Robin Williams, Woody Harrelson and Madonna are just a few of his famous clients.

Juliano is chef to the stars and an advocate of the raw food diet. He says that eating only raw living foods will decrease your chances of getting heart disease, cancer and diabetes. He joined Balance Television host Dr. Marla Shapiro and special guest Gunn Sikk to share some recipes from his book, Raw: the Uncook Book.

“You live longer, sleep less, have more energy,” Juliano said. “And you never have to go to a doctor or dentist, ever.”

When asked if he was afraid that any nutrients -- such as lycopene from cooked tomatoes -- might ultimately be missing from following a raw food diet, the passionate Juliano replied, “Impossible.”

“Before fire there was raw and we were here for billions of years on a raw diet so obviously it works,” he said. “Suddenly cooked food has come out and we’re all fat, unhealthy, dying, sick and about to wipe ourselves off the face the earth with nuclear weapons, which are also cooked.”
