What are Raw and Living Foods!

Welcome!

Mmm Raw & Living Foods.
There is just so much to talk about on this subject so I shall keep this week's post brief.

As time goes on I will be revealing & highlighting diferent topics that are just so relevant to Living foods. These will include the benefits of incorporating more raw & living foods into your life.

So what are Raw & Living Foods then?
Raw & living foods are food that hasn't been heated above 47C or 105F. This is because you want to keep the maximum nutritional value within the food you eat. Heating food to high temperature destroys most of the nutrtional benefits. The better teh nutritional content of vitamins, mineral & enzymes in the foods you eat then the better you feel within yourself on all levels. You experience more energy, clarity of mind & a greater connection to spirit. Basically your overall quality of life is imrpoves.

Such life promoting foods include what we know of as the basics in life anyway. Fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, sprouts & sprouted grains.

If it has been grown in nature then it is raw, alive & full of goodness.

Eating food with high quantities & quality of natural vitamins, minerals, protein & enzymes is what helps your body to function properly & gives you that alive feeling! The idea of eating Raw foods is to eat as many enzyme rich foods as you can. This I will explain in another post.

Eating the best possible food for you is just the beginning of the magic that Living Foods give you!

So, how about this week you add some more living foods into your diet. Add some of those gorgeous sprouts into your salads that you may not have tried before. Or maybe it is just having a salad for one meal for a change.

I also encourage you to think about that snack you may normally eat & change it from a processsed food to a raw food. Is it a biscuit or doughnut? Or something else that you KNOW isn't good for you. Instead how about have a piece of fruit or some gorgeous fresh nuts.

Whatever it is, really taste how that living foods tastes to you.
I know when I eat a juicy ripe mango it tastes suculent to me. When I eat Raspberries they taste decadent to me. When I bite into a crisp apple I know that this is fuel for me.

How does your favourite Living Food really taste is to you?

With love, warmth & radiance
