Raw Food Diet-What Brought Me To This Lifestyle?


 Leave a Comment Written by admin

 

So what brought me to a raw food diet? Well, I thought about all the diseases that are endemic in the western world at the present time – cancer, diabetes, heart disease – and their reduced levels in tribal communities and cultures we regarded as more ‘primitive’ than our own, evolved into our disastrous self-destructive habits.

I thought about the animal kingdom, where these diseases are largely unknown – except amongst those we have exploitatively farmed for our needs, or domesticated as pets to be fed an unnatural and processed diet.   I realized that a raw food diet and weight loss could go hand in hand.  I wanted to see if there really were healthy recipes for weight loss.

I realized how many different industries and sectors in the world economy had a vested interested in keeping things manufactured, farmed, cooked and processed, so that other industries could also make money offering pharmaceuticals to fix us up, to make it all look and taste better, and more ironically to ‘help’ us all to diet and lose weight!

Health transformations
Some of the stuff I was reading was pretty extreme-feeling – I reckoned I’d always had a healthy skepticism about conspiracy theorists, and reckoned I was immune from all that kind of stuff.  But I ended up reading Kevin Trudeau’s book Natural Cures They Don’t Want You To Know  - I wasn’t the kind of person who reckoned ‘they’ were out to control the world and shut down opposing voices, but a lot of this stuff Trudeau was just plain correct about.

For example, I had a lot of problems with heartburn and acid reflux – and quite honestly, the amount of green stuff I was pushing my unaccustomed digestive system to cope with these days wasn’t helping in that regard, I found a lot of green juices and, upset stomachs, the antacids and the chewies and the endless prescription products that people get told they will have to take for the rest of their life to relieve their symptoms… and how simple food ingredients costing a few cents had simply eliminated the problem for me.  I began to wonder what other health problems might be surmountable in similar, straightforward ways – that made no profit for anyone except the individual freed from the symptoms of disease. Was I becoming a raw vegetarian? How did this happen?!

It’s really was a discovery that lead into a lifestyle. The only problem became the raw food menu plan. I was strapped for time, just like I’m sure you are. I needed to quickly figure out how to make simple raw food diet recipes without investing hours in the kitchen. More on how I accomplished that soon.

Raw Food Diet Recipes-What is Living Food?


 3 Comments Written by admin

 

Living food has a commonsense definition, it is food that’s still alive, i.e. plants that are still growing. Most raw food diet menus tend to omit a lot of living food and this is just not right! Living food can be very easy in incorporate into your raw food diet recipes. So if you have salad growing in your garden, that’s a living food – OK, you pick it before you eat it, unless you want to graze like a ruminant, but at that moment it’s as fresh and alive as can be.

 

Or you can buy lettuce in a health food store still rooted in a compost (if it’s not organic it might be pretty nutritionally bankrupt compost by the time it reaches that refrigerated shelf, but the lettuce is still a living food). But a simple raw food diet should include these types of organic living foods-vegetables still rooted in compost that are still nutritionally alive.

 

Another source of living food would be grains or seeds that you sprout at home, or nuts you soak. It’s important not to omit this stage in raw food preparation even if you can’t see the point from a taste point of view, as a couple of hours soaking completely alters the biochemistry of a raw nut as it starts to germinate and transforms into a truly live food.  Raw food diet meal plans tend to skip this step. Although it can be a hassle sometimes, you do want to incorporate as much living food into your raw food diet as possible.

Raw Food Diet-Digestive Enzymes


 2 Comments Written by admin


One thing you got to understand about a raw food diet and why it’s better for you, is the roleof enzymes in the human body.  There are many delicious raw food diet recipes that will get you all of the enzymes you could ever need.
Well, we’re concerned mainly about the ones in the digestive system here, and they are proteins of specific types.

 

Enzymes are needed for the digestive system to work, they’re necessary to break down food particles in a raw food diet so the body can use them for energy. The human body makes approximately 22 different digestive enzymes which are capable of digesting carbohydrates, protein and fats. For those of you looking for a raw food diet, weight loss this is an extremely important concept.

 

Enzymes act as catalysts in digestion – anyone think back to 6th Grade Chemistry lessons?  That’s right, take a gold star, catalysts are necessary for something like a reaction to take place, while not actually being involved in the reaction themselves.

 

They are made in organs connected throughout the digestive system, from the mouth to the large intestines… they’re like the trigger for the all the stuff that needs to happen, both in the gut and actually throughout the body.

 

So, they don’t get altered during the process of digestion, BUT they do get used up, because they are delicate and unique structures, that the body’s organs produce continuously.

 

If you are really interested in raw foods, I can’t overemphasize the importance of enzymes in food. Without enzymes we die. That’s the truth. You only produce so many of your own natural digestive enzymes. If all of your natural enzymes are used up to try and digest heavy cooked food, the whole raw food detox diet process goes to hell!

 

But if on the other hand you eat raw fruits and vegetables, complete with their own digestive enzymes, your body doesn’t have to work hard at all. The result? You get the full benefits of a raw food diet.
