twins

We are the Pure2raw twins, Lori and Michelle.

We are fraternal twins who share a passion for living life to the fullest and learning new things along the way.

Entrepreneurs that run a gluten free raw bakery.

A quick history

Over the years we started to examine our diets and lifestyles more closely because of our health issues (poor digestion, constipation, depression, hormone imbalance – off birth control, acne, and eating disorder). Here is an update on our health!

We just have learned so much and continue to learn! We are always honest here on the blog of what we are going through and hope we can help someone else!

Our transition was slow, we started off with going gluten-free, which then lead us vegan and finally to raw foods. We were intrigued by the raw foods lifestyle. Hoping it was the answer to heal our bodies.

This new lifestyle only further deepened our interest in nutrition and food as a way of healing.

Thought we would feel great…but did not.

Continuing on with our journey, we have discovered so many healthy new things like…juices, avocado puddings, green smoothies, chia seeds, hemp seeds, and much more! We have done so many cleanses, even a few candida cleanses, and most recently an elimination diet.

Through more trial and error and education, we have realized we do best with both worlds – cooked and raw foods! We are no longer vegans.

Most recently we have added local eggs and fish back into our diet, occasionally. As we still have a strong foundation in a plant based diet that is full of greens, sea vegetables, superfoods, and fermented/cultured foods.

We are open to everything. Love exploring new foods.

Looking back we are grateful for the journey we went on. We have learned to love food differently. See food as nourishment not as the enemy, which helped us with our eating disorders and our obsession of food and health.
