Raw Food Health
Eating a raw food diet for better health and energy
Need more energy? Feel like a mood lift? Want to give yourself greater mind-power and vitality? An organic raw food diet can help you burst into raw food health. Give your body the best food possible by simply adding more organic raw fruits and vegetables to your diet.
A raw food diet is sometimes known as the living food diet. The idea of a raw food diet is that the food you eat is still alive, enzymes and nutrition intact. Your body is then able to use these nutrients more efficiently. The health benefits of raw food diets are numerous; better health and immunity, greater energy, glowing skin and eyes, evenly distributed weight loss, reduced sleep requirements and balanced moods to name a few. Some raw foodists even claim that eating a raw food diet enables them to harmonise on higher spiritual levels.
When I started eating raw I had so many questions about eating an organic raw food diet. I spent hours researching information and reading stories from others on raw food journeys. Then when the results of my raw food health changes became so rapidly obvious to my friends and family, people started asking me questions... I want to share what I’ve learned so I can help other people feel as great as I do, and help save the planet too!
What is a raw food diet?
The raw food diet is more diverse than simply eating vegetables. You can also eat fruit, nuts and seeds, seaweed and sea vegetables, sprouts, flowers, mushrooms, legumes, coconuts and dried fruit. Food is not heated above 46 degrees Celsius (115 degrees Fahrenheit). David Wolfe’s renowned Sunfood Diet Success System recommends the goal for a raw food diet should be at least 80% raw plant foods.
Why the raw food diet?
I found this study by Lenka J. Zajic in “The Iowa Source” to be informative, encouraging and inspiring. It details the health benefits of eating a raw food diet as experienced by over 500 raw foodists surveyed over two years.
