Raw-vegan food is considered healthy because of its living enzymes.

Raw-vegan diet is similar to vegan diet (a diet that excludes meat and dairy) and adds the additional caveat that all food should be eaten raw.

Raw-vegan diet consists of fruits, vegetables, sprouted grains and legumes, seeds and nuts.

Raw-vegan food is considered healthy because of its living enzymes.

The enzymes in food aid in digestion and are destroyed at 118 degrees of heat.

Therefore in order to digest cooked food your body has to use its own metabolic enzymes which takes energy from your body and leaves you feeling sluggish.

Heating also depletes food of vitamins and minerals which is why cooked food is thought to lead to excessive food consumption in the body's attempt to gain adequate nutrition.

According to Jinjee Talifero, co-author of The Garden Diet, "Not only does cooked food contain extremely limited nourishment, but it also contains numerous toxins.

Scientists in Sweden recently discovered that heated carbohydrates contain a known toxin which renders water to be classified unfit for drinking when it contains this toxin in far smaller quantities/"

Why eat fruits 30 minutes before meals?

Dr. Hiromi Shinya, a pre-eminent gastroenterologist of USA, recommends eating fruits 30 minutes before meals as often as possible.

Fresh fruits abundant in enzymes digest well and by eating it before meals, it helps the functions of the gastrointestinal system and raises blood sugar level, thus preventing you from overeating.
