Is a Raw Food Diet Radical?
There are so many doctors, nutritionists, dieticians, health hobbyists and lobbyists out there that bash the raw food diet and its promoters. They say that a raw food diet isn’t balanced, is lacking nutrients, results in fanaticism…
Ultimately, they conclude that a raw diet is a radical approach to health.
But the truth is, the raw food diet isn’t radical at all! Here’s why…
Everyone knows the benefits of fruits and veggies
We have all been told since childhood the importance of fresh produce in a balanced diet. Our parents did everything they could to get us to eat our fruits and veggies.
Chips were replaced with apples and PB in our lunch boxes. Broccoli was smothered in yellow cheese sauce. Berries were stuck between layers of graham cracker and whipped cream.
If you asked a random person off the street what the healthiest foods are, 90% of them would say fruits and vegetables.
Try this: go to google and search “healthy food.” Click the image tab. Almost *every* picture on the first page showcases fruits and vegetables!
And what about commercials? There’s the “9-a-day” ads. The Ocean Spray cranberry juice ads. All the different foods promoting their “one serving of fruit/vegetables.” And we can’t forget the ever-popular “should have had a V8” ads.
So what’s the big deal?!?
If the majority agrees that fruits and vegetables are the healthiest foods for humans, is the idea of eating them exclusively such a leap? I don’t think so.
Think of it this way: if you knew the absolute *best* way to clean your carpet, would you give any other method the time of day? Of course not!
If you have the best, forget the rest!
Do you want to know what IS radical about raw foods?
The results! The amazing benefits you can experience from going raw are just that…amazing!
Here are a few that I can attest to…
o Improved digestion
o Weight loss
o Better mental focus
o No more muscle cramps!
o Loss of joint pain
o Much more energy
o Deeper, restful sleep
o Reduction in daily hair loss
o Softer, smoother skin
o Less chance of burning from sun exposure
o No more stinky sweat!
I could go on and on.
My point here is that the results speak for themselves. If you doubt the validity of a raw vegan diet or think that it is *too radical*, just give it a try! Make the effort for a good 30 days and see what raw foods can do for you.
I guarantee you will see lasting results quicker than you could have ever imagined.
Go raw and be fit,
