world.
There is nothing enlightening about shrinking so that other people
won’t feel unsure around you.
We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us.
It is not just in some of us; it is in everyone.
As we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people
permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically
liberates others.
