Nutrition

At Angel Valley, our mission is to facilitate the growth and empowerment of our guests. We feel one of the most important parts of this beautiful process is nourishment. Nourishment comes in many ways. Through fresh air, healing sunshine, pure water, and healthy, quality food, we are given the building blocks to our natural state.

Angel Valley staff focuses on preparing delicious, healthy food, using produce as fresh as possible, brimming with life and love. In knowing that everything has energy patterns, we take great care to prepare the food with love and good intentions.

We have carefully chosen specialty and heirloom varieties of vegetables that add a unique flare and flavor to our meals. Providing fresh, raw foods also provides a missing link that may have a great impact on our physical well-being and spiritual connection. For example, there are many vital nutrients that are only naturally found in fresh garden produce, which disappear shortly after harvest. One of these nutrients is homeostatic soil organisms which play a crucial role in digestion and assimilation of nutrients.

Raw living foods are foods from the earth, organic and are naturally high in vibration because they have not been cooked. These foods include, fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds and sprouted grains with special preparations through blending, chopping, juicing, dehydrating and combining into infinite flavorful combinations. Living foods are high in enzymes, nutrients, and essential fatty acids. Preferably, raw/live food is made from organic ingredients which have been grown in soil that is enhanced with such organic aids as compost, natural rock products, etc… Organic farming produces the purest, most nutritious and natural food because pesticides or other forms of unnatural fertilization are not used.

Angel Valley's Cuisine

Angel Valley offers strictly vegetarian with the option of delicious wholesome vegan or revitalizing raw living foods. Vegetarian is meatless (no beef, chicken, pork, and fish) but does include dairy products and eggs. Vegan means no meat, dairy, or eggs. Raw living food is no meat, dairy, or eggs and the food is uncooked to keep it in its natural raw state.

Angel Valley specializes in international vegan and raw food cuisine and invites our guests to experiment and be open to a new exciting way of eating during their retreat. We take pleasure in presenting meals that excite the senses and please the palette.

Experiencing living foods is an opportunity to give our digestion a break and actually increase our enzyme reserve rather than deplete it. At the cellular level, this creates more room for healing and observing the body’s true needs. Most people may think of raw living foods as an apple or a carrot, naturally delicious but plain and maybe even boring. Not so. There is a tantalizing array of preparations that may be created from the simplest ingredients. The use of colors, flavors, and textures provide a fun and intriguing palette of ingredients to work with. Have you ever tried living lasagna or portabella fajita tacos?

The wondrous world of living foods is a unique approach to eating that has been known to boost overall health and possibly change one’s life. Living foods are an opportunity for restoration and rejuvenation of the body, mind, and spirit. Clients for our “Individual Intense Healing Program” go on a raw/living diet during the time of their stay. People have been amazed at how good they feel after eating raw/living food and how good it tasted.

You may ask yourself why eat raw/live food. The benefits of having more energy, feeling lighter, healthier and totally satisfied are all great, but the bottom line is raw/live food tastes incredibly good. When you’ve tasted, really tasted food in its pure, natural form your taste buds awaken and rejoice.
