Who can benefit!
We can all afford to eat a healing diet with more raw fruits and vegetables, and here’s the primary reasons why …
While you might think otherwise, cooked foods are usually harder to digest than raw foods, plus cooking nutrient-dense foods tends to destabilize some of their valuable enzymes and destroy certain antioxidants and vitamins. Raw foods also help alkalize the body, reduce acidity, and have less of a chance of fermenting in the gut and causing inflammation/autoimmune reactions. This applies to all of us, but some people who can especially benefit from eating more raw foods include those with:
cancer
heart disease
high blood pressure and high cholesterol
osteoporosis
kidney disease
gallstones or gallbladder disease
Parkinson’s disease
autoimmune disorders
food allergies
fatigue
joint pain
muscle aches and pains
headaches
PMS
hormonal imbalance
trouble with weight gain/obesity
