Going Raw April 25th, 2007

Raw foods sound very unappealing to a lot of people, except of course for things such as raw fruits. But eating raw foods can be very good for you.

Many people feel that raw foods provide more benefit than cooked foods. This can be debated, but those who believe in it feel that you can gain increased energy, a lower weight, healthier skin, better digestion and a lowered risk of heart disease. Pretty nice if true.

Raw vegetables have a taste that is distinct from the cooked version. You may find that you actually prefer the taste of raw… then again, you might like the cooked version better. Read the rest of this entry »
