What Is a Raw Food Diet?

It is a way of eating that involves a huge dietary increase in the number of unprocessed and uncooked fruits and vegetables, as well as seeds, nuts, grains (mostly sprouted) and beans. A food is considered raw if it is uncooked or ‘prepared’ below 116degrees farenheit. Food prepared above the temperature range begins to lose its essential nutrients and enzymes, or its ‘vital life force’.
