ENERGY FROM THE GROUND UP!
A seed only requires water, some nutrients from the soil, and a whole lot of energy from the sun to become a nourishing plant that can sustain life. Producing animal protein uses far more resources to deliver an equivalent amount of protein. By replacing animal protein with plant protein, for just one meal a day, we save enough resources to give five more people a serving of plant protein. Plant protein is also better for our health, and better for the environment.
VegiDay is part of a growing movement that encourages us to support a sustainable future by choosing to eat more plant-based foods.
What Does “RAW” Mean?
Contrary to popular belief, raw food can actually be cooked/heated up to a certain temperature. There is however, some debate as to what acceptable maximum temperatures can be used and still considered ‘raw’. The most widely accepted guidelines state that as long as the cooking temperature stays below 118 degrees Fahrenheit, the food can still be considered raw. This allows for a lot of dehydrating of foods, a staple in raw food diets.
WHY IT'S CATCHING ON! THE HEALTH BENEFITS OF A RAW DIET
Phytonutrients, Vitamins And Minerals
Probably the most obvious and perhaps profound benefit of a raw diet is the increase in phytonutrients, vitamins and minerals. When naturally nutritionally dense foods are cooked, the very aspect that makes these foods healthier is significantly destroyed, or damaged. Raw food-ists have an increased intake in micro and macro nutrients, and antioxidants, which are important for disease prevention and overall better health.
Enzymes
Enzymes digest or breakdown our food. Our body produces and secretes enzymes for digestion as we eat, but food itself often comes with its own enzymatic effects, the most powerful of those are in raw fruits and vegetables. Cooked fruits and vegetables no longer possess this same enzyme activity.
Alkalinity
Cooking makes food more acidic. Combine that with the fact that highly processed foods, foods high in refined sugars, many animal proteins, and cooked grains (among many other aspects of a typical North American diet) also promote acidity in the body, and its no wonder that our acid/base balance is typically out of whack! Why does it matter? Enzymatic reactions are not only heat sensitive, but pH sensitive, meaning digestion is compromised in an overly acidic environment. Our body retaliates by leaching calcium from our bones, increasing risk for osteoporosis and osteoarthritis. Raw diets shift the body back to a more alkaline state!
Digestion
Cooked foods take longer to digest. This can be taxing on the body, and lead to toxic accumulation due to poor elimination. Moreover, a diet high in processed foods can increase inflammation in the gut, potentially leading to a whole slew of health concerns. Optimal digestion is truly at the root of all health. More nutrients, more enzymes and faster breakdown all mean a healthier digestive system, ultimately meaning a healthier you!
