So many of
us get overwhelmed when we think of the words “Raw Diet “. But today I am here
to help you understand some of the importance of these words and how to simple
incorporate “Raw Foods” into your everyday life.
First lets start by understanding what RAW means. A lot of people
get nervous when they hear this, but this word is simpler then you think. Raw
simply means “unprocessed and uncooked”. Some examples of raw foods are all raw fruits and vegetables, nuts
and seeds, sprouts, roots, root vegetables and squashes, fresh herbs, raw
spices, and seaweeds.
Why is this important
in a diet? As soon as you cook your food (anything over 115 degrees) and add
things to it, it takes away its nutritional value and eliminates certain
minerals and vitamins that you need.
Some other benefits to a raw diet are Increased energy, clearer skin, weight loss, reduced
risk of disease. This is because raw food contains fewer trans fats and saturated
fat. Raw foods are also low in sodium and sugar and high in potassium,
magnesium, folate, fiber, vitamin A, and health-promoting antioxidants. These
properties are associated with a reduced risk of diseases such as heart
disease, diabetes, and cancer.
So next time
you make a meal try adding one raw food item and watch as you become more energized and feeling you absolute best.

recipe to help you prepare a RAW meal…super super yummy!
