raw food diet

Nothing gets heated

A raw food diet consists primarily or exclusively of uncooked, unprocessed foods—typically fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, and sprouted grains.

Advocates believe cooking destroys beneficial enzymes and nutrients.

The diet ranges from flexible approaches allowing some cooked food to strict regimens where nothing is heated above about 115°F.

She's been on a raw food diet for three years and swears by it.
