The Discovery of (X)
X = Raw Foods
Grand Master Latham [Dr.Aris Latham]
The 2012 Second Edition of Oxford Encyclopedia of Food and Drink in America acclaims:
"The raw food movement owes much to Dr. Aris Latham, a native of Panama. He is considered to be the father of gourmet ethical raw foods cuisine in America.
Dr. Latham debuted his raw food creations in 1979, when he started Sunfired Foods, a live food company in Harlem, New York.
In the years since, he has trained thousands of raw food chefs and added innumerable recipes to his repertoire."
It wasn’t like I hadn’t eaten raw foods before I came across Grand Master Latham but he inspired me to dive further into the incredibly powerful healing aspects of raw food in comparison to cooked food. Simply put, the more nutrients the better! Cooking food denatures it, killing and eliminating most of, if not all of, the nutrients.
Specifically the way we cook food in America often leaves it tasting good but nutrient deficient. This not only leaves our bodies nutrient deficient, but also puts food in it the body can’t do anything with, resulting in over fermentation(Increased mold or alcohol creation) or over putrefaction; the process needed to break down dead animal flesh inside the body. I won’t get into what putrefaction inside a hue-mans body causes here, but lets just say it’s not nothing nice, and that we are living in the consequences of putting the body through a process it was never designed to go through in the first place.
Just to be clear, I am not advocating a completely raw livit. Though 95% of what I eat is indeed raw fruit or veggies, I am incredibly addicted to steamed broccoli, and I love rice and sprouted lentils as well as stemmed sweet potatoes. But my staples are raw fruits(Mostly Fresh/Some dried), and nuts/seeds. It may seem boring but man does it feel great!! And I am in the firm opinion that there is nothing better than a fresh mango and coconut water smoothie.Now, I bet your wondering, like most do, if a mostly fruit livit is too much sugar? No! It’s not, and I’ll address the misconception of sugar from fruit in another thought. Until then just know, the body thrives on RAW fruit!
RAW FRUIT IS A HIGH FREQUENCY FOOD!
THE BODY HEALS ON RAW FRUIT!!
THE BODY WILL EVOLVE ON RAW FRUIT!!!
