Going Raw

Written by Rebecca Heaton
Posted Aug 29, 2008

More and more people are no longer cooking their food. Instead, they’re  turning to a raw food diet, eating raw greens, fruit, nuts and seeds. 

According to proponents, the heated oils of cooked foods are not as healthful as unheated oils. Also, heating food above 116 degrees Fahrenheit destroys the enzymes in food that can assist in digestion and absorption. The Complete Idiot’s Guide to Eating Raw can help you learn more about this diet.

The authors, Mark Reinfeld, an award-winning chef and author, and Bo Rinaldi, a co-author with Reinfeld of Vegan World Fusion Cuisine, share how raw foods can heal your body and boost energy, how raw foods have anti-aging properties, how a raw food diet can help with weight loss, plus more than 100 recipes such as Stuffed Multicolor Bell Peppers with Lentil Walnut Pate, Live Tacos and Chocolate Hazelnut Cake. $16.95.
