I don't, but Carol Alt has a beginner's guide to the raw diet:
Eating in the Raw: A Beginner's Guide to Getting Slimmer, Feeling Healthier, and Looking Youngerthe Raw-Food Way
Alt, Carol
Carol Alt is among the vanguard of Americans, as many as a million in number, who have discovered that eating foods in their raw state can keep you feeling and looking great. As Carol has learned and explains here, we evolved eating a primarily raw diet, so our bodies perform optimally with raw food as fuel. By eating foods that have not been chemically altered by heat, the body is able to retain more vitamins, minerals, enzymes, and nutrients we need. The raw food approach, however, does not call for an all-or-nothing, extreme lifestyle change. There is a continuum, not only in how much of your diet is raw, but in how much you cook your food. Eating in the Raw shows you how to ease into this new way of eating. It also provides 40 recipes that leave no doubt about how delicious the raw food approach can be. Carol Alt is passionate about the immediate and long-term benefits of a raw food diet, from having more energy to avoiding serious illness. With Eating in the Raw, she uses all of her supermodel charisma to get the ball rolling on the next big dietary movement.

Re: anyone follow the raw food way of eating?
my brother is a vegan, and now follows a vegan raw diet. It is easier for him because he manages a vegan restaurant so has access to the different foods.

You know I think they do cook some foods, but not hotter than a certain temperature because they say that it kills all the good nutrients or something like that.

East Village 1st ave and 6th. It is really good. But DH says it is a waste of money since the food goes right through your system cleansing it, the food never leaves the restaurant
He has a lot of celeb clients. When I eat vegan, all bloat in my stomach disappears

Re: anyone follow the raw food way of eating?
About the raw food thing. A lot of raw food vegans eat that way because of a spiritual sense that it's better to eat something that's alive rather than something dead. That consuming life is better than consuming death.
