At age 20, Paul Nison was diagnosed with inflammatory bowel disease (also know as Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis), a deadly affliction.
His search for a cure began with medical doctors, but they didn't have the answers he needed. After trying almost every so-called cure to overcome his pain and suffering, Paul finally discovered the benefits of eating more simply. Simplifying his diet was the first step in his cure. After turning to a more simple diet called "the raw food diet" consisting of just that, raw foods, Paul was amazed at how quickly his health returned. He was even more amazed because doctor's told him raw foods would not help his condition. In fact, they warned him by saying a diet of raw fruits and vegetables would be harmful to anyone with inflammatory bowel disease.
His return to health and a simpler life was just the beginning of a path that would bring him to question the connection between today's fast-paced urban lifestyle and the sadly diseased state in which so many people find themselves.
Paul's extensive research on the topic of health and diet led him to write three books on the topic of raw foods and health, "The Raw Life: Becoming Natural in an Unnatural World, and Raw Knowledge Parts 1 and 2. The main focus of these three books was interviews with people who have been eating a raw food diet for many years.
Paul developed a strong desire to continue writing and help others suffering from IBD, the disease that once did him in. This led Paul to write his next book, Healing Inflammatory Bowel Disease.
As Paul continued to study, he was led to read the Bible. Where he found a massive amount of health information with the scriptures of the Bible. These Scriptures health scriptures became the topic of Paul's next book, Health According to The Scriptures.
While studying the Bible Paul learned about the ideal times to eat our food, during the daylight hours. This is the topic of Paul's latest book The Daylight Diet.
Paul is on a mission to bring the message of health and healing to the world. His experiences and background in raw food nutrition, along with his study of the Scriptures, have helped him develop a unique teaching style that is fun, simple and to the point. Paul has helped people in several countries achieve their goals while pleasing their Maker.
