Raw food is considered far healthier than cooked foods, since
food in its raw state which, is considered alive, retains all the vitamins, minerals and enzymes you would ordinarily lose through cooking.
The theory goes that cooking
foods at a high degree (even though the temperature to us is warm to the touch), destroys the enzymes in our food.
As we age, our enzyme source is depleted, so eating a living raw food diet is considered an excellent way of replenishing these and ensuring good health nutrition.
It is claimed that the many benefits of following aliving food health diet include relief or reduction in ailments and conditions such as:
Cancers

physical and mental state, improved appearance of skin, enhanced digestion, a stronger immune system, detoxification and weight loss. Indeed, countless women, including some celebrities
swear by the living raw food diet detox as being an effective means of weight loss and looking good.
While the above represent a long list of raw food health benefits from following a raw food diet menu, these are reported to be but a small example of the numerous other benefits of raw food dieting
and ultimately, raw food health.
