Raw Food Living
September 7th, 2009 by admin

If you want to feel a difference in your energy, try raw food living.  Remember the old saying, an apple a day keeps the doctor away? This is based on the truth that you really do need your fruits and vegetables for a healthy lifestyle.

What Types of Raw Food Are Included?

Raw food living includes more than just fruits and vegetables.  Nuts, seeds sprouts, grains and seaweed are also included. Since cooking destroys most of the nutrients, food should not be cooked above 116 degrees.

What Are The Benefits?

When you eat a diet consisting of more than 75% raw food, you will notice a change in your general well being.  Some of the benefits of this type of diet include:

  • Increased energy
  • Healthier skin
  • Better digestion
  • Weight Loss

Where Do I Begin?

To start your raw food journey does require some planning.  If you are like most of us, your pantry is loaded with unhealthy, processed food.  The following tips will point you in the right direction:

  1. Take a trip to your wholefoods store and plan to spend some time there.  There are sure to be foods that you have never heard of or seen.
  2. Purchase several ebooks for gourmet recipes.  There are several great cookbooks that can be purchased via Clickbank or Amazon.
  3. Search the internet for organic restaurants and juice bars in your area.  Raw food restaurants are gaining popularity.
  4. Sign up for a raw chef workshop. Learn to cook inviting and healthy meals.

By following these steps and living a raw food life, your body will thank you!
