Raw Living Foods Lifestyle
What is the raw living foods lifestyle that I follow?
I follow the Hippocrates Diet/Lifestyle combined with the consumption of fruits. I strive to eat at least 85 % raw each day. this allows a small portion of whole plant foods that have been gently prepared, limiting nutrient loss.
Living raw foods are the most nutritious of raw foods. Foods like germinated nuts and seeds and sprouts are still growing and bursting with vitamins, minerals, enzymes, plant hormones (phytochemicals and nutrients), and oxygen. The raw living foods lifestyle that I follow involves eating fresh, ripe, organic (when possible), fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, sprouts and Rejuvelac. It also incorporates nutrition from the sea in the form of sea vegetables. Green juices and fresh wheat grass juice are two of the more important elements in this diet/lifestyle. They are the nutrient powerhouses that fill me with the energy and vitality I need.
If you can cut, chop, slice, soak, and assemble simple recipes you are well on your way to vibrant health too. It makes good sense to consume raw living foods, from an economical standpoint, because you aren't contributing to the accumulation of waste by consuming processed products that require fancy, unnecessary packaging. Take care of yourself and your planet by making wise choices in regards to your diet and lifestyle. Start out slow by eating a minimum of sixty percent raw. Remember it's not about cutting out, it's about adding in more of the raw foods. The decrease of processed foods in your diet will happen automatically as you make wiser food choices. When and if you can add more than sixty percent you are doing yourself a great favor. Some of the benefits I have experienced are: increased energy, absence of migraines, no more food related hives, better skin tone, weight loss, mental clarity ("mommy brain" is gone), and a general sense of well being and gratitude. I have a more positive attitude about food preparation. It is no longer just another chore for me it is a joy. I feel good knowing I am eating the way nature and God intended. I encourage you to give it a try for 10-12 days and watch the benefits begin to surface. I'm sure you will be very pleased and amazed with the rewards. Peace and Happy Raw Eating.
