raw diet
No cooking allowed
A raw diet consists of uncooked, unprocessed foods—typically fruits, vegetables, nuts, and seeds.
Proponents believe cooking destroys nutrients and enzymes.
For pets, especially dogs, a raw diet means uncooked meat, bones, and organs: She switched her dog to a raw diet.
Also called raw food diet or, for humans, raw veganism when plant-based.
