At its height, Rawfully Organic served 50,000 people at three different locations in the Houston area and was the largest organic produce cooperative in the United States.[14][21][22] At the food co-op, people ordered their produce in advance then picked up their order after all of it has been assembled into boxes. Order pick-ups occurred at the Houston Arboretum and Nature Center on Tuesdays, at the Nottingham Forest Club on Thursdays, and at the Bissonett location on Saturdays.[23][20] In 2014, a doctor in Houston, Dr. Garth Davis, started prescribing his patients "raw fruits and vegetables." Davis received a grant from the Memorial Hermann Health System and partnered with Carrillo-Bucaram. His patients would pick up their prescription from the Rawfully Organic co-op instead of a pharmacy each week and paid very little for the produce by showing their prescription to the co-op.[24][25][26] In 2016, CBS named Rawfully Organic as one of the top spots to get produce.[27] After almost 11 years of operation, the Rawfully Organic co-op closed its doors in 2017.[13]

After four years of being closed, Rawfully Organic reopened temporarily in April 2020 to help get produce to people who didn't feel safe going to grocery stores during the COVID-19 pandemic. Reopening was also an attempt to revitalize the Houston Farmer's Market that had been failing for some time. However, Carrillo-Bucaram doesn't see Rawfully Organic staying open after the pandemic because there's too much competition from major grocers like Whole Foods.[28][29]

This is a sister company to Rawfully Organic that sells fully raw juices. She founded it in 2013 using a Kickstarter campaign to help cover the cost of the start up. She raised $35,000. She sells cold-pressed fruits and vegetables.[2]

FullyRaw is a website she founded to coach people on how to start and maintain a raw vegan diet. She provides webinars, programs, and in person health coaching.[15] She has done several "challenges" for a period of time where she offers meal plans, workouts, and advice through her website if you pay to join the "challenge."[30]

On January 5, 2016 Carrillo-Bucaram wrote and published a book entitled The Fully Raw Diet: 21 Days to Better Health, with Meal and Exercise Plans, Tips, and 75 Recipes. As the title suggests, the book contains meal plans, workouts, and recipes but it also contains the story of her health journey. The book became a number one seller on Amazon.[14][31][32]

Carrillo-Bucaram has gained much of her recognition from her growing YouTube channels and other social media. She has one million followers on Instagram and has gained more than 90 million views across her YouTube channels.[13][33]

Carrillo-Bucaram has hosted and given speeches at the "Woodstock Fruit Festival" for many years on and off since 2010.[34][35] She also has given talks at the annual "Texas Veggie Fair" for several years since 2013.[36][37][38]
