What Is Raw & Living Food?

Living and Raw foods are uncooked, fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, and sprouted grains.
These raw foods can be eaten whole or combined to make the healthiest, most delicious meals. When foods are raw, they are very high in enzymes.

What Are Enzymes?

Enzymes are proteins that accelerate metabolic reactions in the body. They are involved in every single bodily function from digestion to heart function and even thinking. The 3 main categories of enzymes are:

1. Digestive Enzymes (ones that work on food digestion)
2. Metabolic Enzymes (involved in every other bodily process)
3. Food Enzymes (enzymes inherited by living foods)

Enzymes are the key to life. Without them you die. And because they are used up in metabolic processes, they must replenish if you wish to live a long and healthy life. Because enzymes and energy expenditure go hand and hand, enzymes need to be constantly replenished. The more you use, the faster you age and decay.

It is also important to remember that enzymes are very specific to which substrates they act on. For instance, the enzyme AMYLASE works on digesting starch but not protein, while the PROTEASE and PEPSIN enzymes work on protein and nothing else. So this element is specificity is important when discussing the role of enzymes.

Why Are Enzymes Important?

Many of the intractable diseases have two causes. The first is the chief culprit: enzyme deficiency form undernourishment. It works in the body by setting the stage and predisposing the body for ill health.

A deficiency of enzymes speeds the development of cancer, heart disease, arthritis, premature aging and other conditions.

The second more highly advertised ?cause? of disease consists of environmental culprits including: x-rays bacteria, carcinogens, tobacco and many others.

Consuming foods that are void of enzymes such as cooked foods, refined foods, and nonfoods (i.e. coffee, refined sugars, processed and fabricated foods, etc.) all place high demands on our pancreas to secrete more digestive enzymes. According to the Law of Adaptive Secretion of Digestive Enzymes put forth by Dr. Howell (of John Hopkins University), the pancreas will only produce/secrete the necessary amount and type of enzymes required to digest a particular food. For instance, if you eat a meal that is solely meat-based, your pancreas will secrete an appropriate amount of protease and lipase to digest the protein and fat in the mean, respectively. And because of the lack of carbohydrates in this meal, there will be little to no secretion of amylase (which helps carbohydrate digestion).

How Can We Get Enzymes Into Our Bodies?

It?s very simple! EAT FOODS THAT ARE HIGH IN ENZYMES!

These are foods that have not been altered by the heating/cooking process. Enzymes are very fragile and are easily altered and destroyed. Enzyme activity increases as the temperature rises but only until about 110 degrees F, above which enzymes become denatured and destroyed. Therefore, to get the fill potency that enzymes offer, you need to eat more whole, fresh, living foods. PERIOD!
