Different Raw Foods for Different Lifestyles

Raw Food Lifestyle Choices

There are many different types of Raw Food Enthusiasts, but they all have eating raw food in common. This raw food review discusses a few of the most common descriptions, although most people associate a "raw food" diet with eating fresh fruits and vegetables (a raw vegan diet). Refer back to this website for future raw food reviews on how to start a raw food diet and things like raw food diet weight loss and raw food diet detox.

Raw foodism (or rawism) is a lifestyle promoting the consumption of un-cooked, un-processed, and often organic foods as a large percentage of the diet. If 60-100% of a person’s total food consumption is raw food, he/she is considered a raw foodist or living foodist.

Raw foodists typically believe that the greater the percentage of raw food in the diet, the greater the health benefits. Raw foodism or a raw food diet is usually equated with raw veganism in which only raw plant foods are eaten, but other raw foodists emphasize raw meat and other raw animal products.

 

Depending on the type of lifestyle and results desired, raw food diets may include a select on of raw fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds (including sprouted whole grains such as gaba rice), eggs, fish (such as sashimi), meat (such as carpaccio), and non-pasteurized/non-homogenized dairy products (such as raw milk, raw cheese and raw yogurt).

Raw foodists can be divided between those that advocate raw vegetarianism or raw veganism, those that advocate a raw omnivorous diet, and those that advocate a diet of only raw animal foods (carnivorous).

Adherents of raw foodism believe that consumption of uncooked foods encourages weight loss and prevents and/or heals many forms of sickness and chronic diseases. Some medical studies have indicated that different forms of raw food diets may lead to various health problems, while other studies have shown positive health outcomes with such diets.
