Eating Raw Foods Is Easy And Effective

Eating raw foods as only part of your diet will never yield the benefits of a full, or high raw diet, but raw foods in any proportion can make a major nutritional difference. Raw fruits and vegetables yield up a full compliment of vitamins and minerals like nothing else can.

Cooked foods, including cooked fruits and vegetables, are nutritionally deficient becuase their vitamins, minerals, enzymes, coenzymes, proteins, and fats are damaged by the heat that cooks them.

What remains is the calories, so we get the maximum amount of calories with a compromised nutritional package. This food cannot sustain us in health without at least some raw fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds, and the more the better.

If you're not willing to start a full raw food diet yet, I would suggest a diet that is at least 70 percent raw calorically. Over time, you'll likely start to feel that the cooked food you eat is bringing you down and continuously decrease the amount you eat.

Eating raw foods can only be beneficial.

When people consume raw foods for much of their diet, the rest starts to look lackluster and make them feel poorly.
