A lot of people believe that raw food is the healthiest way
to go. This practice is also known as Raw Foodism or Rawism. Like the name
implies, this is a practice of eating only raw foods such as raw fruits,
grains, and raw vegetables. Food items in a raw food diet should be uncooked
and unprocessed. Usually, these are what most people call organic foods. This
is said to be a much healthier of eating food as heating the food causes loss
of nutrients. There are also some studies that prove how cooking can make the
food harmful for a person. A raw food diet will ensure that a person will eat
food that are safe to eat and with all its vitamins and nutrients intact.
Some people choose to go on raw food diet for three possible
reasons.
- Weight loss
- Better health
- Environmental causes
Does Raw Food Diet
work?
Although the nutrients of food items usually found in the
raw food diet, there are usually questions about this diet being a good one for
weight loss. There are also questions about the suitability of such diet for
people with busy schedules and for people who are always in a hurry. Instead of
using the microwave, food preparation is usually done using blenders,
dehydrators, and food processors. These are processes that are as quick as when
microwave ovens are used, yet produce healthier dishes!
People who go into raw food diet have a good chance of
losing weight. The fact that food items in this kind of diet contain low
calories, low sodium, low fats, and high fiber makes it a lot better when measuring
these against what they eat before this diet. These food items are usually rich
in vitamins and nutrients too. This is perfect for busy people to keep them in
shape and in their best condition to work and perform their daily tasks.
