There are so many benefits to eating raw foods. When you do not cook foods past a certain temperature ( 115 f.) you do not kill the living enzymes. That is why the raw food lifestyle is also called the ” Living Food” life style. Here is a bunch of articles on how life raw helps with your beauty, health, energy, aging, weight loss, and over all happiness! If you are already a vegan, you should try raw for a week, just to see, you will be addicted to your new found energy! Have a Rawesome day!

I’ve heard people say that it feels more untreated to them. Personally, though I like some things raw, I really take pleasure in cooking and baking, and in general, hot food…

Health. I attempted to go raw vegan(more specifically, 80/10/10 raw vegan) and I still am. It’s been tough, because I have 0 will power and don’t know how to deal with stress. o.0

I really want to go 80/10/10, and this time have it be permanent. I could eat all the tasty fruit I sought after and still drop weight very quickly(lost a lot of water weight at first because i cut out salt and fruit and vegetables are so water rich), and like people have said, I felt so much better.

I’m a raw vegan because I believe that it was our untreated diet ( there weren’t stoves, ovens or microwaves in the Backyard of Eden). I like the way it makes me feel. Not just physically but emotionally, it clears my mind, it opens my consciousness. Exercise seems simpler, and more fluent, I feel more centered. If you haven’t gone raw, you won’t know what I mean, but it just feels right.

Usually, it’s for health wits. There are some enzymes and nutrients that are ruined by heat. Raw folks want to get those intact, so they don’t cook their food. There are some environmental benefits, namely the fact that most raw vegans prefer organic food (and a excellent handful try to eat local as well) for the boost in nutrients.
