John Kohler has been on the living and raw foods diet since 1995. He turned to living foods for healing from a life-threatening illness (spinal meningitis) and has enjoyed dynamic health ever since. One of John's goals is to educate the world about the power of living and raw foods. He is the founder and webmaster of the largest living and raw food website on the internet, www.living-foods.com, and www.rawfoodsupport.com. John also owns and manages www.discountjuicers.com and is the number one expert on rawfoods appliances and gadgets in the world.

 

His latest projects are teaching others to grow their own food at home www.growingyourgreens.com and sharing his raw food teachings on his video blog at www.okraw.com. His Growing Your Greens site has over 280,000 subscribers. John has been growing food for over 12 years. In 2009, he expanded his garden to include his front yard in his 6,000 square foot suburban lot and filmed the process of converting his yard from consumer to producer. His entire property is now dedicated to the production of edible plants. John’s transformation of the property created his own “personal grocery store”, where he grows 90-95% of the vegetables he eats. He says, “Every American should have started growing their own food yesterday.” John's videos explain how to grow food indoors and out.

In the first video below, John explains 12 reasons why growing your own food is so important.
