Raw Food Diet

The Raw Food Diet involves eating foods that are uncooked, unprocessed, and often organic, emphasizing fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, and raw dairy or meats. The idea is that cooking can destroy nutrients and enzymes beneficial for health. Advocates believe this diet can improve digestion, increase energy, and promote weight loss. However, it requires careful planning to ensure adequate intake of all essential nutrients, and certain raw foods can carry a risk of bacterial contamination. It's often followed as a lifestyle choice for health, ethical, or environmental reasons. Consulting a healthcare professional is recommended before starting to ensure nutritional balance.
