In the spirit of making your life easier, this article will focus exclusively on a select five types of equipment that streamline raw meal preparation, as well as certain high-end notable products within each field.

Knives are an indispensable implements that are essential to truly any kind of meal preparation.

VitaMix is considered the highest pinnacle of the blender industry and is lauded great praise by the raw foodist community. The company Blendtec is another competitor which sells blenders that have many documented satisfied owners.

Food processors do the same thing as blenders in terms of breaking down and mixing ingredients, but behave differently and are typically applied towards different materials than blenders. Nonetheless, it is good to have a quality processor on hand as well. Cuisinart is a brand often praised within the raw community for turning out quality processors.

Dehydrators are another indispensable accessory because they create variety in the raw diet that is necessary if you hope to maintain it long-term. Dehydrators dry out your creations so you can make assorted types of raw "baked" goods. Of the most celebrated brands, Excalibur dehydrators receive a noteworthy volume of praise from satisfied owners who believe the high price tag is money well spent and a definite investment.

Juicers, last of all types of tools to be examined, are one more item of raw food equipment frequently found in a raw foodist's kitchen. They synthesize fresh juice to be consumed alone or to be used in cooking. Tribest's Greenstar and SoloStar models are among the most highly praised.
