Following A Natural Diet - Eating Raw Foods
The natural diet is also known as the raw food diet and this diet consists of mainly eating uncooked foods. These foods include dried fruit, nuts, sprouts, beans, vegetables, unprocessed plant foods, grains, seeds and seaweed. The vast majority of the food should be eaten raw.
The idea behind the natural diet is that if you cook food above 116 degrees Fahrenheit the enzymes in the food that help you digest the food are destroyed. Heat also will decrease the nutritional value of the food as well as the "life force" of the food.
Those that use the natural diet experience increased energy, an easier time digesting, improvement in their skin, an easier time losing weight and it can help decrease the risk of developing heart disease. The natural diet is so healthy because the foods involved do not contain any saturated fats or Trans fat, which are harmful to the body.
The foods that are traditionally eaten in the natural diet include unprocessed natural foods, grains, fresh vegetables, young coconut milk, seaweed, beans, nuts, legumes, freshly juiced vegetables and fruits, fresh fruits, seeds, dried fruit and purified water. These foods should be eaten as whole foods, raw and if possible organically grown.
There are some cooking techniques you can use to make some of the foods easier to digest and this can also add a little variety to your meals. You can juice fruits in vegetables instead of eating them whole, you can dehydrate food, you can sprout grains, beans and seeds, you can soak dried fruit and nuts and you can blend.
Unlike most popular fad diets the natural diet does not have any harmful side effects. This diet will get rid of any toxin build ups in your body and the side effects are related to these toxins leaving your body. Most of these side effects include feeling tired, having nausea, mild headaches and specific food cravings. However these symptoms will go away in a few days. - 17273
