Eating Raw food

Why should we eat raw foods?
If we cook our food more than 118 degrees F, any where from three minutes are longer, it protein becomes crystallize, the sugars become caramelized and the natural fibers is impaired. This simple means our food will take longer to move through our intestines, it lose 30/50% of its minerals and vitamins, and enzymes are destroyed 100%. When we eat cooked food it absorbs the body enzymes potential and our energy level declined, energy that we need to repair and maintain our tissues and organs and it also shortens our life span


Researchers has found that when we put extremely hot foods into our stomach it can cause cancer. They also said that heating any food destroy much of its vitamin, minerals and protein contents and it creates poisonous inorganic acids. The all uncooked diet is more healthful and beneficial! Health institutes researchers also said, that, “we should not cook our food,” because during what may seem to be a harmless action vital enzymes are destroyed,proteins becomes harder to digest. Vitamins are mostly destroyed with what left of it changing into forms that are hard for the body to adsorb,pesticides are reconstructed into even more toxic combination.

We all do have a tendency to want to sleep after eating a cook meal, when we eat a raw food meal it does not leave us tired. With raw foods it require less total sleep and you gain a more restful sleep, more energy and vitality.  Yuri Elkaim is the author of the book eating for energy, if your are seeking for more energy and optimal health and want to know more about a raw food diet, you would want to check out his book on eating for energy.

Foods That Give Us Energy

Foods That Give Us Energy

It's really unfortunate that the vast majority of the population turns to stimulants instead of looking to whole foods for a boost of invigorating energy. I guess part of the problem is that humans are generally lazy and would rather take the "magic pill" to fix all their problems.But when it comes to having more energy the irony is that the stimulating foods such coffee, sugar, and energy drinks actually fatigue your body in the long run. Sure they give you a quick jolt of energy but then their real effects are felt as they wear down your adrenal glands, disrupt your blood sugar, and create a huge crash after the initial high. Essentially they are drugs. They are not foods that give us energy.Ok, then, what are some natural foods that will give you long-lasting energy?Well, you may want to consider that no single food will give you more energy than your overall diet. Sure you could add in some of the energy foods I describe below, but if your diet is horrific to begin with, then you will not see the sustained level of energy that you want.Instead of searching for "miracle" energy foods your goal should be to eat a diet that consists of foods that are vibrating at higher energies. This means eating more raw living foods. When a food has not been cooked, it maintains its natural energy properties (not to mention all of its other nutrients). Thus, when you eat raw foods, you're giving your body direct energy from the ultimate source - the sun - as most of these foods will be plant-based, and the sun is where they get their energy.The closer you eat to the bottom of the food chain, the more nutrition and energy will you acquire. Think about it - it takes more of your energy to digest animal meat than it does to digest a green vegetable, right? Plus, this green veggie will have the maximum amount of living energy versus a dead animal carcass.Thus, to have more energy, you need to follow a high energy diet. After that, you can start to knit pick and see which specific foods give you more energy, if at all.To help you get started, here is a list of some my favourite energizing foods:- wheat grass - if you haven't tried wheat grass then you're missing out on some big time energy and nutrition. Growing it and juicing yourself can be a bit of a pain but you can easily get a "shot" at most health food stores or juice bars. 1 oz of wheat grass juice packs more nutrition than 2.5 lbs of green leafy veggies!- raw cacao (nibs or powder) - incredible source of magnesium, antioxidants, and life force. These give me a natural high that can last for hours without the subsequent like you would get from coffee and caffeinated beverages.- goji berries - another incredible source of antioxidants and polysaccharides that improve cell-to-cell communication. I actually combine these with my raw cacao nibs and complementary tastes work really well together.Remember that although these foods provide incredible nutrition they are the like the healthier version of coffee and other quick fixes. The key still remains to follow a raw foods diet, as much as possible, that will provide you with tons of life force, alkalinity, and nutrients to help your body thrive.
