The best diet of all is high in simple unadulterated plant
foods, eaten mostly or all raw. When you eat food in its natural,
living state, you are taking in the life force of the plant,
as well as the vitamins, minerals, proteins and carbohydrates.
Living foods provide nutrition of the highest form –
vibrant, alive and the way nature created it.
Animals in the wild that eat natural raw foods do not have
the level of chronic degenerative illness now experienced
by humans and the pets that they we keep and feed. The ability
of a 100% raw foods diet to achieve deep healing has been
well documented, and a high raw diet of around 80% raw foods
is a proven way to maintain health.
Living foods have their subtle energy fields intact and their
nutrients are in the form created by nature.
When foods are heated (cooked) changes take place in their
chemistry, making them less nutritious and often harder to
digest. For example, when you cook proteins, you can only
assimilate half of the protein present.
Living foods have enzymes and life force, and this contributes
to the enhancement of our own life force. Many valuable nutrients
are destroyed by cooking and in some cases, new substances
are formed that are damaging to health.
Living foods nutrition requires us to learn new ways of food
preparation, so that simple natural foods can be appreciated
as they are, or transformed into living creations that delight
the palate.

your diet.
